Wish I would of seen this before I bought mine off of Ebay.
I also bought the wireless charger off of Ebay for less than Amazon
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Qi-Standard...S_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&hash=item2ec93717c8

Very true, but the one on amazon is 2 day shipping for prime people or orders over 25 and the one on amazon as charging output of 1000mah while the one on ebay can only do 650. Now I know the Nokia charging plate can only do 750, but it's nice being able to charge faster if you happen to find a charging plate that does do 1000mah

Unfortunately Samsung has decided to raise the price of their charge ($60) so the discount no longer works!!! Was going to order it next month but guess ATT/Nokia is going to get my money instead.

Excellent! I look forward to it.

Ok, I installed the wireless charger and set it onto the Nokia pad and works great! the best part is it charges through my case (Neo Hybrid). It does bow the back which does give it some wobble but it isn't bad.
This is showing that the case already started out bowed, so any major bowing is the case, not the charging unit.

the charger pad in place, there is an adhesive pad, but I didn't use it, the tension between the back and battery keeps the pad in place. it does slightly cover up the sim slot and SD card slot.
you can see it a little warped, nothing major, but you can feel it.
Another angle
With the case on, barely noticeable
again barely noticeable
I've read a lot of posts saying this needs to be perfectly centered on the Nokia charger, I can tell you it DOES NOT! here's a couple pictures with it obviously not centered. all you really need to do is make sure the receiver is over the charger. I've tossed my phone onto the pad in a bunch of different directions and it has worked 99% of the time.
you can see it's charging at 640ma, I'm currently at 55% charge so I'd imagine it would reach the full 750 if I was lower.
so I spent approx $80 for 3 of these, receivers for both my S4 and my girlfriends S3 and I'm sold.
Hope this helps!

It was on the same page in the what other customer's bought slider thing. $26.49 + $4.49 shipping so $31 vs $25. Is $6 worth it?

That would be good to know, my phone has been charging at 640ma which isn't the speediest thing in the world, but will fully charge my phone at night. I'm curious if it's the charger which won't go past 640 or the receiver.

Makes me kinda wonder if there is a limiting factor in the phone itself? Don't know much about the process but it would seem strange to me that the amount to charge would really be a gating factor on how much the output of the charger would be...

Unless there's a limiter placed on the connectors for inductive charging I don't see it being a device related limitation. My thought is either Nokia oversold the output current on the charger, because of my case I'm seeing a 110mah drop in inductive charging, the receiver I put in the phone was oversold (saying it's 1000ma, but really only 640) or the app I used to measure the current is wrong.
With Actionx1 getting in the 1000ma receiver, we'll be able to eliminate the receiver as the potential culprit. When I get home tonight I'll attempt to charge without the case to see if that makes any difference.
Either way though this is just an exercise in curiosity for me. I'm happy as a clam only paying about $19 for each of the charging pads and they work great.

I have that charger. It's the worst one out of all that I have. I also have the samsung charger and one I got off ebay (similar to this: Qi Wireless Charger)
The GMYLE doesn't produce enough range to power through an otterbox case, while the others both do.
It does charge decently, but heats up my devices more than the others.
The red charge indicator glow is also very obvious and bleeds through the white casing at night. Not crazy bright but obvious enough.

I got my wireless charger adapter for my S4:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D3K7UZW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got NFC to work after I removed the stickers from both sides.
Wireless charging still works with this case on:

[SPAM] rapid charger that actually works for the Nexus 6p!!

Just like everyone else I've been searching for a good aftermarket charger for my phone. I purchased the Choetech rapid adapter along with the cable (sold separately) and it works beautifully.. The Nexus 6p shows rapid charging on the home screen and Ampere showed the same.
How does that compare to the OEM charger that came with the Nexus 6p? The OEM charger charged at 2920ma, while the Choetech adapter and cable charged at 2840ma. So as you can see it's right on par with the OEM charger.
Build Quality:
The build quality is exactly what you expect to received from Choetech. The body of the charger is similar to the OEM charger with smooth sides and flat top and bottom. There's branding on the the front as you see in the pictures, with specifications information next to the electrical prongs. As for the cable there's more Choetech branding on each end, but it's not intrusive and blends in with the cable. The cable material is thick which is a very good thing, as it should be able to provide adequate power and durability. I'm very happy with this cable and plan to buy another soon. Here's my setup and I did a quick video review as well. Be warned I've read reviews showing that some users received a 2.4v model only... If you watch my videos you will clearly see my charger says 3A/5V and it charges at that speed.
<MODERATOR EDITED - SPAM REFERRAL LINKS DELETED>

