Google 45W USB-C Power Charger review: Best charger for Pixel 9 Pro XL

www.androidauthority.com

I like Google's new 45W charger, but I shouldn't need it to properly charge the Pixel 9 Pro XL

It's funny that companies like Google have stopped giving chargers in the name of being 'environment friendly' but in spite of conforming to USB PD standards, third party chargers can't still charge the Pixel Pro to it's maximum capacity, so you are essentially forced to buy one.

The summary is wrong. The article says 3rd party chargers can't charge the Pixel as fast as Google's proprietary charger. (45 Watts for Google vs 37 Watts for everyone else.)
Any charger will charge it to maximum capacity.
- TOP SPEED.
  It says it cannot fill it at top speed. Top speed means how fast it charges, not maximum capacity.
