Google Pixel 6/6 Pro

Would wireless charging damage a credit card that was stored in the case??

Pixel 6 looks like a nice phone but it’s a shame that they don’t do a smaller handset like with the pixel 5.

Spigen Liquid Air and Spigen Align Master Screen protectors ready to go.

Where did you get the screen protector from? Couldn't find it on amazon.

Cool, I'll go for this combo:

Quick Charge 3.0, Anker 18W 3Amp USB Wall Charger (Quick Charge 2.0 Compatible) Powerport+ 1 for Galaxy S10/S9/S8/Edge/Plus, Note 8/7, LG G4, HTC One A9/M9, Nexus 9, iPhone, iPad and More https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B017VXA...abc_FVJJA0PSCR9H1R4SCKC7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Is 18W not going to be a bit underpowered? I bought the 30W one that Google had listed on their accessories page.

If anybody wants a 30w charger then these are good.

I ordered 2 from Google for £25 each. Regretting that now seeing your link

Will do a bit later on pal.

The case is pretty typical Spigen Liquid Air which I like. The screen protector is a full coverage one with no cut out for the camera hole. Also you get a plastic frame to make alignment easy

Where did you order from?

This won't charge a Pixel @ 30W.

At most it'll do 10w as its not compatible with USB PD PPS.

I thought it would be ok as the wireless dock is 10w. I've cancelled now and will recommence the hunt.

18W charger is the max that a 10W wireless charging pad needs.

Ahhh my bad, i thought you were using that as a regular plug-in charger as you'd mentioned the wireless charging pad in your second link.

Can you grab a link? I could find the case easy enough, but couldn't see the screen protector.

But it looks like it is currently out of stock.

It's cool, I got it ordered again in time.

I don't need a fast charger for the wireless pad as the phone will be sitting on it overnight. I'll pick up a regular 30w charger if I find I'm having to top up during the day, but hoping not (obviously!).

That's what I thought too.

Robi · 24 Oct 2021 at 22:33

I'm still using a OnePlus 6T. Surely it's safe to assume that changing to a Pixel 6 128GB will be a huge upgrade in all areas, even before seeing the reviews tomorrow?

Reppyboyo · 24 Oct 2021 at 22:34

Was hoping the Pro's would remain in stock till after the reviews but hey ho, I can live without free headphones.

Shame they don't do fabric cases like for p5...

Yeah. Love the fabric case on my P5. Really frustrated there's no equivalent for the 6. I hate finding the right case, I usually go through 3 or 4 before I find one I like.

There's the "kwmobile" one on Amazon. They're average quality but similar idea and cost like £8
