Review on πŸ”Œ Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL Wireless Charger - White by Stephanie Johnson

DEFECTIVE PRODUCT - Charger is causing overheating resulting in slow charging

My USB port on my Pixel 3 seems to be defective and can't connect/charge with the USB charger so I bought a charger to fix it believing that it would solve my problems. Unfortunately, I have the same problem with slow loading. First night of use, I only had a 10% charge all night and found it charging slowly (said quickly when I put it to sleep). It seems from people's comments on the internet that this is indeed due to a heating problem. no software. Wireless charging heats up the phone, but then the software has to slow down the charging process to avoid overheating. Therefore, it initially writes fast charging until the phone is hot. then stop. That's why it comes across as spirited whether it's charging fast or slow. I tested this by putting my phone in the freezer for 5 minutes after slow charging and now it goes on fast charge. I hope that with this I can at least fully charge the phone. I also put an ice pack on my phone while it's on the stand. Although I seem to have found the problem and the solution - this is stupid and Google shouldn't even release a product with such a bug. I don't have to put my phone in the freezer or put ice packs on it to fully charge it in the charging station.
