0xF 0 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 The spec says "Quick Charge 3.0", but Wikipedia says here and here that the Snapdragon 835 features Quick Charge 4. Could you please clarify that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EskeRahn 5,427 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 It is QC3. Just got it confirmed. (And no, I do not know what other component(s) preventing it from doing QC4) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SirBaconIII 66 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (And no, I do not know what other component(s) preventing it from doing QC4) I'd be really interested to know what's preventing that implementation. My guess would be the charging port itself, but I know literally nothing on the topic. It does seem that one addition between quick charge 3 and 4 is USB-PD, and since Google now makes that a requirement (https://www.xda-developers.com/google-new-android-devices-type-c-support-usb-pd/) I wonder if it would become a possibility? Mind you, this is all just speculation on my part, so please take it with a grain of salt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All has to be dimensioned for a higher current/power throughput... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noir 112 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 There is certainly another circuit involved, Power Management and charging are as far as I am aware of 2 additional ICs. They have to meet the specifications aswell, and there might be the bottleneck to QC4.0 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
