I was looking for a official car rapid charger for my Note 4, you know one that would use it's rapid charging tech and charge it at 9V 2A. But I could never find one. Finally someone has released one that works well, it's got two ports. One normal 2.5A and the other supports quick and rapid charging.
Never heard of them before, Tronsmart. But it's the Quick Charge 2.0 car charger I got it from geekbuying.com here
I also recorded a quick hands on and demo of the charger for anyone that's interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27IDImCll1Y
It defiantly works at full rapid charging spec, I went from 50% to almost 100% in around 20 minutes or so driving into town. It wasn't hot either from that charge. All and all seems the car charger Samsung should have released for the S6 and Note 4.
I've got the Aukey branded version. It looks exactly the same as yours.
Agreed, it's a great product.

Looks like the Note 4 comes with a 2A charger. I imagine this is all we would need in a car charger to support the quick charging?
Nope. The charger has some type of 9 volt mode to facilitate the quick charge, apparently.

You'd need a special Samsung charger. The one that comes with the Note 4 has dual modes. It will charge at 9V 1.67A up to 50%~ and then switch over to the regular 5V 2A.

So, has anyone tried the ones not listed by Samsung or Qualcomm? Amazon has both Anker and Verizon for about $10 or $12 that are 2 or 2.1 amp. I know they probably don't do what the officially compatible ones do but they'd be better than the old Sprint thing I have been using for 5 years, right? It's probably 1 amp or less. I need a new charger but not necessarily fully-compatible until they get cheap like this stuff I am seeing.
If you want the fast charging in your car you need to buy one that is Quick Charge 2.0 capable.
I tried 10W car charger from Samsung and it charged from about 60 % 1% every minute up to 75 % while testing it. But it isn´t really fast charging technology or?

Where did you get this information re 50%?
When mine passes 50% it continues to quick charge according to the battery stats I have obtained on my device.
I imported a number of the Incipio car chargers to the UK. They are excellent but not cheap!
If you have a Nexus 6, Moto X, Galaxy Note 4, or any other Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 compliant phone or tablet, you need a high output “Super Charger” like this one to get the full charging speed that those devices are capable of. On my new Nexus 6, this charger took me from 30% to 92% in 30 minutes of charging!
Pros:
+ Fast and powerful.
+ It runs silently.
+ Good quality build, including a nice quality cable and plug.
+ Quick Charge 2.0 compatible.
Cons:
- Bulkier and heavier than most chargers.
- The LED light is much brighter than it needs to be.
- The prongs don’t collapse, so they are at risk of getting bent in your laptop case or bag.
This Onite 3.0A is well made and very powerful. I strongly recommend you get this or another 3A charger like this if you have a Quick Charge 2.0 compatible phone or tablet. I received mine for free, to review, but am very happy with it.

Am I missing something. I'm not using the "quick charger" that came with the Note 4, but shouldn't chargers ALWAYS run silently?
Thats not a quick charge 2.0 charger, the quick charge chargers use 9v's to charge instead of 5v's

Spammer. He doesn't even know the technology enough to be a reviewer.
note 4 charger(quick charger) is 9v,1.67A instead of 5V
note 4 quick charger is 9v, 1.67A. Though 5V 2.0A is also OK, while no quick.
Considering 5V 3A, maybe it is faster than 2A. But the IC will prevent from higher current.
I actually ordered and tested this charger. It seems as fast as my other 2 Amp chargers. All of the reviews of this charger on Amazon are from other people who've been given samples from the seller. Don't waste your money on this charger.
I'd never buy anything from Onite. Spam threads from them, like this one, seem to pop up quite often.
Any suggestions? I'm looking for something that can do the quick charging in the car, is that even possible? Can it be done with a dual port so my wife and I can use the quick charger at the same time?
http://www.amazon.com/Charger-PowerIQ-Technology-Samsung-Motorola/dp/B00M43S18Y/ - Would this one support quick charging in the car?

This is basically the same cable that came with my S6 just longer correct? The included cable is too short to plug in near my night stand.
Any charger that is a 2amp charger... and any cable.. i have tried all my old cables on the s6 charger... all allow fast charge... and its charger is 2amp.... same as nexus 7 and all other newer devices... so just go with a 2 amp charger and enjoy the fast charge. And yes they make dual port 2 amp chargers... usually 1 port is 2 amp and second one is like 1 or 1.4amp... i have 2 cheap ones from amazon myself... will test them with the phone tomorrow and update you.

any cable will work, but not every 2.0A charger will work. i tested it with a 2.0A (not the Samsung one) charger and "fast charging" did not show up in the phone.
AFAIK, you have to use one of Samsung's OEM chargers or one capable of the Quick Charge 2.0 standard for adaptive fast charging.
OP, i only did a cursory search, but i found this dual Quick Charge 2.0 charger that might meet your needs: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TGD79X8?psc=1
Interesting, I didn't think to check for QC 2.0. I was thinking the Anker one did that. Thanks!
That being said though, anyone have experience with any of them with how they hold up?
Verizon sells one, it is their generic branding, it's the only one that I have seen or tried that is marketed that it is QC 2.0, works great even has a built in LED flash light basically. Sucks that it is $34.99 though.

