Pixel 2 fast charging needs USB-C Power Delivery, not merely a USB-C port or Quick Charge label. Its wired limit is about 18W through a PD profile such as 9V/2A. A higher-rated PD charger is safe but will not force more power into the phone. PPS is useful for newer devices but is not required for Pixel 2. Use USB-C to USB-C for PD; USB-A and Quick Charge-only connections do not provide the same path.
