TL;DR<\/p>\n
Several reports have surfaced of Pixel 10 Pro Fold phones failing to report battery status, instead showing a ? icon.
\nGoogle says the issue is caused by using \u201cincompatible\u201d wireless chargers.
\nA reboot should fix the issue, Google says. It\u2019s recommended Pixel 10 owners use certified Qi2 wireless chargers.<\/p>\n
Update, October 24, 2025 (11:58 AM ET): A Google spokesperson tells\u00a0Android Authority\u00a0that this issue is \u201ccaused by using an incompatible wireless charger,\u201d and that a reboot will typically fix it. The spokesperson also said that this behavior will be fixed in an update rolling out next month. Google recommends using certified Qi2 wireless chargers with its phones. If you\u2019re still seeing a question mark next to your battery indicator after rebooting your phone, contact Google support.<\/p>\n
Original article, October 23, 2025 (12:02 PM ET): The Pixel 10 Pro Fold<\/a> was released just a couple of weeks ago, and as it often goes, problems are cropping up now that it\u2019s in the wild. Namely, multiple users are reporting an unexplained battery issue that might require a warranty claim.<\/p>\n PiunikaWeb<\/a> spotted that a significant number of users are reporting their Pixel 10 Pro Fold has stopped reliably reporting its battery status. Multiple users on the Pixel Fold subreddit, posting as far back as the day after the phone\u2019s launch (user raremagicien<\/a>) and as recently as yesterday (user dancemiasma<\/a>), say that a question mark has appeared next to the battery icon on their new Pixel 10 Pro Folds.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n While it\u2019s obviously something to do with the 10 Pro Fold\u2019s battery, we don\u2019t know exactly what\u2019s causing the error. In a comment on a Pixel Phone Help support forum post from 2023, \u201cPlatinum Product Expert\u201d justIvan<\/a> says that, in the case of the Pixel 4, a question mark appearing alongside the battery icon means the battery is \u201cfaulty.\u201d<\/p>\n The existence of multiple reports doesn\u2019t necessarily mean this is a widespread issue, but it does prove the problem isn\u2019t a one-off. It\u2019s also unlikely that all the reports of the issue have been somehow caused by user error.<\/p>\n Google hasn\u2019t addressed the Pixel 10 Pro Fold\u2019s battery problem publicly. Commenters on the Pixel Fold subreddit speculate that the question mark could be appearing due to a bug, or the use of non-Qi2-compliant wireless chargers.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve reached out to Google for comment; We\u2019ll update this story if we hear back. If you\u2019re seeing a question mark next to the battery icon on your own Pixel 10 Pro Fold, your best bet is likely to contact support for a repair or replacement.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
