I finally found a reliable wireless charger for all of my Google devices – including the Pixel Watch

To this point, I was charging my Pixel 9 Pro on an aging Pixel stand, my Pixel Watch with a USB cable. It all worked ,but it wasn’t exactly what I’d call tidy or efficient. I had cables on my desk that used up precious USB ports and took up unnecessary space.

I’d been looking for a single charger that could replace those various options but had no luck. The stands were either geared for the original Pixel Watch, didn’t offer a separate wireless option for my earbuds, or required multiple cables (which defeated one of my needs).

After a long time search, I finally found the Phelinta 3-in-one charger, Fitbit Versa 4, Sense 2, Fitbit Versa 2, and other devices that aren’t listed above.

With a single USB-C cable, you can charge three devices at once. The only caveat is that it’s not capable of fast charging. This is a 9-volt charger, so don’t expect it to zap your phone to a full charge with lightning speed (more on this in a bit). 

But this is a convenient option for those looking to have a single charging station for supported devices. Even better, it won’t cost a fortune.

One charger to charge them all.

All of my Pixel devices can be charged with one stand and that’s a good thing.

Take note: I would caution you to not disable Adaptive Charging because it extends the life of your battery (so you don’t find it less capable of holding a charge as the years go by). If you do go with this stand, make sure you find the right time to place your phone on it to get the right amount of charge.

I’ve found that going from roughly 60% charge to 100% never fails to occur while I’m asleep, so I always awake to a fully charged device. Of course, because I use my watch to track sleeping habits, that device gets charged once I’ve had my breakfast.

Other than that one caveat, we’ve not had any problems with this simple-to-use, tidy little charging stand. 

ZDNET’s buying advice

If you’re tired of cable clutter or having to charge your phone, watch, and earbuds in different locations, I highly recommend the Phelinta 3-in-1 charging stand
