I have the Pixel 4 XL and put it on my nightstand next to my bed. With this stand, my phone on it now serves as my clock to check the time as well as to set an alarm to wake me up while charging. It can also show photos from an album I pick in my Photos or some Google curated collections. Best purchase i made for myself this year.

Tremendous Waste of Time, Money, and Materials

This item developed the infamous “Orange Light of Death” after just a few months of use. Unfortunately, Google does not honor the 12-month warranty on the package. It’s something of a cruel joke since they send you to a URL that redirects to the Pixel phone support page. It feels as if the “warranty” page infinite-loop is intended to make you give up and forget about obtaining support.
I simply don’t have the time nor energy to keep begging for their help. Makes me question if I should even continue purchasing Google Pixel phones. They had something special with the Nexus line of phones but the Pixel line is sadly tarnished with inconsistencies. Definitely avoid this charger unless they give it to you free with another purchase. Check out other wireless charger brands if you need one. Google hardware support is kind of a mixed bag right now.

Purchased this as a birthday gift to myself. Purchased the Pixel 4 last Fall and wanted a good wireless charger for my device. The Pixel stand charges my Pixel 4 very fast and doesn't heat up. It works better with the fabric Pixel case or with non at all. The photo slideshow is a clever way to pass the time while it charges. I don't have a Nest doorbell, so I couldn't try that function out. The bedtime feature also works well, and the screen slowly lighting up as the alarm time nears is helpful.
My only complaints are the price of the stand and having to move the Pixel 4 around a little bit to find the sweet spot where it charges the best. I was able to get the Pixel Stand on sale and also a coupon discount through the Honey extension. At the new price, it was worth it!

This charger is pricey, but I believe worth it. I have only used it with my Google Pixel 3, so I can't speak to how it works with other phones. But it charges very rapidly, and it has worked will all my phone cases. The Google Pixel slideshow feature is also a nice bonus. It takes a few minutes to start working and then will stop here and there. But, overall, it's a really nice feature with the Pixel. And it has worked everytime I've set it on the charger. I'll often catch my husband or kids leaning on the kitchen counter looking at the pictures. Very happy with this device.

Good wireless charger

We'll get price out of the way first, this charger is a bit more expensive than third-party options. There are a few features that will only work if you are using your Pixel phone coupled with this charger. They aren't game-changing but they are helpful. The product description hasn't updated yet to mention the Pixel 4, this device works equally well with either the flagship Pixel 3 or 4. It charges your device relatively quickly, faster than other wireless chargers I have. Overall, it works well, provides some unique benefits, and looks nice. I'd recommend it for Pixel 3/4 owners.

Very sleek looking and easy to use. No problems so far with charging rapidly through my Google case. Got this at half price during holiday sale, so worth it at that price. A bit pricey for a charger if paying full price.

I got this item for free with the purchase of a Google Pixel 3 phone. It performs as a wireless charger flawlessly but I am taking away one star because of the high cost as compared to the cost of the phone itself.
Included in the box is the charger and a USB C cable.
I am not using the extra features but am simply using it as a wireless charger.
This stand functions as a fast charger but only for the Google Pixel 3.
Make sure if you are using a case on your phone, that it is rated as compatible with wireless charging. Cases that are too thick can will block the wireless charge.

Google Pixel Stand

The Google Pixel Stand is an excellent wireless stand not just for Pixel devices, but wireless charge-capable devices.
Needless to say there are bonuses for pairing it with a Google branded phone. In the box you have the stand, a charging brick, and a type-c to type-c cord. Once out of the box in you'll notice it has a soft matte finish, and rounded edges to the whole structure, perfectly in line with the Pixel 3/XL that came out at the time of initial release.
After plugging in when you set a Pixel phone on, it begins to pair that stand with a unique ID, so that when you decide what background activity the phone will do, it will know to do that routine with that stand. With other phones it's just plug and charge, no other extras.
This stand will charge wireless items such as pixel buds 2, but you have to place them upside down for that to work.
This charger does no rapid charge any devices, it's a good set and let it do it's thing in the background type charger.
All in all this is a decent addition to the Google ecosystem, with small caveats such as no rapid charging, only one coloure option, and the MSRP is extremely high.
Should you get it if you want a wireless charger, and don't have a Pixel phone? No. There's other faster charging options that don't require a specific phone to activate special skills.
Should you get one if you have a Pixel phone with wireless charging capabilities? If it's on sale.
Should you get one if you're all in on the Google ecosystem? Yes. On sale you should get 2.

