I Thought All Chargers Were the Same—Then I Learned These 6 Crucial Differences
1 min read
Summary
There are several key differences in chargers that effect the speed at which they charge devices
Not all chargers deliver the same power output, and the higher the wattage the quicker the charge
The second factor is the amps, which indicate the amount of current flowing and this affects how much charge is passed to the device
Fast charging is not universal as different brands use different fast-charging technologies, so the same charger may charge one device fast and another slowly
Charger cable quality is extremely important as good quality cables allow more current to pass and do not obstruct the flow of charge
Wireless charging is also not as universal as wired charging and is slower and less efficient
GaN chargers are the most efficient and future proof type of charger and are thus recommended for use going forward
