iPhone 8/Plus So how does quickcharge work with Iphone 8plus?

[shankar2]

So I got an iphone 8 plus. I also got the Anker quickcharge wireless charger for this iphone. It has a qc compatible power adapter and a circular device to place the iphone on.

However the quick charging doesn't work. From what percentage battery to what does the qc take place? I was at 71% battery and it went to 75% in normal time like the charger included with the phone.

Any tips would be useful. Thanks!

Wireless charging is slower than wired charging, so quick-charge wireless is roughly the same as standard speed wired

The quick charging capabilities only work when the phone is charging from 0 to 50%, then it slows down. You might see a difference vs the pack-in USB charger around that point - the difference is only 2.5W.

The only true quick charge you'll get is by using the Apple USB-C charger and cable - that one works at 18W if I recall correctly.

MR actually did a testing of the charging capabilities:

To sum it up:
-Wireless max 7.5W with approved charging pads, rest of them 5W.
