I was wanting to get a set of a few quick charge 2.0 car chargers and wondered if anyone thinks this is a legit qualcomm 2.0 branding or a junk knockoff?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Quick-Charg...tDomain_0&var=&hash=item4639445d2f&rmvSB=true
$10.99 shipped
I have 3 cars I'd like to get a charger for (mine, wives, work car), so just wondered your opinions. Don't want to get it if I have to worry about it frying my phone. I most likely will get a puregear or tenergy, but wanted an opinion if I were to get this for a spare for my wives car.
I found their official site here: http://www.golzer.io/index.php/prod...arger-qualcomm-2-0-adaptive-quick-charge.html
You're better off buying one that certified. You'll spend a little more but you'll get peace of mind.
Yea. Its hard to know if its a deal or a knockoff just using the qualcomm 2.0 branding.

I've kept up with all the research and debate on the best charger/cable combinations for the galaxy note 3 and i'm happy with the charging results from the charger that comes with the note 3, but I need an additional charger. The best I can gather from others is that some are able to use their tablet chargers as well as some miscellaneous other chargers with mixed results to get the faster charging. I've also noticed that almost every non-OEM "fast charger" sold is marketed and designed for the ipod/ipad/iphone, which decreases the power for non-Apple devices.
Does anybody have a direct link or a suggestion for an affordable stand-alone charger that I can purchase for the Note 3? The OEM charger runs $25+ on sale and i'm hoping to find something less expensive.

Your best bet is just to shop around on Amazon, as there are tons of viable options available there that will leave you more than satisfied with your purchase. I would sit here and type out answers to all your question(s), but this has been covered before. Actually, I participated in a thread very similar to this one and since it's nearing 3:00am and I'm exhausted, I'll just point you in that direction instead. :good: Anyway, here's the link to the thread from last month, and here is MY post in that thread based on products that I purchased and am still using on a daily basis.
To sum it all up in a quick "Cliff Notes" form, I bought the AmazonBasics 2.1 amp charger from Amazon and it performs exactly the same as the OEM Samsung wall charger, except it's only a fraction of the cost of the OEM Samsung. You can pick one of the AmazonBasics 2.1 amp chargers for $8.99 here ------> AmazonBasics Wall Charger with USB Outlet (2.1 Amp Output) I hope this helps you a little bit in finding what ya need! :good::good:
Looking for one too.
I have the Hong Kong model and it comes with the UK plug.
Big, ugly and don't need/want it if I am not in UK.
It is removeable (the UK part) so there should be a EU, USA etc pins that will fit it but don't know where.

I'll try this out. I read the thread you reference, but then somebody posted a review on amazon that said they still ended up with slow charging on the Amazon Basic unit, so I got cold feet. I'll just give it a go. Thanks.

Yeah, as inexpensive as the AmazonBasics charger I referenced for you is, you should just try it out for yourself. As many people that have bought this charger and have had a great experience with it, in my opinion it's well worth at least trying it for yourself. If for some crazy reason you happen to get a "lemon," you're only out less than $10, so not too big of a deal really. I highly doubt that's gonna happen though lol. I use mine every single day. I actually split time between the OEM charger and the AmazonBasics 2.1amp charger, as I have two chargers(1 OEM and 1 AmazonBasics 2.1amp) at home and another charger(At work I use a second AmazonBasics 2.1amp charger that I purchased from Amazon after seeing how well the first one I bought compared to the OEM Samsung charger that came with the phone.) at work. :good:

