Android related news site Android Police got information from readers using Pixel 3 that "Google may be restricting the functionality of a third-party wireless charging station". As this Pixel 3 user noticed that Anker's wireless charger compatible with 10 W high speed power supply was used and it only charged at 500 mA, he told Anker's support. Then, from Anker, "According to our quality engineer, Pixel has set function restrictions on third party charging accessories, so even Anker's 10W high speed power feed compatible products can supply power only at 5 W It is said that Anker's quality team is going to purchase Pixel 3 to try this and will update the Anker product page as soon as the test results come up.

When Android Police inquired Google's spokesperson, initially "Pixel 3 can establish a" secure handshake "with Pixel Stand, which enables 10W high speed power supply, but charge of other companies to 5W I got a response saying "I will be limited." Given that there are no such restrictions on high-speed power supply in Samsung and Apple that are already ahead of commercialization of wireless chargers already, Google's attitude towards high-speed wireless charging is often "safety-oriented", and poorly It is "exclusive". To make matters worse, Android Police pointed out that "Charging rapidly" appears on the screen of Pixel 3 even when using a wireless charging station that can not charge 10 W fast charge, It seems that it is difficult to notice that you can not use the full function.

After that, under Android Police there is a new response from Google, according to which Google can satisfy the safety-certified product that Google has determined through the " Made for Google " program can charge at 10 W full speed He said that he made it clear. As there are products like Belkin " BOOST ↑ UP Wireless Charging Pad 10W for Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL " that already got Google's certification, third-party manufacturers such as Anker also have restrictions on the function of high speed feeding of Pixel 3 It seems that a wireless charger released will appear.
