What is the best charger?

My 5a is taking several hours to charge. Recommendations?

Anker or stock chargers

What happened to the stock charger that came in the Pixel 5a box?

Search for "Google Pixel OEM fast charger" on eBay.

The stock charger works great for me and I believe it's the same 18W that came with my 2XL and 3a xl. Not sure why it's taking so long but the problem is either one or the other.

Has a rather short chord.

I have never had a cord that affected my charging time. I have purchased many 6 foot cords over the years with zero issues.

Maybe it might be the charging cable. I use a power delivery cable. A regular cable that came with a fast travel charger may charge it slower. Use the pixel or purchase an Anker 18w charger and pair it with the Anker power line cable and hopefully that will help.

The stock charger is fine for me.

The best charger is always the one that's available when your phone is (almost) dead ;-D
