Fast wired charging rates (up to 27W) are based upon use of the Google 30 W USB-C® Charger plugged into a wall socket. Actual results may be slower. Adaptors sold separately. 3 Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and the use of other features. Average battery life during testing was approximately 31 hours. Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. Battery testing conducted in California in mid-2023 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.