Just an update... I bought the Amazon Basics charger from your link and it works great. Thanks for the heads up.
i am very pleased with my motorola turbo charger that accompany my nexus 6 and i would like a second one (european edition). Where can i find one? (i have searched everywhere i can!!) Any help is appreciated
I'm not sure about European ones but I would check amazon.co.uk or which ever countries amazon you are in. I have 4 Qualcomm quick charge 2.0 chargers (2 Motorola, 1 incipio and 1 power partners) they all work the same so brand doesn't matter as long as it's quick charge 2.0 certified. I would recommend not buying the Motorola version because its expensive compared to other brand and its rather large in comparison. One of my chargers supports the higher voltage (20v quick charge) but no device so far can take advantage of it just yet. I would just search for quick charge 2.0 and see what pops up unless you are dead set on the Motorola one. Below is a picture of the Motorola vs the Power Partners one.
Couple of weeks ago I've bought Aukey turbo charger on Amazon.de.
Seems to work just fine, but comes without micro usb cable, so make sure to
have proper one (for turbo charging) or buy one.
There seems to be a few new options slowly coming onto amazon.
Anker makes a single port charger for like 20 bucks.
Personally I am waiting for someone like anker to make a multi-port charger that supports QC 2.0 across the 4 to 6 charging ports.
Basically this with upgraded internals.

There should be a plethora of quick charge 2.0 compatible chargers since Qualcomm isn't charging a licensing fee to use the technology. Give it time and there will be more. I know in the US there are 30+ different QC 2.0 chargers on Amazon so the other country specific ones should follow suit.
Can anyone tell me if the Samsung Adaptive Fast charger will work as well as a licensed charger? I only want to know because I like the fact that it is all white and a few Amazon reviews point out that some of the aftermarket versions burned out the charger port or phone. I know that the adaptive charger will be faster than others, but will it be as fast as the stock Moto charger?

Its a QC 2.0 charger assuming your talking about the one that comes with the Note 4. It's even on Qualcomms website if you look for it under quick charge form what I remember. It should work just fine, do you have a link to the Amazon page? Its odd how people claim it burned out their outlets but things happen.

Sure: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B00QTJZ3D0/ref=mw_dp_cr?qid=1425351571&sr=8-6
3 on that page. I think there was one on aukey that a person had updated but I can't find it now. I specifically remember it because they had rated a 5 and came back to update it.
I've looked everywhere on the quick charge page. I don't see the note 4 charger on there. They always run half off coupons, so it would be cheap when back in stock, plus it's not a knockoff if you but straight from Sammy. It's weird because it maxes at 2 or 5v I think instead of 9v like the others. (My numbers may be off on voltage but Sammy's is lower than Motorola)
If not, maybe Motorola will run an accessories sale sometime this decade.

I have no issues with the other QC 2.0 chargers that I run. I read those reviews and I personally wouldn't trust that company given the number if people with complaints until they fix what's causing the issues. I have 2 Motorola QC's a Power Partners one and finally a Incipio QC car charger. I haven't had any issues with any of them and the Power Partners one is rated at a max of 30W. I haven't seen my Nexus 6 go beyond 9V personally so the 20V and 12V that it offers won't really matter until devices support that. I would go with one that people have tried without issues to play it safe. If you own a Samsung phone they do give half off when you register it on their site if I remember correctly. Its been a while since I've owned any Samsung phone besides my wife's S5 which we got rid of a while ago. I use my car quick charge daily and I haven't had any issues at all. I stopped caring about seeing how much battery I could squeeze out of my phone and instead I bleed it dry so to speak then quick charge it when it drops below 50%. I carry my spare Moto charger in my backpack and it works fine (I got it for free using a $50 gift card to Motos site) otherwise I wouldn't psy $35 for another one.

I think I read somewhere that they don't even go up to 6, but I could be wrong. Thanks for the insight. I might get a certified, but I would still like to know if the Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger will work the same as the Motorola Turbo Charger for the Nexus 6.

