I just pre-ordered my galaxy s6 edge on amazon and i have a couple of questions:
1) Will the "Nexus Wireless Charger" sold by google work with my new S6 or i'll have to buy a new wireless charger???
2) Does the "Car wireless charger" sold by samsung charge slowly compared to "wired charging"??
3) I just checked my local samsung online store and only this car wireless charger (Model number: EP-HN910I) is listed. It also states it's for the galaxy note 4.
What is the difference with the one sold on the us online store (Model number: EP-HN910IBUSTA)??????
4) As for "wired car charger" i found this one by samsung (Model number: ECA-U21CBE).... will this charger charge the galaxy s6 as fast as possible in my car or there's something better??
Thanks in advance

Yes, the Nexus charger uses Qi so that should work with the S6.
2) Does the "Car wireless charger" sold by samsung charge slowly compared to "wired charging"??

Yes, Qi charging is slower than wired. Qi is currently limited to 5W (1A) for phones and as far as I know Samsung arn't doing anything to go higher than this. Samsung's car charger should be similar to your nexus charger. By wire it supports fast charging (~15W), but any decent 10W (2A) charger will be twice as fast as wireless.
Edit: I obviously havent tried this with the S6 and Samsung's charger, but my experience in the past is a good Qi charger will slowly charge a phone while you are using GPS with screen brightness turned up. It is slow though, the charger is barely providing more power than the phone is using.

I don't know the answer to this. I would guess there is no difference.

That is a 2A charger. (10W).
The phone supports faster but I am not sure if there is a suitable car charger yet. There may never be because Samsung's support page says fast charging only works when the screen is off so it is probably pointless in a car.
wireless charging is much slower.. but not only is it slower, it heats up the battery more and puts more wear on the battery as well due to heat and wasted energy involved with wireless charging.
for car charger i would recommend the RavPower, it puts out 2.4A per jack and you can charge 3 deices at the same time and use your own USB cables.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OT7PJ60/
or the Anker, includes 1 cable, but 1 less port
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D82O68Y/
they also sell it for 2 bucks cheaper without the cable... both chargers have great reviews, and both will charge the phone as fast as possible.
Thank you very much for both of your help!!!
You cleared all my doubts!!
I just ordered the anker car charger from amazon!!!
Thanks again.
why not use a qualcomm 2.0 car charger. I do agree about the wireless charging.

The Galaxy S6 doesn't have a qualcomm processor so it shouldn't make a difference right??
Doesn't Samsung use a proprietary solution when it comes to fast charging???

the QUALCOMM chargers (either wall or car) will work with s6 or s6 edge. The fast charging capability is a feature that I really like

it will charge, but unless you have a Qualcomm 2.0 phone any other phone you plug in will just "adapt" to the fastest charge rate in this case will be 5V @ 2.1-2.4A.

did you measure the Amps and Volts? anything above 2A is "fast charge"
in order for it to be the "fast charge" it has to be @ 9 Volts not the typical 5V.
not saying the S6 won't work with Qualcomm, because i don' t have a phone to test the amps, but mostly only phones with Qualcomm chips are the ones that support Qualcomms own "fast charge" mode, and samsung S6 has no Qualcomm. one would think it would be a license patent thing that wouldn't be compataible with just any device..

The new Samsung Wireless Charging Pad being released alongside the Galaxy S6/Edge is actually a 2A charger.

Does it actually output 2A to the phone? The sticker on the back says "Input: 2A", but it is normal for the transmitters to have a higher input than output current. I think they will have just put 2A to match the output rating of the wired charger it goes with. The S5 charger pad also says "Input: 2A" and that was a normal 5W pad.
The Samsung S6 Pad is listed on the WPC page as a "Lower Power Transmitter", which means 5W max. They did recently increase the Qi standard to 15W, but that is only a draft specification (called Medium Power) and they are not listing any products available with it at the moment. (And of course, it would be at least 3A in).
I am not saying it definitely doesnt support fast charging - TI have a transmitter/receiver solution which is 10W but also supports Qi 5W (though that needs 12v in so isn't used here). If they supported something like this though I am sure they would have mentioned it. Plus the need to support PMA on the receiver would have limited their choices of receiver chip. I wouldn't be surprised if they are using TI's solution, which is 5W.

