Recommends</a>) sets a new standard for mid-range smartphones. It's a little pricier than last year's Pixel 6A but packed with nearly every top-end feature you could want. This iteration includes <a href="https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-wireless-chargers/">wireless charging</a>, which is really uncommon for phones under $500. You also get a <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/high-refresh-rate-explained/">90-Hz screen refresh rate</a>, which makes the onscreen interactions look and feel more fluid as there are more frames per second than before. </p><div class="Container-bkChBi byNLHx"/><p class="paywall">Its design and build are similar to its predecessor, though Google claims the aluminum mid-frame is slightly more durable. There's Gorilla Glass 3 on the front 6.1-inch screen, which isn't as scratch-resistant as some of the glass on pricier Pixels, but at least the rear is a plastic composite that won't crack. This model comes in Charcoal, Sea, and Snow, but there's a <a data-offer-url="https://store.google.com/config/pixel_7a?hl=en-US&amp;selections=eyJlOCI6ImNHbDRaV3hmTjJFPSIsIklpIjpbWyIyIiwiTWc9PSJdXX0%3D" class="external-link" data-event-click="{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2nyX54FpjYWf4GaAQVsk4dxFrwNsZ3WiwuSTGqKnDydo8zT6NKuMUkARxPoAhMzN2ijMsDDXkemFEW5h2VVnmEXqXoQu5nPqnDK2WPqFs1qYRZeviD3vc342pLPXMn2kTeJvw4LrWN9TE2sSswdzPutdLEo8QzbWmTJQkQz6cHEKBf1AWoBigbQfgXLBVVo9kQPbrpkuTHqvH31RU94zi63U3RmCG7jwQAU8BCeNFqf4WpfRxayFPPZ8H&quot;}" href="https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2nyX54FpjYWf4GaAQVsk4dxFrwNsZ3WiwuSTGqKnDydo8zT6NKuMUkARxPoAhMzN2ijMsDDXkemFEW5h2VVnmEXqXoQu5nPqnDK2WPqFs1qYRZeviD3vc342pLPXMn2kTeJvw4LrWN9TE2sSswdzPutdLEo8QzbWmTJQkQz6cHEKBf1AWoBigbQfgXLBVVo9kQPbrpkuTHqvH31RU94zi63U3RmCG7jwQAU8BCeNFqf4WpfRxayFPPZ8H" rel="sponsored" target="_blank">Google Store–exclusive Coral</a> that has my eye. </p><div data-attr-viewport-monitor="inline-recirc" class="inline-recirc-wrapper inline-recirc-observer-target-1 viewport-monitor-anchor"/><p class="paywall">You won't run into any problems with performance. It's powered by Google's Tensor G2 chipset, which is the same one that's inside the Pixel 7 Pro. It's plenty fast for everyday tasks and most mobile gaming, and it also allows for a few new software tricks, like Photo Unblur, which can use machine learning algorithms to unblur people's faces in those late-night pics. (It actually did this really well when I tried to capture a photo of a bride and groom on the dance floor!)</p></div></div></div><div class="GridItem-buujkM fVLMby grid--item grid-layout__aside"><div

