pixel: Google Pixel 6 Pro could come with 33W fast charging: Report – Times of India

The Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro smartphones are coming this year. Google already unveiled its new flagship smartphones sometime back but did not reveal any of the specifications other than that the phones will come powered by its own Tensor chip. But now, we may have some idea about the charging speed of the Pixel 6 Pro smartphone, courtesy of the data obtained from the National Communications Commission (NCC), the regulatory body of Taiwan, as per a report by XDA Developers.
As per the report, the Pixel 6 Pro will support the charging speeds of 5V/3A (15W), 9V/2A (18W), 9V/3A (27W) and 11V/3A (33W). That means the 33W fast charging is most likely to be featured with the Pixel 6 Pro. It would certainly be a boost as the previous Pixel models support fast charging of only up to 18W. But there could be a big caveat as Google may not ship the 33W charger within the box. It ideally should but there is a chance it won’t and the Pixel 6 Pro buyers would have to purchase it separately.
Comparing strictly on the basis of charging speeds, the Pixel 6 Pro stands a better chance compared to the Apple iPhone 13, should it ship with 33W fast charging support as the iPhone 13 can support up to 25W fast charging. Other Android phones, however, are a lot better in this segment, with 65W charging having come to some of the flagships and 120W fast charging already announced.
The Tensor chip is one of the highlights of the Pixel 6 series. Google has said that with Tensor, “we thought about every piece of the chip and customized it to run Google’s computational photography models. For users, this means entirely new features, plus improvements to existing ones.”
