Mobile phones that support fast charging

Here’s a detailed breakdown of fast-charging phones, covering technical standards, mainstream brands and models, charging performance data, and the impact of fast-charging technology on battery life:

 1. Definition and technical standards for fast charging

1.  The average current entering the battery within 30 minutes ≥3A;
2.  30-minute charge ≥ 60% of the battery’s rated capacity.
     Technical implementations fall into three categories:

• Type I (High Voltage Fast Charging): Increase power by increasing the output voltage of the adapter (e.g., USB PD, QC protocol);
• Type II (high-current fast charging): achieved by increasing the output current (e.g. OPPO VOOC);
• Type III (Hybrid Boost): Increases voltage and current at the same time (e.g. Huawei SCP).

 2. Mainstream brands and models that support fast charging

 1. Apple

•  Fast charging protocol: USB PD (up to 27W).
• Representative models: iPhone 8 and later models (such as iPhone 15 Pro series), which can be charged to more than 50% in 30 minutes.

 2. Huawei

• 快充协议：SCP（SuperCharge Protocol，最高100W）。
•  Representative models:
  •  Mate 30 series (40W, 72% charge in 30 minutes);
  •  P40 Pro+ (40W wireless fast charging);
  •  Mate X5 (66W wired + 50W wireless)

 3. Samsung

•  Fast Charging Protocol: PPS (up to 45W).
• Representative models: Galaxy S22 Ultra (45W, 70% charge in 35 minutes), Note 20 series (25W).
  
  

 4. OPPO/OnePlus

• Fast charging protocol: VOOC/SuperVOOC (up to 240W).
•  Representative models:
  • OPPO Reno Ace (65W, fully charged in 30 minutes);
  •  OnePlus 12 (30W Warp Flash Charge).

 5. Xiaomi

•  Fast charging protocol: PD, QC, PPS (up to 210W).
•  Representative models:
  •  Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra (120W, fully charged in 23 minutes);
  •  Xiaomi 13 Ultra (90W, fully charged in 46 minutes)

6. vivo/iQOO

• Fast charging protocol: FlashCharge (up to 200W).
• Representative model: iQOO 7 (120W, 100% charge in 15 minutes).

 7. Other Brands

• Meizu: Super mCharge (55W, not mass-produced);
• realme: supports 65W PD fast charging (such as realme GT series).
  
  

 3. The impact of fast charging technology on battery life

 1. Comparison of different technologies

• Low voltage and high current (e.g., VOOC): Extends battery life by reducing voltage conversion heat generation.
• High-voltage fast charging (such as QC, PD): It needs to be de-fired through the internal pressure of the mobile phone, which may generate more heat, but the impact on modern battery management chips is controllable after optimization.
• Ultra-high power (e.g., 120W): Despite fast charging, high temperatures can accelerate battery wear. Experiments have shown that the battery capacity retention rate of 120W fast charging is about 80% after 800 cycles.

 2. Recommendations for extending battery life

•  Avoid charging while using high loads (e.g. gaming);
•  Use the original charger and cable to match the protocol;
•  Calibrate the battery regularly (e.g., fully charged and discharged 1 time/month).

 4. Summary and Suggestions

1. Technology selection: Priority is given to devices compatible with USB PD protocol (strong versatility), and proprietary protocols (such as VOOC, SCP) need to be paired with original accessories.
2. Power requirements: 30-65W is enough for daily use, and models above 100W (such as game phones) can be selected for extreme speed.
3.  Battery maintenance: Use fast charging reasonably to avoid charging in extreme temperature environments.

Through the above analysis, users can choose a mobile phone that supports fast charging according to their own needs, and reasonably balance the charging speed and battery life.
