"Google Pixel 8 to Feature 12W Wireless Charging, No Qi2 Upgrade"
The Google Pixel 8 has been certified for Qi wireless charging, but won't include the recently announced Qi2 standard. The Pixel 8 will offer the same maximum Qi charging rate of 12 W as the Pixel 7. The WPC says that Qi2 could open wireless charging to new form factors that "wouldn't be chargeable using current flat surface-to-flat surface devices." The Pixel 8 Pro details have not yet been published.
