I am hooked on Google\u2019s stock Android implementation, exclusive features, and the fantastic camera in my Pixel.<\/p>\n<p>However, the daily experience is not always flawless. This is particularly true when dealing with battery life and charging performance.<\/p>\n<p>It is frustrating that Google has struggled to nail battery life on its Pixel phones for years. Even with my Pixel phone, I regularly need a morning top-up and an evening recharge.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, overall battery life is no longer my primary concern. I found a few dependable workarounds to stretch my screen time throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, resolving the erratic charging speeds proved to be a tougher challenge. If you are like me, slow, inconsistent Pixel top-ups have been bugging you for quite some time now.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, this felt impossible to fix because Google actively throttles system performance to reduce battery degradation (and explosions).<\/p>\n<p>But after months of testing and kicking the tires out of my Pixel, I found a reliable way to boost charging speeds.<\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\">Related<\/span><\/p>\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\tI finally understood why Google limits Pixel charging to 80%, and it changed how I use mine<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Every Pixel owner should enable this crucial charging setting<\/p>\n<p>        &#8230;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/my-pixel-charges-slowly-but-these-settings-fixed-it-for-me\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Pixel was charging at a crawl, but these settings finally fixed it for me&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":272096,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static0.anpoimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/wm\/2024\/09\/google-pixel-9-pro-xl-charging.jpg?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,72],"class_list":["post-272095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-pixel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272095"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=272095"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272095\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":272097,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272095\/revisions\/272097"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/272096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=272095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=272095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=272095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
