Hopefully, some of you more seasoned members can help me understand charging variables a bit more beyond just rated wattage. So let's begin.
I live in the U.S so I had to purchase a third-party charging block for the Mi 11 since it came with a European one. I ended up getting two because one I bought for a really good price. They're both 65W "GaN" charging blocks (MI 11 uses 55W charging), using the same power source, the same cable (Xiaomi OEM currently). However, I'm getting different results with both.

MI TURBO CHARGE/Charging Rapidly
Does anyone know why the RavPower one doesn't utilize MI Turbo Charge?
Thanks for any helpful input in advance
"I live in the U.S so I had to purchase a third-party charging block for the Mi 11 since it came with a European one"
you could have just bought this for much cheaper:
Amazon.com : eu us adapter
With the Ravpower, did you try both ports? Because in the marketing sheets on the URL you provided, it says it does support QuickCharge 3.0. Now, Xiaomi's TurboCharge is actually QC from Qualcomm so that is the same.
The only thing I see is that the Ravpower does 18w QC which isn't that much. The other one can go up to 45 and 65w. Mabe the TurboCharge doesn't kick in because 18w isn't enough to actually be...turbo.

That's very true. I actually have a travel adapter that can convert EU to US and vice versa. I just preferred getting a dedicated power block over an adapter in this instance.

Yes and no. I've used the USB Type-C port on the RavPower, as well. It resulted in "Charging Fast" in those instances. However, I think this is due to cable I was using. The cable said it is rated for 60W but I'm skeptical of it as it is a magnetic cable and I haven't tried it with other blocks to confirm it can. Other than that, I don't believe I have any Type C to Type C cables rated that high.
Oh, I feel foolish for not catching the RavPower only putting out 18W on the USB-A. The Setakaa puts out 60W for USB-A so that definitely explains it

No, so many specs. Good you as here, that is what it's for
Also, haven't see 65w magnetic cables yet. But also, I don't think they adhere to the USB-IF specs so I stay away from them. I would suggest a good certified cable, plug it into the USB-C and see what happens
Also, charging with 18w is definitely better for the durability of you battery. Don't turbo charge when not needed. My advice.

The charger above has a slimmer profile on a power strip than the Motorola "fat" pack (pictured below).
rayjr13 said:
That's interesting because from the photo you posted it looks to be just about as wide as the Moto charger across the face with the prongs. On Delta MD-88 particularly the faces hits the bevels and the blades dont go in all the way to make consistent contact.
But truthfully I forgot that I am holding out looking a QC2.0 true "travel" charger that has international tips. that isn't wide as a bus or at least the tips push the bulk away from the blades. Thankfully they have replaced nearly all those deep recessed outlets that were on B767 which I assume you took to Brazil..
So any ones with travel tips?
The other pictures on Amazon of the one you posted definitely show it look smaller profile on the prong face. So I can see it is in the right size range. now to find an international one.

Just telling you it worked for me.
On the way down I used just the charger, as is.
Coming back, I had high quality Brazilian plug adapter still connected to the charger (from using it in Brazil), so I kept that on while charging on the Delta flight back. Didn't see the need to remove the adapter, and possibly lose it.
You can buy one of those and there's your travel tips.

Another nice thing about the charger I found it is it automatically detects voltage and adjusts as needed. 100 volts - 240 volts. All the outlets in the charging stands at the Sao Paulo airport were 220 volts, while residential Sao Paulo uses 127 volts. Before I plugged it into the airport charging stand, I went back to the Amazon description just to make sure I wasn't about to burn up my phone or the charger...
The original Samsung Galaxy S6's is super slim and supports fast charge as well. Tested on my XT1225, and my Moto charger on my friend's S6. They both perform exactly the same.

Yes, they both use the Qualcomm standard Quick Charge 2.0. Motorola just calls it "Turbo Charging", but it's really just Quick Charge 2.0. Any certified Quick Charge 2.0 (or even 3.0) charger will work. Here's a Qualcomm PDF showing a list of 3.0 and 2.0 devices. Both Samsung Galaxy S6 series and Droid Turbo (Quark, so also Moto Maxx and Moto Turbo) are listed as being Quick Charge 2.0. I already knew that from reviews when I bought the phone, but there it is also from Qualcomm who makes the Snapdragon chipsets.
This year a lot of phones are using the newer Quick Charge 3.0. All the new Quick Charge 3.0 chargers are backwards-compatible with 2.0 and 1.0 phones:
Introducing Quick Charge 3.0: next-generation fast charging technology
https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapd...e-30-next-generation-fast-charging-technology
So, no worries about buying a 3.0 charger in the future if happen to buy one. Our phone will still charge at 2.0 speeds, but it won't hurt it to be charged with a 3.0 charger.
In the opposite direction, OnePlus is using proprietary chargers for their OnePlus 3. It is NOT any Qualcomm Quick Charge standard, like 2.0 or 3.0. It's something they made up and you have to use their overpriced chargers with that phone. This was after last year, when their laughable so-called "flagship killer" OnePlus 2 phone didn't have Quick Charge nor NFC. This year, they at least included NFC, but they still don't have REAL Quick Charge -- they have their own "Dash Charge", but you use their own cables and adapter ($35, but now on sale for only $33!).
No thanks.
Just ordered this VERY small QuickCharge 2.0 wall charger for my wife to use at work

