Q: What is Qualcomm Quick Charge?

Quick Charge is a charging standard by Qualcomm for smartphones, power banks, and wall chargers. It enables devices to charge batteries significantly faster by operating at varying voltage ranges. With the growing trend of smartphones featuring larger batteries, regular USB charging is no longer sufficient.

For example, a 5000mAh smartphone might take over 6 hours to fully charge when using a traditional USB charger with 5V/1A of power. However, when you use a QC charger, which stands for Quick Charge, the charging time can be reduced to as little as 2 hours. QC chargers use higher voltages and currents to charge devices more quickly.
