USB type C cables and chargers

[civiksi]

This will be my first usb type c device. I'm sure a lot of you are upgrading from the original pixel. Can you guys recommend cables and chargers that you have used that you liked? I'm sure there are a bunch of people in my situation it can help to stock up on this stuff before the phone comes. And yes I know there is a list of approved cables, etc.

I'd look at Anker or Aukey for chargers. They should have a couple PD-2 chargers. They also sell the required cables.

The Pixel 2 XL will come with cables and a charger in the box though.

Thanks. I know it comes with some. Just trying to figure out work, bedroom, etc.

Make sure the cables you buy have a 56k ohm resistor.

It does but you always need extra cables or chargers for travel, car or work.

Just search on amazon. Aukey and choetech are what I've been using with my 6p

Purchase via Amazon or store, whichever you prefer. It's the one that charges the phone rapidly with Power Delivery.

Thanks! Do they have a EU compatible one?

I would never get a cheap Chinese/no name version. From what I've read, if it doesn't have a 56ohm resistor, it has damaged phones.

You can also check on Amazon and read reviews from those who have purchased. Not worth saving a few bucks to potentially damage your $900+ phone.

I've never seen a EU version. I could be wrong. You can just the US version and get a plug converter.

But would my old Samsung (S7Edge) quickcharge charger work with it? Fast charging wouldnt work but am i able to just charge it?

If its OEM, I don't think there will be any issues. I'm sure people may have multiple USB-C items and I'm sure these news outlet and reviewers have multiple USB-C cables and plugs that they just use the same one over and over.

DO not get any usb c cable/charger so many of them don't follow the standards
Only get one that has been tested
bad cables and charger in best case can charge slowly
in worst case can damage the phone or explode

follow https://plus.google.com/collection/s0Inv
and only use good cables
from the top of my head, the good ones are from
belkin - anker - CHOETECH - IOGEAR - Veckle

As far as I can tell, Benson Leung finds issues with every Aukey product he reviews. I'm contemplating the BlitzWolf BW-S10, as I've had no issues with the BW-S5 or BW-CB3, and their reputation appears to be clean. The supplied cable is USB-C to USB-C, right?

I've edited the post. Thanks for catching that!
