Samsung Fast Wireless Charger Convertible Version 3rd Party QC Wall Charger Support? - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

So I just got Samsung's new convertible style fast wireless charger for my S8+. The design is clever and it looks and works great, but I noticed Fast Charging is only supported as long as you are using the original Samsung charging adapter(wall adapter) that came in the box. I have tried using QC 3.0 certified chargers from Aukey, BlitzWolf, Anker etc. but the charger only charges the phone with standard Qi speed.
This was not the case with older Samsung wireless fast charger that came out last year, Any ideas guys?

[Q] AC + Car Charger (Quick-Charge 2.0)

Hi,
I'm in the market for dual home and car chargers.
I never knew about QuickCharge 2.0 that my Note 4 and my wife A500F is capable of, but now I see that.
I can't find any "dual" charger from known firm (Lots of at AliExpress). Is it just unavailable ?
Is there really a big difference between QC2.0 capable charger and 2.5A charger ? (saw Anker 2.4AX2 or iOttie 2.5Ax2).
Thanks!
I haven't seen a Qualcomm 2.0 Quick Charge charger that is both AC and a car charger. Getwow has both an AC wall charger and a car charger. Check Amazon. I have the Getwow AC wall charger and it works well with my Note 4.
thanks.
I'm not looking for dual as for both car/ac.
I mean dual USB port. one for home and one for car.
how important is the Quick Charge 2.0 ?
my opinion, quick charge is critical. it really works especially when your device has been drained. I doubt i would ever get another device without it. It is more important to me than wireless charge which is a convenience

[Q] Fast charger

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.

Fast wireless car charger?

Hello everyone...
Im looking for a fast wireless car charger.
Iottie has one but its not fast.
Is there evan a fast wireless charger (not for car)? I got one for free with the edge plus, but it charges very slowly...
I think that charging your device with a wireless charger at home is stupid. I dont see the point. In the car you can use it while it charges and if there is a fast one for a car it can be awsome!
If i'll buy the wireless ottie one, and plug it to a fast charger will it charge faster?
No there isn't a fast wireless car charger yet. Currently there is only the Samsung and Choetech fast wireless chargers out there, not even a 3rd company that makes it.
If you buy the iottie or any other wireless car charger, it would only charge at its slower rate. Give it a few more months and you might see one available, no guarantee.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you just take something like this and plug it into your Choetech or Samsung wireless fast charging base?
I have one of those Aukey Quick Chargers from Amazon and when I connect it, it says fast charging. Seems to charge fast as well.

I use the Anker Power Drive +1 along with an Anker Power line 3 ft. Seems to charge as fast as when plugged in ,both can be found on Amazon , and if it doesn't deliver just return it but from my experience that won't be necessary........:good:
Is there something new?
*Fast* wireless car charger?

Does LG V10 support fast Qi wireless charging?

Now that the aftermarket Qi stickers for the LG V10 have hit the virtual store shelves, (I ordered mine but have not yet received it), I was wondering:
Does the LG V10 support fast wireless Qi charging or is that something that is particular to the Samsung S6 and Note 5?
I was persuaded that the Qi chargers from Choetech offer the best value for the money. There are two particular models in which I am interested.
Standard
CHOETECH Mini Qi Wireless Charger for all Qi-Enabled Devices (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013AB63YW/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_RJDtwbSV0HENH
Fast
Fast Wireless Charger-CHOE Circle QI Fast Charge Wireless Charger Charging Pad (with Smart Lighting Sensor)for Samsung Galaxy Note 5, S6 Edge+ and All Qi-Enabled Devices https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015351VC2/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_QNDtwbE1343CE
In the description it states:
Two modes for wireless charging: Fast Charge Mode(10W Output Max) for your Galaxy Note 5 and S6 Edge+, Standard Charge Mode(Output 5W Max) for your standard QI enabled device.
The extra cost of the fast charger is certainly, but only worth it if the phone supports it. So my question is, do only the newest Samsung phones support fast Qi charging, or does the LG V10 support fast Qi charging as well (only that this charger came out before the LG V10 is the reason it's not mentioned)?
This is the official LG wireless charging back. It does not mention Fast Qi charging, so I'm inclined to say it does not at this time.

The CPR-120 does not work with choetech FAST CHARGE pad, I have tried it, did not worked.
No, it does not.
I ordered 2 of those (leather version) from China, it's RMB$55 each, that is around USD$8 each

Wall Adapter Questions

I just switched from a galaxy s4 to an LG V10 about one week ago. I forgot how fast phones could be within those 2 and a half years haha. When I first got my GS4, I remember scanning through forums because I was new to android and came across an article stating that you should be careful about using certain amperage adapters for certain phones. I notice the wall adapter from samsung is 2.0A while the LG wall adapter for the V10 is 1.8A How bad would it be if I used my samsung charger to charge the V10. Would this also restrict the quickcharge feature that comes along with the LG charger? Wouldn't the samsung charger also have quickcharge since it's at a higher amperage than the LG charger? Lastly, does it depend on the usb cable whether or not you receive quickcharging? I've been looking around amazon for a decent wall adapter and usb cable and I'm interested in these products.

How would the speed of the charge compare from the car charger to the wall charger?
I always thought the device dictates the charge/juice pulled from the wall charger...
