Wireless charging isn't working for some Pixel devices after November update
This is how it goes sometimes.
The recent November Pixel Update introduced new features and improvements, but some Pixel device users are experiencing issues with wireless charging. Users on the Pixel 10 Pro specifically report that their devices no longer charge wirelessly when using a charger. While the charger continues to display charging progress, the device battery slowly drains, rendering the wireless charging function useless.
The issue was initially brought to light on the Pixel Phone Help page by a user with a Pixel 10 Pro, who reported that the charger had been functioning correctly before the update. After attempting troubleshooting methods such as hard reboots and resetting settings, the user found no resolution to the problem. Other users in the same support ticket have also reported similar issues.
However, the exact cause of the problem remains unclear, as the details surrounding the affected devices and chargers are unknown. Google has been contacted for further information on the matter, and the company's response will be shared if received. This update's impact on Pixel devices is not unprecedented, as similar problems have emerged in the past.
While Google typically addresses such issues, they can occasionally go unnoticed during the testing process. Despite this, the company's track record of delivering updates that enhance user experience is generally positive. Users without the November Pixel Drop update are encouraged to install it, as it brings a range of new features, such as Gemini Intelligence for Pixel 10 devices, visual upgrades including Custom Icons and Widgets, and improved support for Google Messages on the Pixel 11 Pro.