64-megapixel camera leading the pack with a 13-megapixel ultrawide, and while these are not <em>as</em> good as the cameras in the Pixel 7, the results are nearly imperceptible (you have to look really close). It's easily the best camera phone for the money, whether you use it in low light to capture the stars or on a sunny day for a landscape. </p><div class="AdWrapper-dQtivb fZrssQ ad ad--in-content"><div class="ad__slot ad__slot--in-content" data-node-id="i3rgqi"/></div><p class="paywall">A part of the reason why we recommend Pixel phones so much is because of the many great software features that are genuinely helpful every day. We've collected <a href="#tricks">most of them below</a> this guide, but my favorites are Assistant Voice Typing, for much faster and accurate voice transcriptions using the built-in keyboard; Now Playing, to find out what music is playing around me without having to search for it; and Call Screen, which has pretty much stopped all spam calls coming my way. It'll also get five years of security updates, so it'll be supported for quite a while. Unfortunately, Google only promises three OS upgrades (Samsung offers four). It’s disappointing that Google isn’t leading here, especially when Apple’s 5-year-old iPhone XR will <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/apple-iphone-ios-17-ipados-17-new-features/">receive iOS 17</a>.</p><p class="paywall">The only things that are iffy on the Pixel 7A are the fingerprint sensor, which isn't as snappy or reliable as I'd like, and the battery life. The 4,385-mAh cell, with average use, can take you through a full day, but on busy days, you will most likely need to top up before the sun goes down. There's also no microSD card slot or headphone jack, so you'll have to look elsewhere if you want a phone with those features. </p><p class="paywall"><em>Works on all three major US carriers</em></p><div role="heading" aria-level="4" class="paywall heading-h4">A Small Upgrade: <a data-offer-url="https://www.amazon.com/Google-Pixel-7-5G-Android-Phone/dp/B0BCQVRH38" class="external-link" data-event-click="{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://cna.st/affiliate-link/8UAFzxJzvSuamCvvVv22vzFTTKWx4UwHLWmso3mZYQTTdb3FVfGXNs1THRYeatPFGspg8AkRZviEJFgynDi7N7goT3BqmzmUXEKSCoV1h6NcYk4Z6rFyabgEiuxihZQyK8CxG4hiBeqLdwQJd1Yg9VG3CGghQxqAb9zsyqiFBZaWJdgspAH&quot;}" href="https://cna.st/affiliate-link/8UAFzxJzvSuamCvvVv22vzFTTKWx4UwHLWmso3mZYQTTdb3FVfGXNs1THRYeatPFGspg8AkRZviEJFgynDi7N7goT3BqmzmUXEKSCoV1h6NcYk4Z6rFyabgEiuxihZQyK8CxG4hiBeqLdwQJd1Yg9VG3CGghQxqAb9zsyqiFBZaWJdgspAH" rel="sponsored" target="_blank">Google Pixel 7 ($599)</a></div><div class="GenericCalloutWrapper-tojWn lgROjj callout--has-top-border" data-testid="GenericCallout"><figure class="AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed"><div class="AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container"><span class="SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset"><picture class="ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image"><noscript><img alt="Google Pixel 7 smartphones in three different colors" class="ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image" src="https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_1600%2Cc_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg" srcset="https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_120,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 120w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_240,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 240w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_320,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 320w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_640,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 640w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_960,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 960w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_1280,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 1280w, https://media.wired.com/photos/633dc4042d9f11bddfef6a1a/master/w_1600,c_limit/Google-Pixel-7-All-Colors-Gear.jpg 1600w" sizes="100vw"/></noscript></picture></span></div><div class="CaptionWrapper-jSZdqE kJoQGV caption AssetEmbedCaption-fNQBPI dDrfgT asset-embed__caption"><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionText-bHjzlu iUEiRd cDlTYw iXWezO caption__text"><p>Pixel 7</p> </span><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit">Photograph: Google</span></div></figure></div><p class="paywall">The Pixel 7 (<a href="https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-7-pixel-7-pro/">8/10, WIRED Recommends</a>) isn't quite a no-brainer now that the nearly identical Pixel 7A exists.

Recommends</a>) remains an excellent buy, especially at its new price of $349 (<strong>note:</strong> it <em>frequently</em> sells for $299). Like the Pixel 7A, you get a sharp, 6.1-inch OLED screen that gets just bright enough to read in direct sunlight (not as bright as the Pixel 7A). It’s a wonderfully compact phone, unlike most devices on the market right now, and feels well made. The front is Gorilla Glass 3, so you’ll want to use a screen protector to protect it from scratches, but there’s an aluminum frame with clicky buttons and a plastic composite back that is deceptively luxurious. It comes in sage, too. Hooray green phones!</p><p class="paywall">Inside is Google’s first-gen <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/google-pixel-6-tensor-chip-security/">Tensor chip</a>, which is the same that powers the flagships from 2021, the <a href="https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-6-and-pixel-6-pro/">Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro</a>. Even today, it means you’re getting some of the best performance for the money. I rarely noticed any slowdowns, even while playing games like <em>Apex Legends Mobile.</em> This also brings all the top software features that debuted in the Pixel 6 series onto this phone, from Magic Eraser in Google Photos to erase unwanted objects in the background of your images to Assistant Voice Typing for sending messages with just your voice.</p></div></div></div><div

