This year’s Pixel leaks are showing no signs of coming to an end. After reputed leakster Evan Blass shared an early look at the second-gen Pixel Stand earlier last week, tech YouTuber M. Brandon Lee recently leaked the key specifications of the upcoming charging stand, along with its color variants and pricing.
According to the leak, the new Pixel Stand can wirelessly charge Pixel 6 phones at up to 23W. The charging speed drops to 15W on non-Pixel Qi-certified devices. Apart from charging phones, the new Pixel Stand includes a dedicated coil for charging wearables (like the now-delayed Pixel Watch?) and Pixel Buds at up to 3W.
Pixel 6 and 6 Pro Launch in India?
Specifications aside, one interesting tidbit in the Pixel Stand listing is the countries mentioned in the warranty. It looks like the new Pixel Stand will have a 1-year warranty in the U.S, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and India. Yeah, the leaked listing name-drops India, which makes us really curious.
Unless Google wants to convince Indian customers to purchase a 15W Qi wireless charger, this might just be a hint that Google could bring Pixel 6 to India sooner or later to utilize the charger’s 23W potential and expand the Pixel ecosystem. However, this is merely speculation for now and we could expect Google to spill the beans at its launch event on October 19.