Voltages go in steps usually 5,9,12,20V for phone chargers but the actual charging voltage may vary. If I I recall correctly it does charge at 9V but only in certain situations.
Multi-Port charger w/ QC 2.0 capability
http://www.amazon.com/CHOETECH-Adap...+Qualcomm+Technology+for+Motorola+Droid+Turbo
Looks like there is one now. Only 2 of the ports have QC 2.0.
Are any of these on the market? I can't find them for the life of me.
Same here. Been checking amazon every other day, can't find squat for QC 4. Remember the 4+ is the safety features on the phone, don't believe there will be "4+ chargers".
I can only find QC3 in chargers or battery banks.
I did find Razer chargers for 25$ on amazon... Which is decent, I was afraid they might charge like 40 bucks.
Only one I have found is the one razer sells for 39.99
Sent from my Phone using Tapatalk
Yeah I was looking for Ravpower/Anker/Aukey ones however they dont have anything QC4+ yet. Not that i bought the power bank for the phone as ive yet to go low enough on the battery during a working day where i have had to plug the phone in for a charge. 45mins or podcast/music 30mins lunch of netflix and 45mins at the end of the day for podcasts/music and sending the odd email or message during the day battery hasnt took a hit for needing anything to carry around.
Question
I would need a 2nd charger to keep in my bag and it raises the question of does QC4+ require a certain USB cable or will any longer USBC work fine as i was going to use the supplied one for out and about as its 1m and buy a larger Nation Union one like 10m for my room but didnt want to stress a cable or blow the phone or charger.
I found this link however most brands have only QC3 - https://www.ravpower.com/qc.html
00178273 Hama "Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 4+" Charger, maybe this one is Q.C. 4 charger but for selected country
As far as I know Razer Phone 2 is the only phone that ships with a QC 4.0 charger and it probably is the only one available right now. It is available for $24.99 in the US at Razer.
Found one at Amazon.com for $15.99. Though, it isn't of any reputed brand, the reviews are good. Also it ships to India for around $29.
I could find a QC 4.0 car charger on AliExpress with both USB A and C ports. Not sure how genuine their claim is. Price $7.33.
Apart from that there are makers of QC 4.0 chargers but they don't specify how to buy them.
1. Portway Technologies
2. Everwin
Note: I have noticed that these chargers require a USB Type C to Type C cable.
I really didn't know what I was getting myself into with the usb-c standard when I pre-ordered my S9.
I'm fairly comfortable buying a wall charger based on reading, but the car charger has REALLY thrown me for a loop.
The reviews by Nate and Benson are getting a bit long in the tooth and even some of their "sucks less" items are becoming harder to find. Basically, I'm not looking for something fancy, just reliable and safe. Currently I have a Tronsmart in my car for my S7. I'd be happy if I could find something that is "safe" with usb-a connections and not necessarily a fast charge.
This has mixed reviews:

Tempted to go old school and stick with Samsung:

Any input would be appreciated.
I would just get a qc3. 0 charger on Amazon. Aukey has a dual port one that I have.

I have Aukey's QC3.0 single port car charger, and it doesn't fast charge my S9 for some reason. Wasn't a problem with my S7. I've also tried an assortment of USB-C cables (included the one that came with the S9) to no avail. They are sending me a new one to see if that will fix the problem.
after some reading, this is what I settled on.

I ended up buying this too, happy with it. Keeps me topped up whilst using Waze on long drives.
Good morning!
I am looking to buy an additional qc 4.0 charger for my phone. The stock razer one is 24w, but a lot of the ones I am seeing on the web are 30w.
Will the additional 6w cause a problem for the phone in the long run? I would rather buy the razer one for the extra bucks than create a battery issue or some other kind of problem.
Thank you for your input!

Not even joking, I've been using a 45w charger at work for 2 months now with 0 issues. Always kept a mini fan on it so it doesn't heat up at all as well to be safe.
But I use the device from the attached image to monitor the current flowing.
Ur 45w is a qc4?
I'm also reading that we can use pd chargers as well? I don't mind ordering another one from razer, but was hoping to be able to buy one locally if possible. I also want to know if it's safe to borrow one etc.
Good tip on the meter, I've been meaning to buy one anyway.
Any others?
The hammer has a 28w adapter. If you buy it (the one called Luo Yonghao's cell phone, um, hammer)（Google Translate is very straightforward）