so the Pixel 6A can survive being submerged in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. You might be miffed about the in-display fingerprint sensor—like the Pixel 7A, it's fine but not as snappy. It'll also get three OS upgrades and five years of security updates (from the date it was launched). </p><div data-attr-viewport-monitor="inline-recirc" class="inline-recirc-wrapper inline-recirc-observer-target-2 viewport-monitor-anchor"/><p class="paywall">You’ll find the same main 12-megapixel camera sensor Google has been using on the Pixel 5 and prior Pixels, and it’s joined by a 12-megapixel ultrawide. It’s a reliable system that manages to beat out much of the midrange competition even now. However, the camera hardware <em>is</em> starting to show its age. Some newer budget and midrange phone cameras pull more detail, particularly in low light with their larger image sensors, and the Pixel 6A’s images can sometimes come out grainy. I’m mostly being nitpicky here, but only because Pixel cameras are supposed to be the best of the best. </p><p class="paywall">My biggest gripes are that there’s no wireless charging, no headphone jack, and no charging adapter in the box, and you’re stuck with 128 GB of storage and no microSD card slot to expand it. The screen is also just 60 Hz, despite many competitors adopting <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/high-refresh-rate-explained/">90- or 120-Hz panels</a> for smoother interactions.

the Pixel 7 Pro (<a href="https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-7-pixel-7-pro/">8/10, WIRED Recommends</a>) is the luxe Pixel to buy, and at $899, it undercuts the competition for what you get. The large 6.7-inch screen has a <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/high-refresh-rate-explained/">120-Hz screen refresh rate</a>, making it feel more fluid to interact with, and it gets a tiny bit brighter on the sunniest days for a no-squinting experience. The bigger size also means a bigger 5,000-mAh battery that lasts a full day and a morning with average use. There's wireless charging, slightly <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/ip-ratings-explained/">better IP68 water resistance</a>, and Face Unlock. Like the Pixel 7A, it's powered by the Tensor G2, and will happily run any app and game you throw at it. </p><p class="paywall">The Pixel 7 Pro has a 50-MP primary camera joined by a 12-MP ultrawide, and they take some truly stunning shots in a variety of conditions. Real Tone, the company's image algorithms that ensure that the camera preserves accurate colors for people with darker skin, helps make it a cut above the rest. There are improvements to the video camera experience as well, like 10-bit HDR for more colorful and better-exposed clips, but overall, the iPhone is ahead in video quality. The iPhone also tends to deliver sharper selfies, except in low-light scenes. </p><p class="paywall">The real reason you should go for the Pixel 7 Pro is if you find yourself wishing your smartphone camera could zoom in more and snap better photos at that high zoom level. It has a 5X optical camera, so you'll get crystal-clear shots of objects far away. Better yet, improvements to Google's Super Res Zoom algorithm mean photos you capture from 2X all the way up to 30X look pretty darn good. I found it works best at 10X, where my shots were absurdly close to the quality of the 10X optical camera in <a href="https://www.wired.com/review/samsung-galaxy-s23-and-s23-ultra/">Samsung's Galaxy S22 Ultra</a>. The ultrawide camera now also has autofocus that enables a new Macro Focus mode, so you can snap sharp photos of super close-up subjects. It's not as great value as the Pixel 7A, but the Pixel 7 Pro will still impress. It's often on sale for $749, so try not to pay full price.</p></div></div></div><div class="GridItem-buujkM fVLMby grid--item grid-layout__aside"><div class="StickyBoxWrapper-jfYBuk jxBcTH

(<a href="https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-fold/">8/10, WIRED Recommends</a>) is the most expensive Pixel ever at $1,799. But it's also the only one in the lineup that actually folds in half, like a book. Do you <em>need</em> a folding phone? Probably not. Should you pay this much for a smartphone? Definitely not.