From my understanding Quick Charge 2.0 is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 (or newer) processor feature. The Galaxy S6 is running Samsung's Exynos 7420 processor which features Adaptive Fast Charging. I don't know how they vary in terms of performance, but I do know that when I plug in my Quick Charge 2.0, my S6 recognizes it as a fast charger. Battery went from 40% to 63% in 13 mins so I'm assuming both charging standards are compatible lol..
Try this car charger, worked great for my Qualcomm based phones.

i'm reasonably sure it's the same standard. the Note 4 (Snapdragon 805) is listed on Qualcolm's website as compatible with QC 2.0. however, if you look at Samsung's website, it only lists Adaptive Fast Charging. Samsung just rebranded QC 2.0 as their own Adaptive Fast Charging. you can use all devices interchangeably.
also, the OP wanted a dual port QC 2.0 charger. that one only has 1 port w/ QC 2.0
I have already Anker 2 amp car charger in hand and i was thinking it wont be fast enough , i have seen video where quaclom demonstrated that Quick charging is faster than 2 amps charging , and judging by the fact that Samsung is providing comparable charging time with stock charger i was thinking that it is more than 5V 2.0 Amps .. too bad i am waiting for my phone to arrive.

Anyone know of a portable battery that fast charges (real fast charging)?
I know of these:
http://www.aukey.com/product/pb-t1-fast-charge-battery-charger (I read that the s6 supports qualcomm 2.0)
http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/get-through-qualcomm-quick-charger-2_60195548667.html (not really commercially available)
I also would be interested in a powerbank that is compatible with fast charging the S6 / S6 Edge.
And I too came across the Aukey powerbank.
But I didn't find the information if the S6 is compatible with Quick Charge 2.0, as this was developed by Qualcomm.

I purchased both wall and car chargers that were Qualcomm 2.0 quick charge technology compatible and both utilize the quick charge capabilities of the S6 flawlessly.

I purchased the Aukey one you linked over the weekend and should be getting it today. I'll let you know how it is but it advertises that its quick charge 2.0 capable so we'll see.
The Aukey isn't in stock anymore on Amazon. I would have bought it. Thanks, please let us know.
Hey,dear,,,,,,,you are right..choose a good charger is very important.
I bought the Aukey. I only tried it once so far, but it works exactly as advertised. It shows up on the phone as a fast charger. It is a bit heavier than I would like, but I won't be carrying it everywhere, so.
Even with the same cable, recharging the Aukey took a lot longer than charging the phone. I don't know if that's weird or too be expected.

Well the Aukey is 10000mah and the phone is like 1/5 of that so it should take longer to charge.

The Aukey is getting charged with maximum 2 Amps on 5V if it the advertising is correct ,, personally i think it is 1.0A on 5V and your phone got charged with quick charge which is faster , also if you take efficiency into consideration , if the Aukey where to deliver 2000 mah to your phone then it will consume at least 2500 mah to do that .
Aukey will be available April 20. I put my order in on amazon.
BTW, you can fast charge the Aukey if you're getting slow charge times.
Have you seen this one?
http://www.ipoweradd.com/poweradd-pilot-s-12000mah-battery-charger-for-samsung-s5-s4_p1270.html
It looks a good option
Just got this bad boy, so far so good, two charging ports, 1 @ 2.1Amps, the other at 1am. The 2.1Amp side charges pretty fast. Not the cheapest but looks like good quality
Comes with a cool case too
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CKGAE94/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
So the Aukey arrived and yes it does fast charge (says so in the pull down).
It's a little heavy and the plastic finish on both sides is slightly scratched (only noticeable) under light, but it seems to be the product to get right now.
Amazon link to Aukey fast charger
Here is the link to Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Aukey-10000mAh-Portable-External-Supported/dp/B00UBDI7EC
is there any word on release date of the official samsung battery back ?
the actual samsung branded one.
The Aukey is a rip off of the Unu battery chargers. The Unu can fast charge for certain. I've had it for months now and love it.

Fast charge as in qualcomm 2.0?
Hi
The S6 comes with what they call an adaptive fast charger. Because I am not too happy with the battery life on my S6, I am looking for an adaptive fast charger in an external battery pack. There are lots of portable chargers on Amazon and a lot of them say fast charging but I am not sure whether that is the same thing or they just say fast charging because they are around 2A. Is there something similar to what the phone comes with available in an external battery pack charger?
TIA
I've only seen 2 batteries that support the Samsung fast charge. Officially it needs to be Qualcomm quick charge 2.0 compatible. There is one from incipio that is $80 or so and one from Aukey for $30. The Aukey is out of stock right now on Amazon and I'm waiting to get one as well.
Also if you are looking for a multiport charger or cigarette lighter adapter Choetech make some that work really well and are QC 2.0.

Thanks. I'll take a look at the two you mention.
I also looker before at the Choetech cut I was rather put off by at least three people claiming it caused a fire!
For my car charger, I use my 2015 KIA Sedona's charger adapter that came with the purchase, and it charges just as fast as the charger that came with the S6.
However, the adapter does get a little hot, but not bad. Really surprised at how fast it does charge.
