In 2026, Pakistani buyers looking for the right charger for their Google Pixel 9 or Pixel 9 Pro need one key fact: both phones charge at up to approximately 27W wired — not the full 45W — when paired with the official Google 45W USB-C Charger using PD 3.1 and PPS. The charger's extra headroom is not wasted; it ensures the phone always gets its maximum safe rate. AvaNext.pk stocks the 100% original Google 45W USB-C Charger in Pakistan with Cash on Delivery, free nationwide delivery, and a 1-year warranty.
What Is the Real Charging Speed of the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro?
The Google 45W charger is rated at 45W, but the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro each draw up to approximately 27W — confirmed in Google's own charging-rate footnotes. This is by design: the phone's battery management system controls how much power it draws, keeping temperatures low and protecting long-term battery health.
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Phone | Google Pixel 9 / Pixel 9 Pro |
| Max Wired Draw | ~27W (per Google footnote) |
| Charger Required | Google 45W USB-C (PD 3.1 + PPS) |
| Charging Protocol | USB PD 3.1 with PPS |
| Authenticity | 100% Original at AvaNext |
| Payment | Cash on Delivery (COD) Nationwide |
| Warranty | 1-Year Brand Warranty |
| Returns | 7-Day Replacement Policy |
Is the 45W Charger Overkill for the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro?
Not at all — and here is why. The Pixel 9 and 9 Pro cap at ~27W, so a good PD 3.1 PPS charger rated anywhere from 25W to 45W will reach their maximum speed. The Google 45W is the smart choice if you may upgrade to a Pixel 9 Pro XL or Pixel 10 Pro XL later, since those models draw higher wattage and the same charger covers them all.
A non-PPS charger — even if labelled "45W" — will charge the Pixel 9 noticeably slower because the phone requires PPS to negotiate its optimal rate.

| Pixel 9 Pro XL | ~37W | Google 45W (PPS) |
| Pixel 10 Pro XL | ~45W (true 45W) | Google 45W (PPS) |
