Best Google Pixel 7 wireless chargers in 2024

In part thanks to their age, the Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro now offer fantastic value for money, with especially great deals at some third-party retailers. If you pick one up, you’ll want to enjoy all the best features — including wireless charging. Even more than is typical with power supplies, it’s important to get a reliable Qi charger to keep from damaging your device.

Luckily, the tech’s been around long enough that there are quite a few such dependable options to choose from. Any chargers that deliver up to 15W will max out the Pixel 7’s wireless charging speed, which Google limited either for safety and consistency reasons, or to sell more of its first-party, 20W chargers. Here you’ll find the most cost-effective and safest options on the market.

• 

  Anker PowerWave II Stand

  Best overall

  The Anker PowerWave II Stand is a complete wireless charging package. It’s one of the few chargers that can deliver 12W wireless charging to the Pixel 7 phones, the top speed you can get outside the Pixel Stand (2nd Gen). Its stand-type form factor is easy to use and allows you to keep charging your phone while having a video call or watching a video. It also has two coils that enable charging in both portrait and landscape orientations.

  Google Pixel Stand (2nd gen)

  Premium pick

  There is no faster way to charge the Pixel 7 phones wirelessly than with the company’s Pixel Stand (2nd Gen) charger. The inclusion of Google’s proprietary technology ensures that it can deliver up to 20W power to the Pixel 7 and up to 23W to the Pixel 7 Pro, the same rate you’ll get if you charge these phones wired.The built-in fan keeps your phone cool, making sure that it’s charging at top speeds.

• 

  InfinityLab InstantStation

  Best value

  In addition to the 15 watts delivered by the InfinityLab InstantStation’s wireless charging coil, USB-A and C ports let you charge two more devices at the same time (not quickly, but safely). It works whether your phone’s resting in portrait or landscape mode, so you won’t be interrupted if you’re watching something or making a video call. Plus, it’s priced considerably lower than you’d think, given its premium construction.

• 

  iOttie Easy One Touch Wireless 2

  The iOttie Easy One Touch Wireless 2 is a fantastic in-car wireless charger for the Pixel 7 that doubles as a car mount. While it won’t give the charging speed of a Pixel Stand 2, it can deliver a decent 10W charging, which is enough to push some extra charge into your phone even if you are using it for navigation. Plus, you get a lot of adjustment options in terms of angle and height to help you get the best viewing angle.

• 

  ESR HaloLock Kickstand Wireless Charger

  $18 $30 Save $12

  ESR makes a wide range of dependable chargers, cases, and other accessories, and they usually offer quality construction and a stylish appearance. Both are true of the HaloLock Kickstand charger, with your choice of a black, blue, or silver machined-aluminum body. Use the kickstand to top off your phone with the screen fully in view, or collapse it lay your device down and focus on something else. To top it off, it doesn’t cost much.

• 

  Belkin BoostCharge Wireless Charging Pad 15W

  If you want a dependable wireless charger for your phone, it’s hard to go wrong with Belkin’s BoostCharge Wireless Charging Pad 15. It’s a no-frills charger that can top up the Pixel 7 phones at 12W, the fastest possible speed for any wireless charger other than the Pixel Stand (2nd Gen). As the name suggests, the charger has a pad-type form factor and rubber grips on top for secure placement of your phone.

• 

  Native Union Classic Leather Wireless Charger

  The Native Union Classic Leather Wireless Charger stands out from the crowd and is made for people who care about aesthetics. Its genuine Italian leather top screams premium, and the charger will look great on your desk or nightstand. What’s more, the beauty of the leather top will only improve over time as it develops a natural patina. Besides the premium aesthetics, the charger is sufficiently powered to fast charge your Pixel.

• 

  Spigen ArcField Fast Wireless Charger

  Featuring a no-frills design, the Spigen ArcField Wireless Charger is great for charging your Pixel 7 and any other Qi-compatible devices.

In other highlights, the Spigen offering can work with up to 5mm thick cases and has a non-slip top to ensure your phone stays in place.

• 

  Tozo W1

  $14 $20 Save $6

  With the ultra-slim Tozo W1, you can have wireless trickle charging at your workstation at all times without adding much clutter to your desk. It’s not only as slim as they get, but also available in several great-looking, glossy metallic colors. It won’t max out the Pixel 7’s Qi charging rate because it doesn’t support the Extended Power Profile standard, but it’s still great for topping off, and the roughly 8W maximum will keep temperatures down.

• 

  iOttie iON Wireless Duo

  iOttie also offers the iON Wireless Duo, which is an excellent option if you want to charge your Pixel Buds Pro, Sony WF-1000XM4, or any other Qi charging-capable wireless earbuds alongside the Pixel 7. It has two slots for charging: the primary slot (15W) with a stand-type form factor and two charging coils for charging in landscape and portrait, and the secondary slot (5W) in the form of a pad. The iON Wireless Duo looks pretty, and the fabric-wrapped stand is elegant.

• 

  Courant Catch:3 Essentials

  $140 $175 Save $35

  The Courant Catch:3 Essentials is not your typical wireless charger. It combines the functionality of a valet tray with a wireless charger, making it perfect for a bedside table or a placement near your home’s entry. You can just drop your phone with other accessories or keys in one place. Moreover, its elegant design will go well with most home decor, and you can choose from linen or leather versions as per your taste.

• 

  Anker PowerCore III 10K Wireless

  If you are often away from a power outlet but still want to enjoy wireless charging, then the Anker PowerCore III 10K Wireless is made for you. It does the double duty of a power bank and a wireless charger. And you get a battery capacity of 10,000mAh, sufficient to deliver at least one full charge to the Pixel 7. Moreover, you can also use it to charge your phone via a USB-C cord for faster speeds.

Fast wireless charging on your Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro

Our top pick, Anker PowerWave II, wins out due to a convenient form factor, reliable circuitry, and verified max third-party charging rate for the Pixel 7 family. It also packs two charging coils (one for each orientation), and works through cases up to 5mm thick.

But if you’re willing to spend a little more money on one of the best Pixel 7 accessories, go for Google’s Pixel Stand (2nd Gen); it can charge Pixel 7 phones even faster, with up to 20W wireless charging on the Pixel 7 and up to 23W on the Pro model. The Google charger is also aesthetically pleasing and looks premium.

The InfinityLab InstantStation is perfect if you don’t want to spend much, partly because it also offers USB-A and USB-C charging and, like the Anker, lets you set your phone down in portrait or landscape mode. We also like the affordable ESR HaloLock, which was engineered for iPhones but works swimmingly with Android devices, whether laying flat or using its kickstand.

We also highlighted the Native Union and Courant Catch:3 models, which both add an unmistakably premium feel to any workspace — they’re as classy as they are effective (and costly). Whichever you choose, keep a few things in mind:

• Mind your placement: The Pixel 7 needs to be properly aligned with the coils on your wireless charging pad or stand. If you don’t see the promised charging speeds, check that the Pixel 7 is centered on the coil.
• Proper power adapters: Many wireless chargers are now compatible with USB-C Power Delivery and can be powered by the same excellent PPS chargers you’d use with a normal wired cable to charge the Pixel 7. However, some chargers still demand Qualcomm QuickCharge, and you need to be mindful of how much current a pad requires — the Moshi needing 45W to ensure both pads are adequately powered.
• A case of thickness: Most Pixel 7 cases will say they are compatible with wireless charging, but if your case is even just a little too thick — or if you have a PopSocket adhered — it might be slowing your wireless charging experience or preventing it from happening. If the charger works with the case off, you might need to charge with the case off or swap to a thinner, PopSocket-less case at night.
