  • Google has confirmed the Pixel 9 Pro Fold can’t be charged with the Pixel Stand or Pixel Stand 2.
  • The company explained that the foldable’s charging coils had a different position compared to previous Pixel phones.

The Google Pixel Stand is a novel way to wirelessly charge your Pixel phone. These charging stands offer faster speeds than Qi-based chargers and a few other notable features. Unfortunately, it turns out the Pixel 9 Pro Fold can’t actually be charged via the Pixel Stand.
