Don't just buy any 45W+ PD charger for your Samsung Galaxy Note10+

25 August 2019
You likely won't be getting the full 45W charging speed and here's why.

Whackcar, 25 Aug 2019You would expect a $1100 phone to come with the best access... moreWell its sad truth but its real..

    Good read!

    Well done, GSMARENA

      Whackcar, 25 Aug 2019This is why fanboys are stupid, they defend terrible moves ... moreThat AverageUser guy always bring lame excuses to defend his favourite brand. No matter what Samsung has done, he blindly agrees with it & forgetting the cons about the product.

      Literally bashing Huawei almost on every thread are his full time job. Hilariously all the point he made about Huawei are wrongly accused, big time.

        AverageUser, 25 Aug 2019Well, 45W charging can't be good for your battery. And if ... moreThis is why fanboys are stupid, they defend terrible moves like this with absurd reasoning.

        1.) Either all fast-charging is bad, or none is. Saying 25w fast-charging is fine, but 45w fast-charging is bad is pretty ironic & stupid.

        2.) These companies should stop putting chargers & earphones in the box. If we can pay enormous amount of money for the phone, then surely we can pay more for the accessories right? That's the kind of stupid reasoning you've presented us.

            Sigh. Another "standard but not really standard" situation this USB-PD situation has become.

              Many brands has been upgrade its charging speed up to the top. I had my jaw dropped when super vooc was out, 50w is insane for a phone.

              This year is really interesting for a power maniac like me. First we got iqooo from vivo now has wooping 45w charging speed, xiaomi not so less with 27w charging speed but i hear rumour they not happy with it, then oppo the company who brought super vooc now the top phone only has 20w charging speed, Rip super vooc. I still dont understand why oppo do such thing.
              Samsung with their top phone back then had 15w charging speed, now something does come to samsung and make their top phone up to 45w charging speed. Dont make me start with THE iphone.


              Maybe next article gsmarena? Talk about charging speed technology from every brand on the earth.

                Base on various testing review, i think 25w Note 10+ is fast enough. Its just a bit behind 40w Huawei Supercharger produce. Base on logical science, it should be almost half time behind, but its not. So all good.

                But does the $1100 pricing justify the product? If compared to Iphone XS Max, yes its a lot better. But with others? Hell no.

                  You have to be special kind of person to spend 1100$ on a phone and then buy third party charger for it, with super fast charging on your mind...
                  Easiest way to wreck your battery...

                    Cyber, 25 Aug 2019Third party chargers is a joke and will wreck your phones,s... moreI just preordered a 3rd party charger, 65W, 2 C ports and 1 A port, supports almost all the quick charge specs on the market (including PD3.0 but don't know about PPS), about the size of a 65W laptop power brick excluding the cables.
                    ~$30.

                      And if you just spent 1100$ on a phone then how is it a problem to spend another 50$ on faster charger if you must use 45W for some reason?

                          So sick and tired of these people that keeps blaming Apple for whatever any companies will do or follow. My God. Can't we just keep our mouth shut and buy whatever suits us without blaming others? Yes, I'm an Apple user but that does not mean I know nothing about android. I'm an avid samsung droid user since the very first galaxy S. But it does not turn me into something so hateful to a point wherein I am blaming or judging other phone makers just because they did something that does not suit my taste or needs. I simply just don't buy it. Keep chill. It's not a war.

                            Samsung really suck... Give a way together with fast charger is that difficult?
                            Wanna earn money until doing this shit... Huawei oppo just give away together with their product... samsung Really sick

                              So from the article it seems samsung has just implemented the latest iteration of usb pd.. Now question is.. At what speed will it charge other fast charge devices?? We would definitely read an article like that

                                Really well-informed article. as a nerd in this stuff, this cant be hard to understand. We just need to wait for usbif to update its power delivery protocol and oem to applied the change.

                                  Problem is the tests show that speed difference between 25 and 45 was almost non-existent.

                                      https://youtu.be/NzkNhGwK6y8

                                        So Samsung use pd 3.0 and make a little tweak. No wonder why there is no charger could achieve 45w with samsung phone. We just need to wait for usb if to update its pps list and then oem can applied the change in its charger.
