What
is Quick Charge? Qualcomm Quick Charge 4 and Quick Charge 3 explained
Qualcomm
has announced Quick Charge 4, which will bring even faster charging and other
new features to devices including smartphones this year. We explain what is
Quick Charge.
The
headline feature of Quick Charge 4 is something called ‘5 in 5’ meaning you can
get five hours worth of battery life from just a five minute long charge. Quick
Charge will be available via the upcoming Snapdragon 835 processor which
Qualcomm has given the first details on.
Thanks
to technologies such as ‘Dual Charge’, ‘typical premium phone users’ can expect
to see up to 20 percent faster charging and 30 percent higher efficiency
compared to Quick Charge 3.0.
“As
mobile devices become more capable and feature rich, people tend to use them
more. That’s why consumer demand and awareness for fast-charging solutions is
now at an all-time high. Quick Charge 4 addresses that need by providing up to
50 percent battery charge in roughly 15minutes or less, so you don’t have to
spend all day chained to your charging cable,” said Alex Katouzian, senior vice
president of product management at Qualcomm Technologies.
With
a bigger focus on safety following events such as the Samsung Galaxy Note 7,
Qualcomm has added some features in Quick Charge 4. This includes voltage,
current and temperature protection as well as cable quality and type detection.
Interestingly,
Qualcomm mentioned that there will be two upcoming phones from undisclosed
manufacturers which will contain 7000+mAh batteries.
