Picking the right third-party charger for the Pixel 9 Pro XL is nigh on impossible, thanks to some very specific power requirements.

    It’s literally following the usb-pd spec for any type of usb type c cable. Then getting a charger that supports 20v on PPS.

    This 30w Google charger I’m looking at now does 20v usb-pd but only 11v@3A on PPS. It’s built to a budget.

      To be fair, USB, thunderbolt, power delivery, quick charge and whatever else are a nightmare for everyone to navigate through, even if you know they exist. Without that knowledge I think it’s impossible to find the correct cable/charger combination for fast charging.

      Oh and don’t forget about SuperVOCC and other super specific manufacturer standards.
