Everything You Need to Know About Pixel 4a Wireless Charging
Wireless charging has been part of mainstream technology for over ten years now, after Samsung brought out its first commercial wireless charger in 2011. Most new major smartphones have wireless charging capabilities, and it’s something we’ve begun to expect from our phones as a standard feature. You can discover the most popular cell phone brand, past and present, via our comprehensive guide.
This is why so many people were shocked when Google introduced the Pixel 4a in 2020 without wireless charging capabilities. The model was presented as an affordable option for those that want a capable smartphone without the price tag that comes with a top-of-the-range Apple or Samsung. But not having the convenience of wireless charging has frustrated many Pixel 4a users – is there a solution?
How to Add Wireless Charging to the Pixel 4a
Luckily for Pixel 4a users, there is a way to add wireless charging to their phones. There are many types of wireless charging adaptors available for all types of smartphone, including the Pixel 4a. They can range in price but spending a little more on an adaptor may guarantee a faster wireless charge.
Wireless charging adaptors attach to the back of your phone and have a small cable that plugs into the charging port. You can then place your smartphone onto any wireless charging pad and the coil in the adaptor will take in the charge and transfer it to your phone. They can usually be used with or without a case.
Do Wireless Charging Adaptors Really Work?
Yes, wireless charging adaptors can really deliver a charge to your smartphone via a wireless charging pad. If you decide you also want to use a cable to charge, perhaps when you want a faster boost, you will have to remove the adaptor from the charging port on your phone.
The speed of wireless charging adaptors will vary from model to model. The majority of wireless charging adaptors will deliver 5W charging, but some more expensive models can give between 7.5W and 10W.
A 5W wireless charging adaptor can charge a Pixel 4a from 20% to 100% in around three and a half hours. In comparison, using the cable charger that is included with the phone will take around two hours to reach 100% battery.
Whilst charging via cable will be quicker, this can be a great option if you’ll be leaving your phone on your wireless charging pad all day whilst you work or on a nightstand whilst you sleep. It’s also a really convenient way of keeping your phone topped up with quick boosts of power throughout the day.
