Google says ‘a known bug’ is preventing some Pixel 9 Pro XL devices from supporting wireless charging. Here’s what you can do while you wait for a patch.
Google’s Pixel 9 series is going through a post launch rough patch at the moment. Current owners are complaining online about a wireless charging problem affecting the Pixel 9 Pro XL.
You’ll find multiple posts over on the Google Pixel subreddit with people sharing their varying experiences. One poster claimed that they tried charging their Pixel 9 Pro XL in their car. The device draws power «for a few seconds» before suddenly stopping. Another user states they placed the phone on a Qi-supported charger and again — nothing.
What’s disconcerting is this issue occurs on both first-party and third-party wireless chargers. A poster on the official Pixel Phone Help forums says their model couldn’t draw any power from a second-gen Pixel Stand.