The quality on this cable is durable. It does pull 3A, as described, without any issues. charged my phone from 17% to 100% in
1 hour 20 min. It charges just as fast as google's provided cable.
and for the USB type-A to type C cable is also reliable. Checkr app tested and confirmed it is safe for the 2.4A (slower)rapid
charging if the power adapter can support upto 2.4A.
I will recommend this to anyone who wants a spare cable for USB-C just like me. leave one at home, and take this with me
anywhere I go to charge the device.

Is it just me or does that cable appear to struggle to charge as well as OEM? Your comparison graph shows the goggle cable working consistently better and the choetech cable never reaching the current the oem cable does.

Well, if you see the graph more closely my phone had less battery percentage for the Google's cable. I believe hungrier the battery, faster it takes. You will never see full capacity current draw at higher battery percentage.

I just bought this USB-C charger with CC cable.
It's on it's way...can't wait to test it.

You also need to make sure you order the updated version. The first version didn't comply with type c standards.

Might just go with the one on the Google website now, since it's only a few dollars more and it'll probably ship faster. Amazon says it'll arrive after Christmas now.

So you're saying the cable for sure goes up to 2.4A? Your pictures aren't showing up - just wanted to make sure.
I asked about USB-A to C before and someone was very adamant in saying, "The USB standard for an in spec Type A to C cable will charge at 1.5A. "

What does Benson Leung say about this product?

I don't have quick charger 2.0 brick or equivalent. The most I got is a Samsung brick that goes 2A at the most and I did get near that. When I get a hand on better adapter, I will test it out.

For 3A fast charging speeds, USB C Charger with CC cable is the only way
Well, I'm pretty sure that simply put, A to C reaches only 2.4A at maximum, no matter what wall charger you use. If you want full 3A fast charging speeds, C to C is the only way.
I purchased and tried their USB C wall charger with C to C cable. I wasn't disappointed. They are well built and work fine ... at almost the same fast speed as the OEM Charger.

I'm not a fan of the Google charger because it's hard wired. Wires tends to go bad before the block so its a cheaper fix than buying a whole new charger.

Odd.. do you mean the model you've got has the cable connected to the charger (i.e not removable)? The international edition (H1512) I got in Hong Kong while travelling is detachable and is type C on either end. I didnt' realize there were variations with the included accessories.

Agreed, wires do likely wear faster. But should you expect either to go bad in less than a couple of years if handled reasonably?

Using a physical power meter I've verified that the Nexus 6P will only charge at 1.5A at 5V with standard 2A/2.4A chargers (I've tried 3-4 different USB A chargers). These are far more accurate than ampere as ampere measures net current, current in minus consumed current, not just the incoming current from the charger.
I'm not aware of a physical device that measures power through a type C cable other than the twinkie device that benson mentions and is several hundred dollars.

I think he/she is referring to the extra one you buy from the accessories on the Google 6p site. The one included is a removable USB C-C cord.

If you read the Amazon comments so people where saying they received a different model than the one I've reviewed. As for fast charging with the Choetech after day 3 I still have no issues. It charges my phone from 1% to 100% in around 90 minutes.

