Google introduced 4 new Pixel 9 smartphones about two weeks in the past – Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Professional, Pixel 9 Professional XL, and Pixel 9 Professional Fold. The non-folding Pixels could be charged wirelessly with Google’s Pixel Stand 1 and Pixel Stand 2, however the Pixel 9 Professional Fold can not.
Google says it’s as a result of the “place of the charging coil for Pixel 9 Professional Fold isn’t completely centered in comparison with earlier Pixel telephones,” and that “may make it troublesome so that you can cost your telephone wirelessly.”
Nevertheless, Google stated the Pixel 9 Professional Fold “helps many different wi-fi chargers” and “once you use one other wi-fi charger, regulate the place of your telephone to get it to cost.” The model additionally stated, “To verify if it is aligned accurately, test the charging indicator in your telephone.”
Google shared the Pixl 9 Professional Fold’s diagram (see under) to indicate the place of the charging coil.
With the unique Pixel Stand, the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Professional, and Pixel 9 Professional could be charged wirelessly as much as 10W. Nevertheless, with the Pixel Stand 2, the vanilla Pixel 9 goes as much as 15W wirelessly, whereas the Professional and Professional XL go as much as 21W and 23W, respectively.
With no help for Pixel Stand 1 and Stand 2, the Google Pixel 9 Professional Fold can solely be charged at as much as 7.5W with different wi-fi chargers. The shortage of help for the Pixel Stand is a bummer for the reason that Google Pixel 9 Professional Fold is the most costly smartphone within the lineup.
