“#Google Finally Explains Pixel 6\u2019s Slow Charging Times”<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro have been released to lots of praise from critics and buyers alike. However, some have complained about the charging speed of the device, and Google has finally explained.<\/p>\n

Android Authority<\/a> first discovered that the Pixel 6 wasn\u2019t achieving the full speed offered by its 30W charger. It found that the phone was drawing around\u00a022W of power, which is certainly not what people were hoping to see from their brand new phones.<\/p>\n

Google addressed the issue in a Community Support post<\/a>, and basically, the company says the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are designed to draw 21W and 23W of power, respectively.<\/p>\n

As far as why the phones are drawing less power than their charging bricks can output, Google says it chose battery longevity instead of charging speed. \u201cA battery can be designed for high energy density, or for fast charging power capability, which requires trading off capacity to minimize battery degradation,\u201d explains a Google spokesperson.<\/p>\n

Google also says it optimized the phone to charge faster when the battery is low and slower when full. The spokesperson said, \u201cWe\u2019ve\u00a0optimized Pixel\u2019s lithium-ion battery for high charge rates when the battery level is low. Pixel 6 can get up to 50% in around 30 minutes (with Google\u2019s 30W USB-C Power Charger), and quickly reaches up to 80% in about an hour, depending on device usage and temperature.\u201d<\/p>\n

Google isn\u2019t technically withholding anything advertised from the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, as the company doesn\u2019t actually state that the devices are capable of 30W charging. However, offering a 30W charger for the phone does slightly mislead buyers, as you\u2019d think offering that charger would mean the phone is compatible.<\/p>\n

Between this and the slow fingerprint scanner, it does seem like Google\u2019s Pixel 6 might not be as perfect as we first thought, but it is still a fantastic phone.<\/p>\n
