A few months back, we reported that Qualcomm is working on bringing its revolutionary 100W+ fast charge to compatible devices. The new next-gen fast charging is here already at it seems that Qualcomm is moving forward with its innovation.
According to sources, officially it is only the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra that supports the new fast charging technology. However, Qualcomm recently released an official document stating the name of devices that support the recently developed fast charging facility from Qualcomm. The official list indicates that only less than five devices support 100+W fast charging.
For now, that’s what we know about the devices that support the new fast-charging from Qualcomm, but since CES 2021 is on the horizon, we can expect that more devices will be added to the list of supported devices.
The photo posted on Weibo by the account 充电头 (Charger) shows a white power adapter with Qualcomm Quick Charge 5 printed on one side. It has a white body and a single USB-C output port at the top. But these are the only details available for now.
According to Qualcomm, its new fast-charging is 70% more efficient than Quick Charge 4+ and is also 10°C cooler than Quick Charge 4 and Quick Charge 4+. Hence, we can soon expect many OEMs o adapt to Qualcomm charge 5, but we also expect many manufacturers to come up with their fast charging adapters.
