OnePlus 3T's Dash Charge goes up against Google Pixel XL's USB-PD in video battle of fast charging tech

16 November 2016
OnePlus unveiled the 3T yesterday, as you may know. It's a OnePlus 3 lookalike that comes with improved specs, one of which is a bigger battery capacity. The 3,400 mAh cell should hopefully ensure a good day's use for anyone, but what about how fast you can charge it? Like the OnePlus 3 before it, the OnePlus 3T uses Dash Charge, a proprietary technology that the company claims is the fastest out there.

Anonymous, 16 Nov 2016Another fail from Google Pixel XL If you can call using industry standards as a failure.. perhaps you are truly an Apple fan by nature? (a fan of proprietary technology)

    ithehappy, 16 Nov 2016Nice. But I more care about the heatmap of both devices whi... moreOnePlus 3 always is cool. While charging never gets hot. If it does, you can return your phone. Oneplus charges with Dash charge 5v@4A while pixel charges 5v@3A and 9v@2A or so. Higher voltage makes heat.

      3t didn't do that much better. Would've been nice to see temperature.

        Another fail from Google Pixel XL

          Nice. But I more care about the heatmap of both devices while being charged rather than small difference in percentage counter.

            Doesn't Pixel XL support QC 3.0?
