Yesterday, Google officially released the Google Pixel 6 series which is the company’s latest flagship series. The biggest feature of this smartphone is the use of Google’s self-developed chip, Tensor SoC. The price of Pixel 6 starts at US$ 599 while the Pixel 6 Pro starts at US$ 899.
These smartphones seem to be performing
well as the Google Store website has been experiencing downtime due to huge
traffic. While the pre-sale is ongoing, the official sales will take place on
October 28th. However, it is important to note that the Google Pixel 6 series
does not come with a charger in the box just like many other flagships. There
is only one USB C-to-C data cable in the box. The charger for these smartphones
needs to be purchased separately. Google has officially launched a 30W C-mount
charging head US$ 25.
The good news is that Google does not use
a dedicated charging protocol. Users can purchase PD charging heads at will and
they will work just fine. The Google Pixel 6 comes with a built-in 4614 mAh
battery that supports 30W PD wired fast charging and 21W wireless fast
charging. The Pixel 6 Pro has a built-in 5003 mAh battery that supports 23W
wireless fast charging. Here is the official specs sheet for both smartphones.