I wondered that as well, though I wasn't able to actually find any hard evidence one way or another. Even the listing for the item on Best Buy doesn't mention it (or at least it didn't last night). Might just have to take the wait-and-see approach with this one. Taken at face value though, the possibility is there. My gut says you're probably right though.
i have a spare motorola turbo charger (qualcomm 2.0 quick charger) that came with my droid turbo. I preordered the s6 edge and was wondering if the turbo charger will work with fast charging of the s6 edge? just want to clarify. thanks

Yeah if fast charging is what you're looking for that's definitely the way to go.
The alternative wireless solution is to simply get a wireless power bank, but of course that still won't charge quickly; though they are less cumbersome.

i have s6 gold edge, it does show "fast charger connected" when connected to a charger with qualcomm 2.0 fast charge.
if it charging at typical 5v, this "fast charger connected" would not shows up.
WHat is a good wireless charger for the Edge phone? I prefer not to alway connect with the cable......
Choetech has a few fast wireless chargers listed on Amazon.
1: Single Coil - Pad-type
2: Single Coil - Circle-type with Smart Lighting
3: 3 Coils - Pad-type with Smart Lighting
I was researching this yesterday. What you have to remember about wireless pads is that typically a 2.0 pad will charge similar to a Non fast Charge 2 plugin-in charger. So like a standard charger. Once 3.0 ones are out I assume it will be a similar scenario. Hopefully some day down the line they will be just as fast as their plugin counterparts.
As far as those links above, 10w max isn't very strong considering a plugin 3.0 is about 18w and even a 2.0 is 15w. So 10 watt seems pretty dinky for a wireless still. Still I guess better than the old 5 watt ones.
Tronsmart is making a fast charging capable qi charger which should be nice. I used to have a TYLT VU (angled qi charger) for my Nexus 6 that as great. I would buy an angled one because it's easier to see your phone on and impossible to not have it charge.

Correct. You can also buy a "QC 2.0 Adaptive Fast Charger" like this.
please use the Samsung original or certified third-party 18W QC 2.0 adapter as its power source.
Already got one on order so maybe will get this too. Keep in mind that still this will NOT charge as fast as a 3.0 18w direct plug. Not sure why that ends up being the case, but that is what I have read.
BUT::: Lower down on the order page it say:
"Fast Charge Model(10W Output Max) ONLY "
So does that mean if you have an 18w source it still only delivers 10w to the phone? Seems hardly worth it. I sent them an inquiry about this. (it's not listed on their website)

I received that charger 3 days ago.
I can not test it on the S7 just yet of course, however I have tested it on other phones and it does charge faster than a standard Qi wireless charger does.
I will post up some information about this charger, and the Cheotech 10w circle fast charger that I have also, as soon as the phones arrive.

if you could do a compare with the plug-in 2.0 charger, that would be great.
Hi guys, I'm new to wireless charging, and I'm a bit confused as to which wireless fast charger I should buy for the S7...is there anything different about the wireless charging on the S7 than the S6, Note 5, etc.? Are there new chargers coming out soon that are somehow better than the ones currently on the market? I'm just wondering which charging pads would give me the fastest charge. If anyone could shed some light on this for me, that'd be helpful
Here is what i got for our Note 5's, my wife and I both have one. They have worked great so far. You need to use your Samsung fast charging adapter with it. For $19.99 I could not be happier.

