Currently I am using both N6P and M8.
N6P supports 5V/3A but no QC2, and M8 supports QC2.
I don't want to carry 2 chargers all the time, so I did little bit search and found this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0122P71FC?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
It seems to be a good one, with 5V 3A, 9V 1.67A, 12V 1.2A, so now I guess I can use it with Zaptip.
Anything similar to that?

I have charger along with a USB-A to C cable. My 6P doesn't register as quick charging when using it.

On 5V 3A?
If that's what it's actually outputting then the nexus doesn't see it that way. I suppose it may be my cables. I don't have a USB-C to A adapter to try the C to C cable that came with the phone.
FYI I have this charger and it registers as fast charging with my Nexus 6p:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HPTU00E
Can't say for sure if it charges exactly the same power/speed as the stock charger, but did notice it was definitely charging very fast..
It's the $10.99 20W black version.

Says 5V 2.4A for each port. So I guess it would be slower than the stock one.

Possibly but it did say rapid charging and it did charge plenty fast to me.
Honestly the stock charger doesn't seem very fast to me

When I plugged in my 6P's 5V/3A charger at 19% it said it would take 1 hour to charge. When I tried my iPad brick(5.2V/2.4A) and a USB C to USB A I got from amazon and it said it would take 1 hour to charge from 18%. Both said charging rapidly. It seems as long as the wall adapter puts out 5V and 2A or more it should charge rapidly, regardless of the wall adapter being USB A or C.
This charger situation is a nightmare. But....
I bought one of these awhile ago for $12 on sale, and I didn't expect for it to quick charge the Nexus 6p, but it does seem to register as quick charging.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...harge aukey&qid=1446247138&ref_=sr_1_7&sr=8-7
The charger listed in the first post will register as quick charging when using a USB 3.1 certified A to C cable.

There is other colours available on that link for more reasonable prices.
But it doesn't look like it's got a type C port. So you're better off looking for a different charger because you'd have to use an A to C cable and won't get the rapid charging.
There's already a thread for car chargers here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/accessories/car-charger-nexus-6p-t3214316
IIRC Tronsmart make a good one, but check that thread for more info.

I was on my phone so it didn't immediately popup with other options. The charger seems expensive, and lacks a Type-C port as you mentioned. There are nice Type-C chargers out there for a lot less which allow for rapid charging. I have 2 car chargers that will output 5V/3A which combine still cost less than one of those chargers.
I'll chime in and recommend the Blitzwolf USB C car charger. Does rapid charging just fine and its USB C hardwire. Great build quality too. Aluminum finishings and all

I have a Tronsmart 33W Type-A/Type-C car charger. There is a review I wrote on it linked in my siganture. I also have a JOTO 5V/3A fixed Type-C cable car charger that also has a Type-A port.
Has someone gathered some experience with Mi5 compatible chargers supporting Quick Charge 3.0?
The original chinese charger that came with the 128GB Mi5 version actually has a QC 3 symbol on the back - while I read it supports just 2.0.
My 'dream' charger should have easy switchable power plugs so it can be easily adjusted to the country's power sockets you're staying in. I remember my old HTC phone once came with 3 different, interchangeable plugs out of the box!
I bought this and works perfectly http://goo.gl/vasfAw
You can also use the Aukey Quick Charge 3.0 products.
I got one for my Mi 5 and its full compatible, shows also quick charge when plugged in.
Is there any significance difference b/w stock xiaomi charger?

I'm using the AuKey Quick Charge 3.0 with 2 Ports and a "good" USB A 3.0 highspeed cable with 56k resistor.
If the display is off and you wake it up while its on charger, on the bottom you can see a notice if its quick or slow charging.

thanks for your quick reply!
I guess am using the same charger you mentioned (w/ 2 orange usb type a ports) in combination with the stock usb type a to c cable which was shipped with my MI5. The cable the charger came with was of little use as it is was not a type c cable :/
this notification you are talking of however.. how does it look like? atm I have no clue what I should be looking for to be honest
(I also tried an Anker QC 3.0 charger - performance-wise it was a lot worse than the Aukey charger and therefore went right back to Amazon)
I went for the Tronsmart qc3 for both car and regular. Good quality, just make sure you buy a decent cable along.

I think the stock charger isn't a QC 3.0 charger. (And neither is the cable IMO.)
But I am not sure, and not bothered to test. :cyclops:
To those who replied here with tronsmart or aukey QC3 chargers, does it come with a USB type C cable? I cannot find any info about this in google alone. TIA, cheers.
My aukey QC3 charger from amazon Germany came without any cable. I am therefore currently using the stock USB type C cable. I am however not sure whether that cable is 100% compliant and to be honest quite annoyed by all that controversy around the type C standard and QC3 and the incompatibility between both -.-

Hey Guys
Can anyone suggest a good, reputable, certified Qualcomm QC3 charger that has an included USB type-C cable?
I was eyeing on Tronsmart's QC3 1port wall charger, but I found out that it only has the micro-usb cable, and not the Type-C for Mi5.