I've genuinely found them to be an improvement over traditional rectangular smartphones. There are still a few hurdles that prevent me from recommending them to just anyone. The first is price. This is just too much to pay for a phone. Next is durability. The Pixel Fold is <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/ip-ratings-explained/">IPX8 water resistant</a>, so it'll be fine if you drop it in a pool, but it's not rated for dust protection. Dust is <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/samsung-delays-galaxy-fold/">notoriously bad</a> for these devices as it can damage the display. The Fold should be OK in most situations, but you'll want to be much more careful than you are with your current phone. </p><p class="paywall">If you can stomach those problems, I had a lot of fun using the Pixel Fold. It doesn't introduce never-before-seen features on a booklike folding phone, but the wider 5.8-inch front screen makes it far more comfortable to use than, say, the <a href="https://www.wired.com/review/samsung-galaxy-z-flip4-galaxy-z-fold4/">Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4</a>. Open it up and you're treated to an expansive 7.6-inch OLED panel that's excellent for multitasking with split-screen apps. That's really the main draw here. It makes all the everyday phone tasks a little easier, whether you want to check an email and your calendar at the same time or message a friend a few restaurant recommendations as you peruse Google Maps. </p><p class="paywall"><em>Works on all three major US carriers</em></p><hr class="paywall"/><figure class="AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed"><div class="AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container"><span class="SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset"><picture class="ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image"><noscript><img alt="google pixel 7 pro" class="ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image" src="https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_1600%2Cc_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg" srcset="https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_120,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 120w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_240,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 240w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_320,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 320w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_640,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 640w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_960,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 960w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_1280,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 1280w, https://media.wired.com/photos/642799e29a4669561fee606e/master/w_1600,c_limit/Android-14-Google-Pixel-7-Pro-Gear.jpg 1600w" sizes="100vw"/></noscript></picture></span></div><div class="CaptionWrapper-jSZdqE kJoQGV caption AssetEmbedCaption-fNQBPI dDrfgT asset-embed__caption"><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit">Photograph: Google</span></div></figure><div style="outline:none" id="support" tabindex="-1"><div role="heading" aria-level="3" class="paywall heading-h3">How Long Is Your Pixel Supported?</div></div><p class="paywall">All current Pixel phones will get three years of Android operating system updates and five years of monthly security updates from the date of launch.

Google says if you already subscribe to one of these services, your current plans will be canceled and you'll get a single bill for Pixel Pass once your Pixel ships (though you will need to manually cancel YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium before subscribing to Pixel Pass). </p><div class="ButtonCalloutWrapper-gcDvLg ctLvRA" data-testid="ButtonCalloutWrapper"><a href="https://cna.st/affiliate-link/7EaqjGTiGVEZLp3V8cNUqtxvpBSWgWq7Un1r4W4nuVE2dvGoAhVLCfuJwmg577QipdSD5RFomvHdRKfMj52nfccgGvAW1tjJuXRYiipYiPxHmxrSuSpBcdMD3U6z4GRJ42mi7aTYrCpfVLWtWUXL9" rel="sponsored" target="_blank" class="BaseButton-bLlsy ButtonWrapper-xCepQ fhIjxp jMbrrT button button--primary-pair" data-event-click="{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;Button&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://cna.st/affiliate-link/7EaqjGTiGVEZLp3V8cNUqtxvpBSWgWq7Un1r4W4nuVE2dvGoAhVLCfuJwmg577QipdSD5RFomvHdRKfMj52nfccgGvAW1tjJuXRYiipYiPxHmxrSuSpBcdMD3U6z4GRJ42mi7aTYrCpfVLWtWUXL9&quot;}" data-testid="Button" title="Learn More About Pixel Pass" type=""><span class="ButtonLabel-cjAuJN hzwRuG button__label">Learn More About Pixel Pass</span></a></div><hr class="paywall"/><div style="outline:none" id="olderpixels" tabindex="-1"><div role="heading" aria-level="3" class="paywall heading-h3">About Those Older Pixel Phones</div></div><figure class="AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed"><div class="AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container"><span class="SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset"><picture class="ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image"><noscript><img alt="Google Pixel 6" class="ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image" src="https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_1600%2Cc_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg" srcset="https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_120,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 120w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_240,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 240w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_320,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 320w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_640,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 640w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_960,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 960w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_1280,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 1280w, https://media.wired.com/photos/616e0c76a53804056cba5f93/master/w_1600,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-6-yellow.jpg 1600w" sizes="100vw"/></noscript></picture></span></div><div class="CaptionWrapper-jSZdqE kJoQGV caption AssetEmbedCaption-fNQBPI dDrfgT asset-embed__caption"><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionText-bHjzlu iUEiRd cDlTYw iXWezO caption__text"><p>Pixel 6 Pro</p> </span><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit">Photograph: Google</span></div></figure><p class="paywall">The <a href="https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-6-and-pixel-6-pro/">Pixel 6 series</a> from 2021 is not available at the Google Store anymore.