[Review] Tronsmart Presto 12000mAh USB-C Fast Charging & QC3.0 Powerbank

Disclaimer: I was sent these items in exchange for an unbiased review.
Tronsmart Presto 12000mAh Powerbank
Unboxing and First look
Overview
I have been searching for a nice powerbank to charge my Nexus 6P since I bought it back in September of last year. Tronsmart finally made what everyone (in my opinion) has been looking for in a battery pack; this battery offers both QC 3.0 and Type-C fast charging due to the way it’s designed. I’ve tried a few different battery/power banks before this one for the Nexus, yet all of them that offer a Type-C port break the USB specification.
Tronsmart claims this powerbank is one of the most efficient on the market giving you the ability to maximize the power it stores to charge your phone. I haven’t tested that claim yet, but I fully intend to do so and publish my results below. I also own a 12000mAh Aukey powerbank, and a 10400mAh Choetech one as well. I do have other batteries, but their capacities aren’t similar enough to compare here.
What’s in the Box
-Tronsmart Presto 12000mAh Powerbank
-Documentation
-USB A-C charging cable with the proper 56k ohm resistor
Build & Design
In the typical Tronsmart style they have opted for a glossy plastic border alongside a matte plastic body. The plastic feels nice, and has a subtle texture on the matte section giving it a more refined feel. I appreciate how Tronsmart carried over their design language across multiple products (chargers, powerbanks etc.) which gives the end user a familiar feel to their products.
On the front of the powerbank you will find two ports; the first is your standard USB-A that offers QC 3.0, while the second only charges via USB-C fast charging. I like how they separated the circuits to offer both standards in one nicely designed battery especially for people like myself that own a Quick-Charge enabled phone (QC 1.0/2.0/3.0).
Along the side you will find a power button that turns on the battery for when you want to charge your phone(s).
Charging breakdown by port
Input (Type-C): DC:5V/3A
Output (Type-C Port): DC 5V 3.0A Max
Output (QC3.0): DC 5V-6.5V/3A 6.5V-9V/2A 9V-12V/1.5A
Summary
This has quickly become my new go to powerbank given the wide range of charging options it offers for both of my phones.
I also really appreciated the compact design, solid construction, and consistent styling offered.
I will follow up this review with a battery test to see how efficient it is while charging my Nexus 6P over USB-C and my S7 Edge via the USB-A QC 3.0 port. I’ll also add a short review of the braided USB A-C cable I was sent tomorrow.
Comparison: Tronsmart Presto vs Choetech, and Aukey Powerbanks
Tronsmart Braided USB A-C Cable
I own a ton (literally/physically) of USB A-C, C-C and MicroUSB cables given the number of phones I have. I first wanted to say how I’m impressed with the quality of this particular cable because it’s built well. I also own the I-Orange USB A-C, and C-C cables, but those are more expensive even though they are also high quality. The Tronsmart one features a nice braided nylon sleeve giving it more durability in the long run couple with nice aluminum housings for each end. The cable offers data transfer at USB 2.0 speeds (480mbs) which is perfect for the Nexus 5X/6P, or any device that doesn’t support USB 3.1 over Type-C. I have no complaints about the cable, and given how it meets the USB spec with the proper 56k ohm-m resistor you shouldn’t run into any issues.

Looks great! The main thing I'd like to know is how fast the 6P charges through the usb-c port in comparison to my oem usb-c cable & brick. So far I haven't seen a power bank that actually charges quickly through the usb-c port and this looks promising!

Is this available to buy yet:?

Sounds great... What's the dimensions and weight? Nm, here it is:
Product Dimensions 7.5 x 3.5 x 1.2 inches
Item Weight 10.7 ounces

you guys sure don't like to use google.

I'm going to post some more updates to the OP this afternoon. It is available for purchase on Amazon, and other places from what I've seen, but XDA doesn't like when you post product links in the OP.

Disappointing that this is bigger than Anker's while having only 60% of the capacity.

Here's something i don't understand. Back in November, when you reviewed the 20100mah ravpower, you said

Clearly shows QC3 charging due to the higher current, nearing 3A there. So this included-in-the-box a-c can handle more than 1.5A. Why ?
Does not indicate that 3A is reaching the 6P.
can you post a photo which indicates that close to 3A does reach the 6P.
with earlier banks there was always this doubt whether they were putting out close to 3A or 2.4A.

Went digging around for better photos that showed the specs clear and found one.
Note that it allows to charge devices ie. output using QC3 going up to 12V but will only accept 5v3A on the input. Why ?
No phone is going to require 12V on the input but a charger will certainly benefit from 12V QC3 as you can push over 20W with a suitable charger to charge it instead of 14W. Net result is your wait time to full charge of the power bank reduces by 50%.