My Choetech fast wireless charging pad still works great so far. I will recommend Choetech. Very stable and warm slightly. They have many kinds of wireless chargers, which has lots of good feedbacks on Amazon. :good:
Well now that there is a report that the s7 and s7e do not support quick charge 3.0 (sad) I'm not sure what's what.
I have this one: www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charging-Pad-CHOE-Qi-Enabled-Adaptive/dp/B016DAFUGY
Works REALLY well for me, charges a lot faster than the old Nokia DT-900 pads I have scattered around the house. Choetech is sending me their newest model to test, so I'll have a writeup for it here soon. Maybe a week or so?

That looks like a good one. I have a pad already, If I use one of the new power supplies will the charge fast, or need to upgrade the pad????
You'll need to use a Quickcharge 2.0 plug, to have it fast charge. It's not going to go any faster if you use a QC 3.0 unit though.
This is what I have now
Hello everyone, I want to know, what is the fastest charger for the S21 Ultra? And what is time to charge from 0% to 100%

Top charging capacity is 25W I believe. I use samsung's 25W charger and it works fine, I dont think anyone has dropped to zero, lowest I have gone is 25% and it's like 65 minutes

Car chargers are not known for providing great charging speeds, so the phone will most likely charge slower (as in REALLY SLOW). Unles you find a car charger with some power.
just do a search on Amazon 45w pps car charger or 25w pps car charger, you found plenty.
make sure it said that it supports PPS
I got this car charger, it did trigger "super fast charging" on my S20, I haven't tried it yet on the S21. But it claims to be PPS, so no reason to believe it won't work on the S21 as well.

Go with the stock Samsung 25w brick and cable.
Just got a set for $20.
The 45 watt will increase the likelihood of Li plating and not charge much faster.
Avoid cold charging!!!
Best start temp for charging is 85°F at start.
Fast charging will not engage and/or disengages somewhere below 60F or above 99F.
Best charging temp is 85-95F.

I did notice this but was skeptical on the 65W PD. Not sure if the S21U can handle 65W...45W is possible because that's where the stock Samsung charger lands when super fast charging.

S21U doesn't allow 45W charging either, no matter which charger you use. USB PD uses a two way handshake protocol, and the charger will only supply whatever the phone allows depending on temperature, charge level etc. You can use any wattage PD certified charger safely. If you're planning to charge your MacBook, 65W would be good for a decent charge rate. 25W or 45W wouldn't be ideal for a laptop. The 65W charger will be good for charging any PD certified device, at least according to my understanding of USB PD.

Oh, my bad..I think the max S21U supports is 25W. The funny thing is that when I charge using my battery bank the phone says Fast charging. When on stock charger, it's just charging! Don't understand why..but I guess the stock charger just plays it safe to protect the phone's battery. I guess this charger shared earlier wouldn't harm the phone's battery...

When you say stock charger, which one do you mean? Coz the phone doesn't come with one. Did you buy a charger from Samsung separately?
I have the 15W Samsung charger which came with my Galaxy Tab S7 (USB A to C cable) as well as the USB PD 25W charger from Samsung (this one uses a USB C to C cable). Both support Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging protocol and the latter supports PD. With the first one, i get fast charging displayed while charging, while with the latter, it shows super fast charging. I've kept both options enabled in settings. Not sure why your charger isnt fast charging your phone. Can you share exactly which charger and cable you're using?

When you say stock charger, which one do you mean? Coz the phone doesn't come with one. Did you buy a charger from Samsung separately?

I have the original samsung charger that I got as an offer when I got the phone. I have the fast charging option enabled and not the super fast option in the phone. Super fast charging does work but not fast charging!

That's what I'm asking. Which charger? The 15W one or the 25W one? I'm not sure which one you got on offer.

I have this one as well and I can say that it can charge my S21U and my hp spectre x360 without issues; excellent build quality as well.

I checked with my charger too. With super fast charging turned off, even my phone displays only charging. With it turned on, display shows super fast charging. It seems the stock charget doesn't display fast charging. Either charging or super fast charging only. Intended behaviour? Bug? Dunno.
