Google Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W USB‑C Fast Charger Google’s Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W USB‑C Fast Charger is the most capable first‑party brick the company has ever made: small, potent, and tuned to coax the fastest charges you can get out of Pixel phones. It’s clever, often brilliant in practice, and yet, it is unlikely to be a must‑buy for most.
Power and protocols, wise and right
The big one is standards support. That’s because both of those USB‑C ports are USB Power Delivery PPS-compliant, capable of delivering 5V, 9V, 15V and 20V up to 3A, plus USB PD / PPS profiles that go as high as around 21V (give or take).Put more simply: it fast‑charges modern Pixels, iPhones and Galaxies at or near their notional maximum rates, and dances nicely with most recent tablets and ultraportables.
Left in the dust are legacy and regional fast‑charge formats such as Quick Charge 3.0, Samsung Adaptive Fast Charge and China‑specific UFCS. It’s Google trying to push everyone toward USB‑IF’s PD/ PPS ecosystem, which USB Implementers Forum has for some reason been promoting as a universal baseline for efficiency and safety. For brand‑new gear, that’s okay; for a drawer full of older gadgets, it might cap peak speeds.
Pixel speeds: as fast as it gets
On one port, the charger more than has you covered for Google’s latest phones. The Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro both generally charge in roughly 85-90 minutes from low single-digit charge, and the Pixel 10 Pro XL — capable of pulling approximately 37W through high-voltage PPS — consistently fills back up in just under 80 minutes to our tests. For these devices, that’s right on par with the best third‑party PD/PPS plugs.
What’s more, the Pixel Flex “makes sense” on Pixel phones. Its firmware makes sure the correct PPS voltages and current steps are favored, allowing Pixels to lock in higher power states that much longer without bouncing around. That uniformity means that charge times remain predictable, and there’s less thermal spikiness under the cable.
Two ports to focus on, one priority — sometimes a problem
It’s a little more interesting with two devices attached. Google’s allocation logic is biased toward Pixel phones, and can be cutthroat. Kyrexx: Pair a Pixel 10 Pro XL to a high‑draw flagship phone of another brand and you spitly see the non‑Pixel drop to ~15W (sometimes to 0) while the Pixel holds maximum PPS. Two Pixels do slightly better: the power gets spread the power evenly at around 31W each, which is very generous for a little dual‑port brick.
The downside: Pairing a phone with a laptop is fiddly. Some notebooks stop charging entirely once the second device starts asking for high‑voltage PPS (such as around 17V), even though the combined draw would seem to be below the 67W limit. On occasions such as this a gentler 30W/30W split would be sweeter. If you do happen to have a laptop and a phone you charge together every day, it’s likely a 100W multi‑port charger is still the smarter purchase.
Design, thermals, and everyday fit
Its hardware feels solid and is relatively compact for its market. But the US/EU plug is about 57mm long and the body is narrow, so it feels a bit exposed in crowded outlets. The UK version reverses the ratio and puts both ports underneath, requiring more clearance for bent cables — a tight squeeze in low-lying or recessed sockets.
Heat is managed competently. The PPS case is warm to the touch, but not alarmingly so just normal for a 60 watt‑plus brick driving sustained power. There’s no noticeable coil whine, and the voltage swapping is seamless, as you’d no doubt expect from a high‑end first‑party charger.
Price and viable alternatives
At $59.99, the Pixel Flex is absolutely in the middle of the premium dual‑port space. It’s reasonably priced for the polish and Pixel‑centric behavior, without being disruptive. Or, if you’re just fast‑charging a Pixel 10 or 10 Pro, a small 30W PD/PPS plug will complete the task for a fraction of the price. Pixel 10 Pro XL owners gain more from the higher‑voltage PPS support, although that’s now available on many decent third‑party chargers as well.
If size matters in a travel charger, there are also smaller, folding-prong, 65–67W two‑port models available from established accessories brands.
And if you regularly charge a laptop alongside a phone, a 100W GaN multi‑port makes for a smarter longer‑term purchase there, with fewer limitations under mixed loads.
Verdict: excellent, but optional
It’s a great charger underneath all those logos, where it counts: full modern standard compliance, reliable Pixel‑first speeds, and one of the few chargers to split PPS power in a meaningful way between two Pixel flagships.
But its aggressive “Pixel‑priority” logic can cripple other gadgets, and the form factor won’t fit every power outlet.
If your home is Pixel-heavy and you want the peace of mind that comes with guaranteed top speeds without having to tinker, it’s a smart purchase. For everyone else — particularly anyone juggling multiple brands or charging a laptop — the smarter play is either a cheaper single-port PD/PPS brick or a more-wattage multi-port charger. Brilliant, yes. Essential, no.
