What kind of speeds are you seeing?

I'm monitoring mine right now and I got 50% in around 30 minutes.

How about you?
 
I haven't fully timed it. I just know when it did get low the other day after setup I plugged it in for a little while and was shocked how much I got. It definitely is no slouch on re-charging fast.
 
Tested on lunch today. Around 3:35 PM I plugged in with 38%. At 4:12 PM I am now at 88%. I am happy with that.
 
My pixel 2xl has been charging slowly lately. Google is sending out a new charger and I'm hoping that fixes the problem. Otherwise I'm going to need a new pixel 2xl....

It goes quick at lower % and slows down as it gets to higher %.
 
Mine charges really quickly (2 XL). I haven't timed it but it seems to charge faster than my OG XL.

I know that. I intentionally depleted my phones battery to 15% today, and it would not pull down more than 1000mah. It's time to full was 2hrs and change. I'm hoping it's just the brick, and not something else wrong with the phone.

Were you testing w/ the phone screen on or off?

I would leave the phone off for a bit and check the level. It was going up, about a couple of percentage points, it would have been full approximately 2hrs+ after plugging in. If this was truly fast charging it would pull down more than 1000mah. I checked the charge rate using Ampere.

Ah kk.

You may not have a problem. I saw this on XDA the other day. Can anyone confirm it only charges at 1000mAh with screen on?

Maybe. Google is sending me a new charger so I'll find out. It would charge so quickly before. The first 5 days or so it was really fast. Now it's a lot slower than it used to be.

Well at least you'll have 2 charging bricks & cables.

:D
 
In my experience the new Pixels do not charge like qualcomm's quick charge 3.0 or anything.
However, they're close enough that I'm plenty happy.
 
Here is a little test. Note the charge and time.

I plugged in and left it locked / unused during the time. This is using the 18 W Brick I got from the Google store (an extra one.. the one that came with the Pixel 2 XL I leave at home).

See in the same time, mine would only go up to 52-54%. It use to charge that quick, just not anymore.
