Wasserstein’s Affordable USB-C Charger Enhances Pixel Watch 4 Portability
The Pixel Watch 4 has introduced a new charging mechanism, featuring side-mounted pins that facilitate faster charging and a vertical dock design for improved bedside visibility. However, this change has rendered many existing accessories incompatible, leaving users in search of suitable alternatives.
Addressing this need, Wasserstein, a recognized Made for Google partner, has unveiled the USB-C On the Go charger tailored for the Pixel Watch 4. This compact accessory is designed to accommodate both the 41mm and 45mm models of the watch. Notably, it lacks a fixed cable, instead offering a USB-C port that allows users to connect any compatible cable, enhancing its portability. Additionally, the charger is equipped with a loop and clip, making it convenient to attach to bags or backpacks during travel.
Early user feedback highlights the charger’s strong magnetic connection and charging efficiency comparable to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) charger. Priced at an attractive $9 on Wasserstein’s official website, it presents a cost-effective alternative to Google’s official charger, which is listed at $29.99.
As of February 20, 2026, Wasserstein has indicated that the charger is out of stock on their website but anticipates a restock within the next three to four weeks. In the interim, the charger is available on Amazon at a higher price point of $29.99. The price discrepancy is attributed to the costs associated with selling through different retailers.
This development underscores the evolving accessory landscape for the Pixel Watch 4, as third-party manufacturers strive to offer compatible and affordable solutions to meet user demands.
