Expand Expanding CloseAhead of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold launch next week, buyers should be aware that the Pixel Stand 2 cannot be used to charge the 2024 Google foldable.
Expand Expanding CloseThe Pixel Stand is far from perfect, it is a bit finicky and only truly works well with your devices in one orientation. However, thanks to a mod, one Pixel Stand owner has made charging in landscape orientation work with just about any phone.
Expand Expanding CloseWith Android 15 Beta 2, you might have noticed that the time has disappeared from the Google Photos slideshow when your phone is charging on the Pixel Stand.
Expand Expanding CloseAlongside the Pixel 6 series, Google unveiled an updated wireless charger designed for use with the latest smartphone series. A delayed launch meant that the Pixel Stand 2nd Gen was not available until a month after the release of the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro.
Expand Expanding CloseWith Google’s 2nd-gen wireless charger now arriving for the first pre-orderers, some are noticing that they’re not getting particularly fast speeds. This is due to the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro requiring the December update for fast charging on the Pixel Stand.
Expand Expanding CloseWhile announced alongside the Pixel 6, pre-orders for the 2nd-gen Pixel Stand did not open until mid-November. The new Pixel Stand is now shipping and seeing wider purchase options this week.
Expand Expanding CloseWith the launch of the Pixel 6, Google only had phone cases and the 30W charger available as day one accessories. You can now pre-order the Pixel Stand (2nd gen) with delivery scheduled for mid-December.
Expand Expanding CloseThe Pixel Fall Launch isn’t just reserved for the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. In fact, we’re going to see an added selection of products, services, and even a little software added to the Made by Google lineup. Here’s what to expect:

Expand Expanding CloseDid you know that Google’s upcoming Pixel Fall Launch event will include more than just smartphone announcements? Yes, we’re going to see some other stuff too!
Expand Expanding CloseAs we first reported in June, Google is working on a 2nd-generation Pixel Stand for the Pixel 6. The first-party wireless charging stand has now leaked, along with a new case and charger for the upcoming flagship.
Expand Expanding CloseThe Pixel 6 series is a reboot for the lineup in more ways than one, and the spec sheet we’ve learned so far certainly reflects that. Today, new details are coming out regarding the Pixel 6’s wireless charging capabilities, and specifically how much faster it will be.
Expand Expanding CloseFrom the leaks we’ve seen so far, the Pixel 6 series will look unlike any Pixel phone before it. To match the premium Pixel 6, Google appears to be readying a second-generation Pixel Stand, equipped with fans, which hints at faster charging speeds.
Expand Expanding CloseSince the launch of the Pixel 3, the Pixel Stand has been Google’s signature wireless charger with exclusive features not offered for other wireless chargers. Now it seems the Pixel Stand app has added a new bedtime reminder with a shortcut to sleep sounds.
Expand Expanding CloseWith the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL in 2018, Google released a first-party wireless charger. Since then, it has remained compatible with Google’s flagship phones and added new software features. For Black Friday, the Google Store has aggressively discounted the Pixel Stand by 50% off.
Expand Expanding CloseThe Google Pixel 5 is set to reach its first customers’ hands — outside of the US, anyway — later this week. Ahead of that launch, the Pixel Stand app has received an update, adding “Home controls” styled after Android 11’s power menu.
Expand Expanding CloseGoogle’s flagship Pixel 3 and Pixel 4 phones both have extra features exclusively used when docked on the official Google Pixel Stand wireless charger. Google is preparing to launch another such feature for the Pixel Stand in version 1.4.0 of the companion app, bringing convenient smart home controls via the Google Home app.

Wireless charging is finally back on Google’s latest crop of smartphones, and it’s certainly a welcome return. Google even supports Pixel 3 fast wireless charging at 10W. However, that apparently doesn’t work with third-party chargers as has recently been discovered.
Alongside the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, the Pixel Stand is also launching later this week. Like the Made by Google phones, the wireless charging accessory was leaked ahead of time thanks to teardowns of the Google app. Codenamed “dreamliner,” Google has now uploaded a companion service to the Play Store.
With the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL including wireless charging for the first time, the addition of the Google Pixel Stand as a first party charging accessory means that Google have done what Apple could not by providing an official solution that actually adds a layer of extra functionality.
Google’s latest set of Pixel smartphones arrived today with the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. One of the big new features arriving with these phones is wireless charging, and alongside the launch, Google has also just announced an official wireless charger for both devices.
That accessory is called the Google Pixel Stand, and it packs some extra features too.
Just this afternoon, a British ad detailed a “Top Shot” camera feature for the Pixel 3 and a Google Home Hub launch date. A Canadian carrier has now listed both Made by Google phones, revealing that a Google Pixel 3 Not Pink color is only available in 64GB, while the Pixel Stand will come as a pre-order gift.
