[stextbox id=”alert”]Tip: Quick Charging, Monitoring and Improving the Battery Life on Smartphones[/stextbox]

If you are frustrated by charging your smartphone over and over again or if you are in a rush and do not have all the time in the world to charge your smartphone’s battery then Fast Charging is at your disposal which is only solution you have right now, unless you would like to carry an extra charged battery or best power bank with you.

What is Fast Charging?

Fast Charging also known as Quick Charging or Turbo Charging is a technology developed by Qualcomm for the smartphones powered by Snapdragon processors. As the name indicates fast charging technology charges your phone much faster than a traditional charger.

To use Quick Charging you need to have a phone and a charger both of which support the quick charge technology. When the battery level is fully depleted then quick charge sends a burst of power into the battery. As the battery fills up then the charging is slowed down, in order to protect the integrity of the battery and protect it from damage.

Charging Speed of Battery with Quick Charge

As per Qualcomm quick charge speed test in their labs. A 3300mAh battery1, a Quick Charge 2.0 enabled device went from 0% to 60% charge in 30 minutes, while a device without Quick Charge 2.0 using a conventional (5 volt, 1 amp) charger achieved just a 12% gain in the same 30 minutes. A device with Quick Charge 1.0 managed a 30% charge in that time period.

How Quick Charging Works?

When you connect a traditional charger to your phone, the power flows into your phone from the power outlet. Every phone has a built-in regulator to monitor the power levels and prevent it from pumping in too much power or overcharging which may damage the battery.

When you use a Quick Charge device and a compatible charger then the built-in regulator allows more power into the battery than a traditional charger, which results in charging the battery faster than normal. If you connect a Fast Charger to a device which does not support fast charging then your device will not be charged faster.

Quick Charging Can Be Harmful at Times

With every advantage there comes an added disadvantage. That being said some chargers generate a lot more heat than normal. Although quick charge capable devices are built to be safe but still the heat thus generated is not good for the long term health of the battery of your phone.