The price is GREAT.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010RNBOKE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought a Nexus 5x from the USA, but I live in the UK. I will therefore need to replace the wall charger when it arrives.
For my old Nexus 5 I use an iPad charger. This is fast, and adaptable, since I travel a lot, I can switch the figure of 8 input on the iPad charger to whatever country I am in, and it allows me to carry only one charger and switch between Nexus and iPad charging.
I realise that the old iPad charger will be quite slow to charge my new nexus 5x. I would like a replacement that is at least as dependable as my iPad charger, but with the usb-c standard. The perfect charger would have swappable plugs, like the iPad, with a usb-c AND standard usb 2/3 ports.
Any ideas?
Nobody found an alternative to this yet? Is it at least possible to buy a standard, genuine, nexus 5x charger with a uk plug?
Can't you just use an outlet adapter?

I now have my US plug and a clumsy US->UK adapter. Not the perfect solution:

Well, I had a Moto X 2014 with quick charger and I lost it, so my replacement was the 5X. In order to keep my previous chargers I bought a micro usb -> Usb C adapter. It's works pretty well for both charging and data transfer and isn't that expensive and you can still use your previous charger.
http://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B018AM74KI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00
Remember that the OEM charger has an output of 3.0A so you might use a big charger, like the one of an IPAD or S6.

From what I understand though, the old USB formats are not capable of delivering 3.0A. It has to be USB-C. Adapters will turn your charge to 2.5A maximum.
I might be wrong, but have read a few things that suggest this. With my official Google charger I can charge my Nexus 5x fully in about 30 minutes.

I believe you are right, it might not charge at 3.0 A, but it did a good job with my 2.4A Aukey charger. I didn't measure the charging time, but it's aceptable. I can run some tests if your are still interest.

I'm in the same/similar boat as I've got a nexus 5x with the wrong country's charger-type - With the little adapter-things that just change the plug on the older micro-USB cables, is there a danger of cheap ones such as this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Portable-Mi...333069?hash=item2ca48e09cd:g:LDgAAOSwFGNWSUtf damaging the charger into which it is plugged, or worse yet the actual phone? What would be the cheapest *safe* cable which would charge the nexus 5x off any standard USB A port (ie. older chargers or a computer) (even at slower speed) as I have a lot of older chargers around and like to keep them at a few places so getting one cable is the best way to do this.

I already own an Anker multi port charger, and have just bought the new one which has 1 USB C port and 4 standard USB ports with a total out put of 40W. The USB C port is rated at 3A and charges my 5x quickly. The other ports are 2.4A maximum and I have had no problems charging several devices simultaneously, Its a little smaller than a cigarette packet and has the figure 8 socket for change of power lead when travelling.
Thoroughly recommended

*Disclaimer*.....the S7 does not support Quick Charge 3.0. It only supports 2.0 but I may be picking up the G5 or HTC 10 which does support it.
I needed a new/extra charger so I figured I'd get something that supports the latest Quick Charge technology.
The charger itself feels well made. The prongs fold in for traveling purposes and it doesn't block the outlet/outlets sitting next to it. In regards to noise this charger makes none of it. Those who have used cheap chargers know the humming/buzzing noise I'm referring to. It's extremely annoying.
Now onto the part that really matters. I haven't had the time to compare this charger to the stock Samsung charger in regards to really putting them through the paces but early results look promising for the Anker.
I started the charge process with quick charge enabled at 5% and started a timer for 30 minutes. The stock Samsung charger was able to bring the battery to 43% while the Anker charger brought the battery to 52%.
Within the next few days I will do a test from 5% to 100% both with quick charge enabled and disabled.
On a side note I also picked up a 6 foot kevlar wrapped Anker micro USB cable. It feels well made and the connections are nice. I probably wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't on sale but I needed a new long micro USB cable.
So far I'd have to say that if you need another charger and you want Quick Charge 3.0 for another phone then go ahead and grab one. If you don't really need another charger or don't need Quick Charge 3.0 then I wouldn't waste the money on one unless you really want the slightly faster charging for the S7 Edge.

