This phone supposedly support fast charging but I don't think its working with the included 5v 2a charger. Have anyone tried charging with a 9v 2a charger?
My phone charges pretty quick in my mind
Mine is not very quick, but way more quicker than One X 2016.
Mine isn't quick, going to try a different charging block

I'm looking for advice on the quickest way to charge my phone.
With the stock (1.5MA) charger and cable I get about 1200mA current of charge
With a Mr Phone 2A charger it maxes at 1000mA charge current
With a friend's Galaxy Tab 2A charger it maxes at 1600mA charge current.
(Figures above were obtained using Battery Monitor Widget app)
So firstly I'm confused as to why the higher rated 2A Mr Phone charges less than the stock 1.5mA charger when the Galaxy Tab charger, with the same specs, is much quicker.
Secondly, what is the maximum current the M8 can charge at?
Thirdly, what have guys found to be the quickest way to charge? I was going to source a Tab charger as that seems to be very quick or order this Anker desktop charger: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Family-Sized-Desktop-Technology-External-Batteries/dp/B00EJA28ES
Check here at "Charge Time" and/or here.
The stock mains is Quick Charge 1.5, so the phone would charge faster than a 2A "non-Quick Charge" mains. If you need a faster charger, get a Quick Charge 2.0 compliant charger.
Edit: Don't think Quick Charge 2.0 mains are available yet. Have to wait for their release.

Quick Charge 1 is not part of a chargers spec. Only QC2 is.
There's no such thing as chargers that are quick charge 1 or 1.5
And that doesn't explain why a 2A Galaxy Tab charger is quicker than another 2A charger

So once the disappointment of my spank new nexus 5x not being qualcomm quick charge 2.0 compatible (I found this out yesterday) after buying new chargers and batteries (portable charger thingamagigs) had subsided I was pleasantly surprised that many of my battery packs were actually charging at what the nexus 5x calls 'rapidly charging'.
So far I can report that these chargers tell me they are rapidly charging:
Aukey 54W 5 port qualcomm quick charge 2.0 wall charger says rapidly charging from both the qc qc 2.0 port and the other ones too.
Anker 2nd Gen astro 6400mah battery says rapidly charging
Anker 2nd Gen astro e5 16000mah battery says rapidly charging
Aukey 10000mah qcqc2.0 (pb-t1) doesn't seem to do anything? Doesn't charge it at all works on the original n5 (without qc obviously). But I find this very odd? I was wrong it does indeed report rapidly charging
How is everyone else getting on with your portable power?
My guess is even though you are getting the rapidly charging rating, you are likely getting 2a of the possible 3a max charging amps. It means a good handshake for fast charge is occuring even if the source of the charge is incapable of 3a.
Here is a good article explaining it: http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-6p-nexus-5x-quick-charge/
I assume we should soon see actual 5v 3a charging devices come out to market.
I've replied on a different thread. You should use the app Ampere and compare numbers to the stock wall charger.

TurboPower charger that comes with it is the only thing that will give it a fast charge.
I have no idea how or why Quick Charge tech was left out.
Mine does indeed say "TurboPower Connected" and charges super-fast when I use the USB C Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Amp Type-C Dual-Port Wall Charger and the USB C Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Car Charger with Dual AiPower Ports. I can't seem to find it now, but I remember reading somewhere that the Moto Z does use QC 3.0, otherwise I wouldn't have bought the above products. NOTE: I am going USB-C to USB-C.
Does not use 3.0.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z-force/help/moto-z-forces-turbopower-quickcharge-t3429607
In short QC 2.0 and 3.0 don't follow usb c spec according to a top Google engineer. According to Usb c spec the vbus voltage should not exceed 5v. QC tech exceeds this by using 9v and 12v to achieve more power. Motorola built the Moto Z according to spec which allows you to ramp up the current (amps) to achieve more power which is why our stock charger outputs at 5.7amps. You don't need QC to charge fast with Usb c. Usb c with power delivery is actually better . Either way the QC chargers put out 15 watts total. Our turbo charger does 28.5 watts using 5v at 5.7 amps and is actually faster than what's out now. QC chargers use higher voltage to achieve this at 9v 1.7 amps 15 watts, a charger doing 5v 3a does the same 15 watts. So to turbo charge your phone don't use QC chargers unless it also outputs at least 5v at 3a that's the key. Anything less than 3a won't turbo charge. It needs to be a usb C to usb C cable so the charger should have a usb C port not a usb a port like most of you are trying to use. No other charger out now does more than 3amps besides the turbo charger until then use chargers that do 5v 3a. Verizon has a fast charger that supports this and all other fast charging tech.