An Aukey is on the way to me with the cable included.
I earlier suggested the BlitzWolf, but BlitzWolf is not really certified for QC3.
This is a list with QC3 charger: https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/quick-charge-device-list

I'm looking to find which quick Charging adapters you guys have found to work the best. Obviously Google is everyone's friend but seems that there are so many out there on Amazon that I don't know which one to go with. Also looking for recommendation on good cables. I have heard that there are some that don't work with the note 7

Tronsmart 18W Quick Charge 3.0 USB Wall Charger for Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, HTC 10, LG G5 - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015ZJKWFS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_MCqVxb4S6MR1H
I bought this brand, but not from Amazon. I live in Singapore, so I got the one with a UK plug.
As far as charging is concerned, it is able to do "Fast Charge" (do note, there is a difference between Qualcomm's Quick Charge and Samsung's Fast Charge)
As for cables, look out for reviews in Amazon by a Google Engineer named Benson Leung. Ever since he bought a cable to charge his Nexus with his Chromebook, and the latter blew up, he has been on a personal crusade to purchase every USB-C cable available to test for a particular flaw and getting their respective companies to rectify the problem.
My electrical physics is not up to speed, but I'm pretty sure this is a concern with USB-A to USB-C cable. C to C is not a problem. Someone may correct me here.
I grabbed an Aukey QC 2.0 wall plug & micro usb $12 on Amazon. It works great. I grabbed a few usb c adapters too.
This is great for additional charger than the stock one.
Also grabbed an Aukey 10,000 mAh battery pack ($18) for on the go. Has qc 2.0 and even recharge the unit with qc 2.0
Just sharing what worked for me. The price was right too.

PLEASE do let me know how many times does the PowerCore 10000 charge the Note 7 from 0 to 100%
Thanks
It should be very close to 2 times. I believe with the loss during charging you can expect about 7000mah in actual performance. I have not charged it without using the device during charging except once and it appeared to use half (2 lights left] It will charge even when using the phone although obviously at a slower rate. So you should have no problem charging it twice or just a hair under two full times based on my experience so far if not using the device during charging. When recharging the power pack itself, plan on leaving the power pack charging all night

I went with the black Samsung stand up charger since it was on sale in the store. Works perfect.

I bought the Samsung Wireless fast charge stand. The phone looks great charging, it charges fast, and you have another oem charging plug. Best Buy matched Amazon for the price of 43.00. You will not be dissatisfied with this charger. It has the old style USB plug so I can use it to charge my headphones, and I can use it to fast charge my Nexus.

My last car charger was a very similar, low profile Aukey one with QC 2.0 and I never had any issues with it either.
This is the one I use. Fast charges both my Nexus 6p and Pixel XL. I think it was mentioned by Benson to be good also.

The Pixel does not support Quick Charge. Don't know what you will get from USB-A to USB-C.
Good setup is 5V/3A = 15W from a good USB-C charger and cable.
Best setup is 9V/2A = 18W from a good USB-C PD charger and cable

All I'm saying is these chargers are 24w / 3A , and when I plug in my pixel it tells me rapidly charging. I can get a full charge in the same amount of time as my charger I received with my pixel phone, or the Belkin USB type c charger I have , just trying to save you guys some money. As for reliability I had a 6p when they first came out and the battery and phone are still good in that an I have always used that charger. Hope this helps!

Although the Snapdragon 821 is capable of Quick Charge 3.0 for the Pixel, it looks like Google has elected to use the USB-C Power Delivery standard. I just looked up a bunch of very confusing technical stuff, but the big advantage of PD is use of the data connection within USB-C while charging. ( like from a computer ). I don't think there is very much difference in the rate of charging with PD vs Quick Charge. Rest assured, the Pixels will charge VERY quickly.
I'm on my way to work but this should sum it up, all sd821 are quick charge 3.0 capable, like I said this charger is 24w/3a an you won't be using the USB PD features while charging in your car anyway.

That's a standard 5v 2.4A charger according to it's specs, at max you'll get 12w decent charge albeit not "max" but who cares, since the Pixel doesn't support qc. Using it with the stock pixel a to c cable should be safe, I wouldn't use an untested cable tho and risk frying the Pixel.
The blitzwolf usb-c +a car charger, non qc, is only $5 delivered on Banggoods on sale, comes usb-c cabled and has usb a slot. I use it and get a good safe charge from it.
The visnic has been tested to work well, only $10 but you need a cable too.
