Charge test: Battle of the fast chargers

10 April, 2015
Smartphone batteries piggybacked on the growing screen size to go up in capacity to support both the screen and faster chipsets. Slower to deplete, the new batteries also proved slower to charge so manufacturers tackled the issue with new standards.

Sort by:

15 watts is definetley better regardless of the battery size. Right now we are between 2200 and 3200, it is a more than small difference but it's fine

        Android has managed to just copy the iPhone fingerprint sensor, and the design of the phone nicely - well done, only 2 years behind. Still not copied 3D touch - but give it time.

        Yes, iPhone is well behind...

                    My flex 2 had the fast charger and I must say it is really convenient. After two hours of gaming when the battery is about 10% I need almost an hour for full charging.