Will these charge as fast as the stock charger out of the box? And with a USB C cable does it need to support quick charge, or do all USB C cables support quick charge as long as you have it plugged into a USB C quick charge adapter like you linked to?
Nothing charges as fast as the stock charger as far as I know.
I looked around on Amazon to try to find a spare charger with the same speed as the OEM, but there are none as far as I know. QC actually goes against usb-c standard, so whoever has a phone that supports both is technically being shorted on charge speed. I will be waiting for the verified brands (ex. Anker/Aukey) to release a legitimate charger because there have been instances where wall chargers have completely destroyed devices. For the fastest charge, you'll want usb-c cables end to end, but since usb-c is not the standard yet, I would be very careful when buying lesser-known usb-c accessories. Z owners will have to wait for the market to catch up at this point.
Total side note but I wonder if the problems Samsung is having is because of their bastardized quick charge/type setup.
I'm happy we don't have QC.

I bought the Choetech charger from amazon and it works great on my Z Force. no where near the OEM charger but still charges the phone dead to full in a little over an hour and a half. from my limited testing.

Ha! I was thinking the same when I heard about battery fire from the Note 7.
I just bought another oem charger from amazon and called it a day.

The car charger that Verizon sells turbo charges the phone, but not as quickly as the stock home charger. I don't think any charger will charge as fast as the stock home charger, since it's optimized for the phone. But the Verizon USB-C charger charges the phone plenty fast.

I can confirm this. I just got this phone on an upgrade after insisting to the Verizon sales representative that I did NOT want a Galaxy S8, that I was absolutely sure I didn't want the S8, and that I think the Z Force is a much better device than the S8. After seeing the genuine shock on his face that I slighted his phone, I bought the OtterBox case and the Verizon branded USB-C car charger with it.
The car charger definitely charges faster than my non quick charge USB-C cable, but not as fast as the stock charger. The stock charger will take me from ~5% to full in an hour. The Verizon car charger takes about an hour and twenty minutes to go from ~5% to full.
All in all, it was worth the money spent on the charger. It is definitely better than the 8 hour charge my standard USB-C usually takes.
Hi to all,
Can we charge S21U with 40W chargers? They are a lot chargers like Huawei, Xiaomi and etc... with 40W and more.
I believe the answer is yes - or at least probably. Most of those newer chargers are "Smart" in that they only provide the volts and amps that are needed by the device being charged. I may be wrong about that, but I don't think so - I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Pretty sure you can, I use a 45 watt "smart" charger on my NOTE 20 Ultra without any issue.
You can use any charger that supports PD (power delivery), AFC or QC2.0
Any 45 watt USBC charger out there is going to be PD standard so you'll be fine.
The downside is, it'll still only charge at 25 watts.
I am charging my s21U with an 40w charger, works without problem. not using 40 watts of course, but its working.
The phone, all phones in fact, will ONLY charge at it's highest speed the phone allows itself to receive, the charger doesn't matter, it can be lower or higher than what the device is recommended for. A lower power charger will just take longer to charge the phone, a higher power charger will just not charge at it's full power if the phone won't accept the full power from the charger.
I've been using the 90w charger from my HP Spectre X360 my S20 Ultra since I got it without a single issue, I still get about 2 days of use per charge on that thing, and now I've been using the same laptop charger on the S21 Ultra and it works just fine.
The phone fast charges normally, doesn't get super hot, works just fine, and I only need to keep laptop chargers around the house, it's great haha
I have a 45W USB-C PD port as part of an Anker PowerPort and also the 18W charger that came with my Pixel 5. Would I notice much of an improvement in charging speed or integrity/longevity of the battery by purchasing Samsung's 25W charger?

That's the charger I've been using w/ S21Ultra (25W from N10+) and I figured out I won't be needing anything bigger then that. Thanks to Samsung 'super fast charging' the 5Ah battery on s21U charges faster then 3.8mA Pixel 4a5G battery(with the same charger). +/- 1 hour and done!
Hello, anybody knows a third brand wireless charger that works with 15w fast wireless charge? Or the fast charge is propietary of samsung chargers only?...thank you

As far as I know, only the Samsung Fast Wireless Charger 2.0 will give you full 15W wireless charging.
Anything else (even if rated for 15W or above) will supply standard Qi wireless wattage of upto 10W (mostly 7.5 to 9 W)
Got an OMARS white brand 15W wireless charger and it only charges at the 10W level.

Use the type c to type c pd /pps charging .
U can use the samsung official 25w charger or a non branded one 25w and above and u can get good 15w or supported wireless charging with the supported wireless charger
Never mind
I tried with my huawei 15w wireless charger says its charging fast. I use with the 40w power supply of my huawei phone. Only proble is the pad its small and have to align precise because of the camera bump.
Pd. Its any way to know it is the phone is charging at 10w or 15w? Only says fast wireless charging.
My wireless charger has three different LED's for charging, yellow for 5W, green for 10W and blue for 15W, I'd guess if you have no other way to tell, you have to go by the time it takes for it to charge.

Interesting, I used the OnePlus oem fan cooled charge wireless and it would not charge mine. I look at the battery settings and it will tell me if it's fast charging btw. I got a nice Nillkin from Amazon that works

One of those Amazon white brands, an OMARS 15w wireless charger, think I got it still in 2017.
