Gizchina News of the week
In contrast, the Realme 150W flash charge is far faster than Apple and Google, making it the king of fast charge. At present, the details of Realme 150W fast charging have not been officially disclosed. It is speculated that it uses a parallel charge pump scheme with higher conversion efficiency, which can avoid the overload and overheating of the charge pump caused by high current.
Chinese manufacturers barely use less than 50W fast charging for their mid-range smartphones. Unfortunately, brands like Apple, Samsung, and Google never go above 45W. Samsung has had some unpleasant experiences with charging and batteries, thus the company is very cautious.
Apple ‘s iPhone has not made obvious progress in fast charging in recent years. The latest iPhone 13 series only supports 29W fast charging. In addition, Samsung flagships in recent years only support 45W fast charging.
Realme 160W charging head
The Realme smartphone that will support a 150W super flash charge will also support a 160W charging head. Fast charging speed has now become one of the Android camp’s competitive projects, and the power is constantly improving. Xiaomi, iQOO, and other brands have models that can charge a 4500 mAh battery in 15 minutes. In addition, the upcoming Red Magic 7 Pro supports 135W super flash charging with a 165W gallium nitride charger. It can fully charge a 5000 mAh battery in 15 minutes. It is believed that in a few years, Android will usher in 200W± fast charging technology, and it is estimated that it will only take a few minutes to fully charge the battery of the mobile phone.