For the Pixel Fold, the screen protector is only for the external display. </p><figure class="AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed"><div class="AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container"><span class="SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset"><picture class="ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image"><noscript><img alt="Google Pixel Wireless Charging Stand Gen 2" class="ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image" src="https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_1600%2Cc_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg" srcset="https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_120,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 120w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_240,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 240w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_320,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 320w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_640,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 640w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_960,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 960w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_1280,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 1280w, https://media.wired.com/photos/622272cfab021a50b1fb7124/master/w_1600,c_limit/Gear-Google-Pixel-Stand-Gen-2-SOURCE-Google.jpg 1600w" sizes="100vw"/></noscript></picture></span></div><div class="CaptionWrapper-jSZdqE kJoQGV caption AssetEmbedCaption-fNQBPI dDrfgT asset-embed__caption"><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionText-bHjzlu iUEiRd cDlTYw iXWezO caption__text"><p>Google Pixel Stand (Gen 2)</p> </span><span class="BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit">Photograph: Google</span></div></figure><div role="heading" aria-level="4" class="paywall heading-h4"><a data-offer-url="https://www.amazon.com/Google-Pixel-Stand-2nd-Gen/dp/B09HL8RZ6W?th=1" class="external-link" data-event-click="{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2NgESoWeXFtJYcVsGk3DzpGiA6RxbKsJsn26CLt9Doqb1ZAEH2dqsRmp5BFit6Mikhkygk98Xii4SRydTrR4eEDHanWtPyWqhiNYQLLWpNb3UR31dxEo9BBxKtU1KZPFmW1je?cid=5f7b6765126693e1dc256c36&quot;}" href="https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2NgESoWeXFtJYcVsGk3DzpGiA6RxbKsJsn26CLt9Doqb1ZAEH2dqsRmp5BFit6Mikhkygk98Xii4SRydTrR4eEDHanWtPyWqhiNYQLLWpNb3UR31dxEo9BBxKtU1KZPFmW1je?cid=5f7b6765126693e1dc256c36" rel="sponsored" target="_blank">Google Pixel Stand 2nd-Gen Wireless Charger for $79</a></div><p class="paywall">Of the Pixels we recommend in this guide, wireless charging is available only on the Pixel Fold, Pixel 7A, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro (plus the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro).

There's an inner two-piece polycarbonate shell that snaps over and under the Pixel, and then a thick synthetic rubber slipcover goes over for extreme durability. The buttons are surprisingly clicky, though the whole phone will be thicker, wider, and heavier. It's made of more than 50 percent recycled plastic, and there's a holster you can pop it in to carry your Pixel with pride on your belt. (The holster can double as a kickstand.)
