Nothing really. It's just some nice to haves. A fan to help keep the phone cool and it activates the picture display on your phone so it'll show a slide show while sitting there.. maybe a couple other little software things?

Overnight use, this thing doesn't make any sense. Not sure if the Pixel uses adaptive charging when wireless?
Looks like the non pixel chargers do "up to 12W" which is more than enough for overnight. On thr third party stuff and 23W for the official.orbitdesign wrote: ↑ Overnight use, this thing doesn't make any sense. Not sure if the Pixel uses adaptive charging when wireless?
It has 3 modes: quiet, max and adaptive.orbitdesign wrote: ↑ Overnight use, this thing doesn't make any sense. Not sure if the Pixel uses adaptive charging when wireless?
Might be a dumb question but can this charge through an otterbox case?
i have this Anker charger that i got on amazon for twenty-bucks. the adaptive feature works on my pixel 5 on it but you must use the alarm clock feature so that the phone knows how long it has to charge. it has never been a problem for meorbitdesign wrote: ↑ Overnight use, this thing doesn't make any sense.

i have my pixel set up to listen for "ok google" so it works like a google home as well.
If only the Samsung Matter hub can fast charge the Pixel. I have the Samsung Super Fast wireless charger, but it can only charge my Pixel 6 at about 300mA. I read that the Pixel is very picky at fast wireless charger.Ludwig187 wrote: ↑ You should wait next month for this

You need the Pixel Stand 2nd Gen in order to get the maximum wireless charging speed on the Pixel 7 / Pro of 20/23w.
there is no pixel 5xl are you talking about the pixel 5a? because that doesn't have wireless charging.robertbarker wrote: ↑ i have this Anker charger that i got on amazon for twenty-bucks. the adaptive feature works on my pixel 5XL on it but you must use the alarm clock feature so that the phone knows how long it has to charge. it has never been a problem for me

basically, the anker one i got is just a bit slower than the pixel one but much, much cheaper. since i put the phone on the stand when i go to bed, it doesn't really matter. plus, there's no fan making noise. i also have the screen saver clock set to go on when the phone is charging so that makes my bedside alarm clock redundant.
i like the plain looks of this Anker one as well.