No, it will charge at the same speed as a QC 2.0 charger since there S7/S7E don't support QC 3.0
That's exactly what I asked, re qc2.0 but thanks for clarification, I wasn't sure if qc3.0 was 'backwards compatible' kind of thing

Wired. I have no use for wireless chargers.
Once you go wireless you don't go back. lol I hate wires. I have four wireless chargers. Three were pretty much free. With T-Mobile Jump (phone junkie) I just sell my fast charging cablez and headphones for a few bucks since I don't need anymore. So why didn't Samsung put 3.0 charging in the S7 Edge?
I guess they designed the phone before quick charge 3.0 was available? Maybe it hurt they're bottom line? I don't know but whatever the reason it was a stupid decision.
The reason I don't like wireless chargers is because the only time I ever charge my phone is either in the car or while laying in bed. In both places I like using the phone while it charges.

No, QC has it as part of the SoC, si its supported technically but Samsung chose not to use it for an unknown reason.
They disabled it in the Snap dragon version because the other phone with their own SOC wouldn't support it so to keep the 2 on parity they disabled ours.
Hey, i'm happy with my N5X battery, but i'm gonna need a power bank for my travels.
So can you recommend me one. Is there any powerbank that has type C USB port??
There still aren't many USB Type C devices out there, your best bet is still probably a power bank with plain old USB type A ports, so you can charge your phone (with a type A -> type C cable) and other things as well. I just got this one because it is integrated with an AC charger, so it's one less thing to carry: http://plugable.com/products/pb-wa5k. It quick-charges the N5X.
Here are a few power banks with a Type-C output of 3A. So it will fast charge your Nexus 5X.

If you ever need to deal with them, (Anker) you won't be disappointed. I thought I had received a bad charger from them (not 100% sure though), and they sent out a replacement as we spoke on the phone no questions asked. Then emailed me a prepaid shipping label to return the old one. Now that's great customer service.
I own the Anker USB C power bank, as well as several others of their accessories. Truly top quality stuff, plus their customer service is exceptional.

Hey I had a quick question about the GMYLE power bank . Is the link that you provided the same thing as the one I found on Amazon but cheaper.I can't link it sorry but you have to search GMYLE on Amazon, it is the 10 dollar one . Also will this one work for the nexus 5x and say "rapidly charging". Thanks
Every power bank which gives at least 2,5 A should allow fast charging.

If not, a 5V 2.4A power bank still does a decent job. My Anker Battery bank does 15% to 80% in one hour. Stock wall charger gets to 90% in the same time.

Hi,
I live in Norway and purcased the Huawei Mate 8 Dual NXT-L29 64Gb 4G LTE Champagne Gold modell.
As expected the charger is not working in Norway.
Anyone can suggest a converter or where to by EU fast charger for this device?

A cheap travel adapter won't do the trick?

I guess it would.
There was also a USB cable, that I can stick in a contact that I already have, but then I would not get the fast charging.
I accept that this might be a trade off for having 4 GB version, but would be nice to have the fast charging option

I have the same type phone you have, and using this converter, which doesn't cost a thing, fast charging works just fine :good:

Found an adapter , works like sharm
If anyone is looking for a replacement/second charger, this item is genuine:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-5V-OR-9V-2A-QC2-0-Fast-USB-WALL-Charger-adapter-for-HUAWEI-honor-7/32669233630.html
I have received it today - it took only 2 weeks for the item to arrive in Poland.
I can confirm that the phone detects it as a quick charger. Regular QC2.0 and QC3.0 chargers do not charge Mate 8 quickly.

hmm they do not?
i just got an aukey qc 3.0 car charger and...yes, it does not charge quickly.
why?
what does the charger (car charger) need to say in order to charge it fast?

found this info :
To experience full charging speed, you have to find chargers that support Huawei's Fast Charging Protocal (FCP). Merely having a charger that can output 9V2A is not enough. Chargers that support FCP will also be compatible with Qualcomm quickcharge, but not necessarily vise versa.
True. It's only.with Huawei

Yes, it works the other way - Mate 8 charger can quickly charge Nexus 6, but neither Aukey QC2.0 nor QC3.0 chargers can do the same.
So, any chargers out there to fast charge the Huawei? Car chargers.

very correct, I have tried Aukey, Anker, and Choetech, they all don't support Huawei's mate 8 charging protocol FCP
I will just order another wall charger that is identical to the original and there are many on Aliexpress
I use my huawei's wall charger to charge the mate and my nexus 6 as well even though the N6 does not recognize the charger as fast unless I switch off the mobile then it start delivering 9v 1.35a to the N6 !!
Here's eBay search for Huawei car charger FCP