Will this show Charging Rapidly when I plug my phone in this? Also, can I use the wall charger and C-C cable my phone came with for charging this power bank? Thanks!

I've just got mine from Amazon and can confirm that it displays CHARGING RAPIDLY. This is only displayed by using the C to C cable which is the one that came with the phone. Hope that answers your question.

I just posted a similar review of the product over on the G5 forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/accessories/tronsmart-presto-12000mah-qc3-0-usb-c-t3415369
This is more from the QC3.0 side of things as I do not have a Nexus, so it may not be as relevant to those on this thread.
One difference I believe I'm seeing between our reviews is that in charging my battery pack, it never went above 2.4/5V. It was measured using basically the same technique (USB-A multimeter plugged into a QC3 adapter, connected into a USB-A to USB-C cable, into the USB-C port of the battery). Maybe I'll try a different QC3 AC adapter.

I picked up this powerbank a couple days ago and ran a simple test to compare the charging speeds between the tronsmart powerbank and my wall charger. Both times, I ran the phone's battery down until it powered itself off before starting the test. Here are the results
Through Wall Charger (with 3rd party USB-C to C cable)
@ 15 min - 22%
@ 30 min - 42%
@ 1 hr - 80%
@ 1 hr 15 min - 91%
@ 1 hr 35 min - 100%
Through Tronsmart Powerbank (with 3rd party USB-C to C cable)
@ 15 min - 17%
@ 30 min - 38%
@ 1 hr - 76%
@ 1 hr 15 min - 90%
@ 1 hr 40 min - 100%
So far, pretty happy with the charging speed.

The USB-C port is only rated for 5V/3A, while the USB-A port is a QC 3.0 port. This is why it will quick charge my S7 Edge over the USB-A port since its using micro USB. I can post more about it when I get home from work tonight.

Didn't get a chance to post what I wanted last night because I got home late from work. I will try to do it today assuming all goes well. For those of you that are curious I managed 2.1 charges using C-C fast charging out of the battery pack resulting in a ~61% battery pack efficiency

just got this and i was not able to get charging rapidly msg on my nexus 6p when using supplied cable or my own a-c cable i purchased from google.
able to get quickcharging with a-c cable on my gf samsung galaxy s6
have not tried the c-c port charging on nexus 6p. will report back with results.

The USB-A port is a Qualcomm Quick Charge port, not a USB-PD port, so you won't get quick charging on the 6P from it.
You need the C-C cable to get quick charging on the Nexus.

Just ordered mine based on this review

I went back and used a different QC3.0 AC charger to charge this battery. This time, it was a nice Tronsmart branded one. The numbers were far better, ~15Ws, about 2.5-2.6A and 5.7V. So the charger you use to juice up the Presto will make a difference in charging times. This confirms the numbers @Pilz was getting.

I am looking for a fast battery charger for Nexus 6p, reading through this thread am I right in assuming then the only way to get a charge above 1.5ish amps is to use a USB C to C connection for the Nexus 6p when charging.

Car charger

I know in the early days of USB-C some chargers were tested to be non 100% compatible and can actually damage your device.
It is about time I got a USB-C car charger.
I should not worry they should all be 100% compatible ?
What have you purchased for your car if you care to recommend something ?

Never mind I see google sells a USB-C Car Charger https://store.google.com/product/belkin_27w_usb_c_car_charger
I am just going to assume it is safe and order one.

Just ordered from Verizon. Thanks!

They actually have a list of safe and not so safe cables and chargers list.

I use this adapter and cable in both cars. Works great.

Should look at Anker, cheaper than what Verizon will get you but really good quality. I have to order a new one cause I forgot to lock the car one night and someone just had to go car hopping that night.

This charger from Belkin supports USB C P.D up to 27W so it will charge the pixels at full 18W rapid charge, reputable brand too.

Yes, that's the same Belkin charger that both Google and Verizon sells. Benson Leung also highly recommends it.

There are no Anker USB Power Delivery chargers?