Great with Pixel 5; try to find at a discount

Works great with the Pixel 5. I've never had any issues with it, it just works. You unlock several subtle features when you use this charger with a Pixel instead of any other wireless charger, and while they're not life-changing by any means, I'd say they're worth it if you can get this at a discount (I got mine for $40 right before Christmas). I like the sunrise alarm feature, the screen saver options are nice, and my phone will show music controls if I'm playing music while on the charger.
It charges my Pixel just as fast as the default charging cable as far as I can tell, and even works with the Pixel Buds, you just have to place the case upside-down on this stand for the coils to line up and charge.
Build quality seems top notch, granted it doesn't do anything but sit on my night stand but it looks just as new as it did 6 months ago. The orange bottom side looks and feels really nice, I wish it was more visible since it's a great accent color. The whole stand is made of that slightly grippy, very satisfying rubbery stuff which reminds you that this is a higher-end product. Like I said earlier, it's hard to justify $70 for this (other chargers work just as well for half the price), but if you can get this at a discount or you're like me and have to have first-party Google products to feel like a complete set, you can't go wrong with this.
By the way if you don't have a Pixel phone, this is not for you. As far as I know it works with other phones, but you don't get the extra features and that makes it way too expensive to justify; you can get an equally fast charger at half the price.

Best with the Discount for the Pixel 3/3XL Ownerly

I own the Pixel 3XL, and purchased this product at a discount during Black Friday 2018. The Pixel Stand unlocks additional features on the Pixel 3/3XL and allows it to charge wirelessly at quick charge speeds. As a phone stand and wireless charger, it is very well designed with a nice white rubber coating. Unfortunately, it only comes in white, and that may be too limiting for some buyers
If you do not own a Pixel 3/3XL, this stand cannot be recommended at all. As of this review, other Andoid phones cannot utilize the Pixel Stand Android features, and other wireless charging phones will not charge at quick charge speeds. At the $80 MSRP price point, to me it is not worth it. They do offer the Pixel quick USB C quick charge brick and USB C to USB C cable which many other wireless charges do not offer, but definitely does not warrant such a high price point considering a family member, friend, or co-worker cannot take advantage of wireless quick charging unless they own a Pixel 3/3XL.

GREAT! IF you can find it for $40.00!

Like my title mentions, this is a great wireless charger if you can find it on sale for $40.00, so I purchased this on sale from Best Buy for ~$39.99 and for that price this is a GREAT product, no gimmicks, clean and very aesthetically pleasing wireless charger for my Pixel phone. But I would NOT have purchased if it was the original price of $79.99, I think that's too much for what it does, and to be honest even at $39.99 I was very skeptical because lets get real it's just charging your phone wirelessly, but an OEM Google charger already retails for about $29.99 (i.e. I know you can find them cheaper, but I am just saying that's retail value), so I figure another $10.00 you can charge your phone wireless with a Google O.E.M charger! Thanks Best Buy for the sale!

Rapid Charging. Worth it!

This charger is well worth spending the extra few bucks compared to other wireless chargers. I tried buying a Mophie wireless charging pad because it said it charged up to 10W which is what the Pixel Stand charges at. It did not provide the rapid charging feature so I returned it and bought the Pixel Stand. Well worth it due to the rapid charging feature and also the digital photo frame feature is nice too! Also works with my iPhone.

This is the only certified wireless charger that supports 10 watt charging on the Pixel 3 at the moment. It performs perfectly and chargers significantly faster than standard 5 watt chargers. It's well designed. Only negatives is it won't work if you try to leave your phone in landscape orientation and the retail price makes this a difficult purchase. If you have the money, it's worth it.

This is my 2nd Pixel stand. I have one on my night stand and this one on my desk in my office. I love the fact that I can set each one up differently. Great for wireless charging and displaying your photos! The one on my nightstand I have set up to be silenced as I use that one for overnight charging. Got this one on sale too.

Charges your Pixel devices quickly, and matches Google's minimalist aesthetic. I've used this on the Pixel 3, 4, and now the Pixel 5 without any issues. It's a tough pill to swallow at full MSRP, but find these on sale and they're great. Will charge other Qi Wireless devices at the slower 5W rate.
