Hi.
I read some different ticket and opinions for a good charger for Pixel 2 XL but, at the end, which are the better cables and chargers for this phone?
In Italy we cannot find the original charger and I need anotherone.
Thanks.

Hi kapapunk,
I bought this, Anker Quick Charge 3.0:
https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B01CHYHUEU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have to say that I had to change it because it dind't work fine.
I haven't already change it but I think I'll buy an Anker with Quick Charger.
Did you have other charger or cable?
Bye!

Hello friends, I bought a new Pixel 2 XL behind a seller, the same sent an OEM charger sold at Amazon. Some users commend, and others speak poorly. I plan on paying $ 35 and buy the official charger directly from the Google store. I do not think of paying for an Aukey or Choetech at the moment. Despite being great chargers, compatible with PD 18w. Is this Type C Type C cable from Google that comes with the charger good? I visualized type C 3.1 cables with certification recommended by a Google engineer, plus the cable itself of the company do not know if it is good.
About the OEM loader that I have, it would be the one according to the link ..
Google USB-C Charging Rapidly Charger for 2nd & 3rd Gen Pixel devices (18W 3A Charger + 3 Foot USB-C, C-C Cable) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MR7M2I5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_OLC9BbGQMCT3N
The Google OEM charger is probably the best USB PD charger for this phone. It definitely supports the 9V profile needed to quick charge the P2XL. Don't get too excited, though. You'll never see anything close to 18W of charge. It's capped at ~10.5W at the phone, supposedly to eke out a little more longevity from the battery. I measured it myself with an inline USB-C power meter. Who knows if this is actually effective? OnePlus certainly doesn't seem to care about increasing current draw. They've charged at [email protected] since the OnePlus 3 and I haven't heard any reports of premature battery degradation yet.
Bro i live in italy too. Any 9v charger will do. And for cables. Buy aukey from amazon. Hehe.. I have lots of type of cables tho.
Ciao

I had a some problem with faulty unit.but Tronsmart rep sent me replacement so now i am so happy with my car charger.super fast and reliable. thx again
It actually does work !
Used mine for the last 3 month without any issue :
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Qual...-2-0-Car-Charger-for-Samsung/32365853651.html
Actually the Tronsmart car charger is one of the few that will charge your phone, and allow constant screen on for navigation.
Probably the best choice around.

i bought mine from alibaba. it is original but doesn't work in my asus zenfone 2. Green battery show +(fast charging) but lock screen doesn't show fast charging message as it shows on original wall charger. So it is quite expensive charger. i paid 19$ but doesn't work. it charges slower than none-fast car charger. just let you know

LOL. The one on the lock screen disappears when you hit 70-80%. Only the + sign on the batt icon will appear. Also, charging from 80-100% will be slower than 1-79%. That is how Quick Charge 2.0 works.

aukey is good but Tronsmart is the best, work very well, when have a promotions in aliexpress we wins more the price low.
Tronsmart has so many models. I do not need 4 ports though. Which other models would support our phone?
I also just recently bought the [Qualcomm Certified] Tronsmart Quick Charge 2.0 18W USB Car Charger. I haven't tried it yet but based on reviews I've read so far I can't wait to start using it & see if it's as advertised. Thanks for sharing.
Can this be used with a USB-C cable to charge the LG G5?
This will be my first usb type c device. I'm sure a lot of you are upgrading from the original pixel. Can you guys recommend cables and chargers that you have used that you liked? I'm sure there are a bunch of people in my situation it can help to stock up on this stuff before the phone comes. And yes I know there is a list of approved cables, etc.
I'd look at Anker or Aukey for chargers. They should have a couple PD-2 chargers. They also sell the required cables.
The Pixel 2 XL will come with cables and a charger in the box though.

I would never get a cheap Chinese/no name version. From what I've read, if it doesn't have a 56ohm resistor, it has damaged phones.
You can also check on Amazon and read reviews from those who have purchased. Not worth saving a few bucks to potentially damage your $900+ phone.

If its OEM, I don't think there will be any issues. I'm sure people may have multiple USB-C items and I'm sure these news outlet and reviewers have multiple USB-C cables and plugs that they just use the same one over and over.
DO not get any usb c cable/charger so many of them don't follow the standards
Only get one that has been tested
bad cables and charger in best case can charge slowly
in worst case can damage the phone or explode
follow https://plus.google.com/collection/s0Inv
and only use good cables
from the top of my head, the good ones are from

As far as I can tell, Benson Leung finds issues with every Aukey product he reviews. I'm contemplating the BlitzWolf BW-S10, as I've had no issues with the BW-S5 or BW-CB3, and their reputation appears to be clean. The supplied cable is USB-C to USB-C, right?

What spec car charger is required for the Pixel 2 XL? I currently use a Scosche ReVolt Dual with 12W/2.4A per port that works well with my Pixel XL. But it won't charge my Pixel 2 XL at all.
I ordered this one. Supposed to have PowerDrive I'm pretty sure

I just don't believe this phone charges very fast which is making me change my style of charging. I normally only charged on the way to work and way home (20 min each way) with my S8+ and kept it above 90% normally but this one is so slow charging using Waze for traffic I might have to charge at office or home
The Belkin car charger that Google sells on their site is available on Amazon for $17. That's what I got and it works great.

I finally broke down and asked Google Pixel 2 support. "Richard" said that the 2 XL needs 15W and 2A minimum to charge.
That page you gave doesn't show your charger's output per port. But assuming all of them are equal, it only gives 13.5W per port. Not enough for the 2 XL.
I bought 2 of these last night. Great limited time price last night

Not all type c provides fast charg it needs to be type c to c also capable to provide above 15w (5v * 3A)
Yes this. Although, my Nexus 5X one which is 5v3a does fast charge pretty much the same as the stock Px8el 2 XL one. The Pixel 2 XL has been restricted and doesn't take advantage of it's 9v2a charger rating.

You either just paid or are in the process of paying off a near $1,000US (£750) device. Do you really want to risk damage to your home or the device because you want to save a pound?
Spend the £30 or so and get the correct charger.
Have you tried asking Google for a replacement charger under warranty?

True but any 15w USB power adapter and a USB-C cable should do the job just fine. It's never been an issue for me.

Not all USB-C cables are the same. The one we need has to be at least USB-C 2.0. The effects from using the wrong spec cable are unknown to me, but I'm not about to find out either. The potential for damaging the device is why I spent the extra money and got an Anker 6' cable that matches the specs of the 3' cable included with my charger.
Some good info here.

Yh for sure as long as type a to c can deliver 15w it will do the job but not all type a to c can thats why i recommend type c to c for its capability.
I always go with either Goggle directly or the Anker ones that have PD enabled for faster charging.

the 30w is probably split between the two ports, the USB C PD is 18W max
This Spigen is pretty good, better and cheaper than the Anker linked above but does not work in all cars like mine. My 2014 Mazda SUV, it does not work in any of the 3 ports. The charger is too short and gets thicker so it does not go all the way in. It works in my 2017 Mazda though. I had to return it since it was for the SUV. I'm pretty sad about it.