My blitzwolf usb c car charger fed 2400mA this morning, phone at 66%, got to 99% by the time I got to work. It's as fast as my zerolemon QC wall charger on my lg g4.
Well worth the $5 shipped from banggoods

That's only 10.8W - far cry from the 18W the phone is capable of.

I was pointing out a car charger that works, includes a cabled usb-c and additional usb A port at a low cost of only $5 delivered, that doesn't fry the Pixel.
I am sure you know that the phone and chargers negotiate different levels of charging dependant on several conditions. In particular notice in my post, the phone was at 66% charge, far from depleted, which would have probably triggered a faster charge.
Please show us what car charger you're using and the tests you ran.

How do you know it won't fry the Pixel? It's some cheap thing from China. USB C has had a lot of shady manufacturers. I would not be trusting my phone to that.
You need a USB PD charger. Type C should hit 5V/3A, or 80% of the maximum possible, 9V/2A, but still... it's not guaranteed safe.

Pixel 4 Wireless Chargers Compatible at 10w

Hi guys, I've read that the pixel 4 is actually compatible with wireless charging with 3rd party chargers at 11w! This is great news, but apparently it only works for wireless chargers that are EPP?
I thought it would be good if people could post the best wireless chargers they have found that work at speeds 10w or more!
?

For me i have this from last year. So i don't need to buy new one. I love rotation design

Win! Ordering that puppy now!

Does anyone know if it's possible to use a magnetic car holder without interfering with wireless charging? I suppose there should be a safe portion on the back to have the metal plate?

Apologies for not making my question clear, I'm talking about home wireless chargers while having the metal piece that allows the phone to grip to the magnetic car holder. I'm using this thing:

Maybe some brands have magnetic. But I never saw. Because almost phones have glass in the back. The wireless charger uses silicone. Silicon with glass will have their cohesion among them is strong. I guess it wouldn't be good if the magnets were not easy to pick up and go fast
I hope my answer was clear

dose this need a qc3 brick or will a usb-pd brick work at full speed

In the description page they said Its need QC2.0. And i think it will work well with QC3.0
Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

Belkin has 2 10 watt wireless chargers that work great with my pixel 4 xl.. one is a stand up version that works with the phone both horizontally or vertically. The other is a pad that you put the phone on flat laying down. I picked up 2 of the stands and they're great. And can be found on Amazon for about 57 bucks each.

Found my answer:

If you place the plate at the bottom of the case, wireless charging will still work.

I've received the 3 I ordered of this product.
After doing some research, I noticed something.
The Fast Charging uses the EPP (Extended Power Profile) for the full 11 W delivery. However, if you look at the embossed metal info plat on the back, it says that, if a 9V charger is used, the puck delivers 1.1 A of power wirelessly.
9 V * 1.1 A == 9.9 W of wireless charging power, so it is right at the 10 W charging for the previous Pixel devices, and close enough to the 11 W of the 'new' Fast Wireless Charging that I'm going to stick with these 3 at this price point.
Thank you again for mentioning these.
I've been using one now for ~ 30 minutes and it has charged my Coral (Yes, I have the XL, not the non-XL - I just had the names backwards because of the leaks) fully. Not bad for wireless. An ideal solution for overnight charging.

I don't think this charger supports EPP, according to the WPC's website https://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/products, this Lenovo wireless charger only support basic power profile and not extended power profile (EPP).
So you won't get the full 10W fast wireless charge, it will only wireless charge the Pixel 4 at the slower 5W rate.

Yeah, the Fast charging I was referring to the phone. Not the charger. It definitely doesn't officially have EPP.
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way I can verify what power is actually being supplied to the phone a week as being used by the phone to wirelessly charge.
As soon as I find out I will test officially and post results.

One failure and one success on fast wireless charging to report. I tried this one first: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07X8RXG69/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . Was hoping it would work for me as I like how it matches the fabric case, but it doesn't fast charge. Returned it and bought this Spigen one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07MN5FH7Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . Fast charges at 9W. It's not fabric, but it's a nice enough stand, and the fact that it folds flat is handy as well.

Just download Ampere - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere
current (A) x voltage (V) = power (W). Standard BPP Qi Wattage is 5W. So this qi charger should hopefully give you close to 5W.
