Key features
- USB-C to USB-C: It has a USB-C connector on both ends, so it requires a power adapter with a USB-C port.
- Fast charging: When used with a compatible adapter, it enables rapid charging for Pixel phones that support 30W charging, such as the Pixel 6, 7, and 8 series.
- Power Delivery (PD): The cable and charger communicate using the USB Power Delivery standard to optimize the charging speed for your device.
- Data transfer: Besides charging, it can also be used for high-speed data transfer between USB-C devices.
- Universal compatibility: While designed for Pixel devices, the cable can be used with any other USB-C device that supports Power Delivery, including other phones, tablets, and even some laptops.
Important considerations
- Cable vs. charger: The 30W cable and the 30W power adapter are sold separately. While many resellers bundle them, the cable itself does not determine the charging speed—the power adapter and the receiving device do.
- Slower charging: If you use this cable with an older, lower-wattage USB-A adapter, it will charge your phone much more slowly. For the fastest speeds, you must pair it with a 30W (or higher) USB-C PD or PPS power adapter.
- Older Pixels: While the cable works with older Pixel models that use USB-C, the phones themselves may not be able to take advantage of the full 30W charging speed.
