I have a CB315-3H-C19A model Acer Chromebook. I also have a Google Pixel 6 cell phone.


The charger on the cell phone has the same voltage and amps as the charger on the laptop.


Can I use the cell phone charger to charge the laptop?

    @ejfreeman0339 technically, yes, the phone charger will work with the Chromebook. But make sure that charger is equivalent or has higher wattage than the laptop charger.

    Please remember to include @AnhEZ28 when you want to reply back to my comment so that I can check your response.
    Thank you and have a nice day!

    The Google Pixel 6 uses a 30W power supply, your laptop uses a 45W power supply... 30W will not work to charge unless the laptop is turned off.
