With the current battle of smart phone specs, no one can doubt that the next big thing in the smart phone industry will be the battery. How long its going to last? How long will it take to charge? These are some of the most vital questions when choosing a new flagship companion among user these days!
So for all of them, a new press release has come from the smartphone processer giant Qualcomm. They have introduced a next-generation Fast Charging Technology with Quick Charge 3.0. This technology will be available next year with Snapdragon 820 processors.
This new algorithm developed by Qualcomm Technologies, designed to allow portable devices the ability to determine what power level to request at any point in time for optimum power transfer, while maximizing efficiency. With Quick Charge 3.0 you can charge a typical phone from zero to 80 percent in about 35 minutes compared to conventional mobile devices without Quick Charge that may typically require almost an hour and a half.
Quick Charge 3.0 is designed to be up to 38 percent more efficient than Quick Charge 2.0, while also implementing additional steps to help protect battery cycle life. Additionally, when used with Qualcomm Technologies’ latest, advanced parallel charging configurations, Quick Charge 3.0 can:
- Help improve fast charging up to 27% or reduces power dissipation by up to 45% when compared to Quick Charge 2.0.
- Charge up to 2x faster than Quick Charge 1.0
Available now, Quick Charge 3.0 will be featured as an option on select Qualcomm
Snapdragon processors, including Snapdragon 820, 620, 618, 617 and 430, and is anticipated to appear in mobile devices launched next year. Qualcomm Snapdragon processors are products of Qualcomm Technologies
