Google Wall Charger for Pixel, XL, Pixel 2, XL - White

I was one of those people who thought a charger was a charger and bought the cheapest I could find on Amazon, big mistake! My Mom said her charger quit working (a cheap knockoff from years ago) and when I looked at it to see what the problem was, the end of the charging cord had melted into the end of the charging adapter that plugs into the wall outlet! Lesson learned, I will only buy official name brand chargers from here on. It's not worth burning down your house or killing a loved one to save a dollar! If you can wait until they are on sale, which happens frequently, you'll get a great value for a great product.

The box itself doesn't actually indicate whatsoever that the cable is present - at first glance, it seems to just be the charger, with the image of the cable along the small side of the box being the only indication it might be included. The box read that the photos on the box may not represent what's in the box, soooo, after asking an associate, we still weren't sure, so I went ahead and purchased it in hopes that it was the charger/cable combo and not just the charger. Thankfully, it was, and it's working exactly as expected, rapidly charging my Pixel.

This is a high quality, well-made name brand Adapter that charges my Samsung devices (S9 phone and Tab S4 tablet) as well as or better than the original OEM adapters. It provides more wattage than OEM that the devices are capable of using to charge faster because Galaxy devices support USB-C PD Protocol as well as Samsung AFC and Qualcomm QC 2.0. An issue with my OEM charger was that the device would indicate "slow charging" and to "use the original charger". I had only replaced the original A to C cable that broke down where it attaches to the C plug and bends and flexes the most with a supposedly quality after market cable. There are no issues of any kind with the Google charger. USB-C to USB-C with PD is the way to go for the future.
