I was very frustrated that my G5 came with a QC 2.0 charger in the box.
So I was happy when I was contacted by Bangood for a review a QC 3.0 charger.
the charger comes with just a charger and that is it.
Works great with the original cable from the G5 and Charges my device much faster.
I like that its a great fixat a good price.
here is the link to the item on there site.

I have attached a couple of pictures for reference.
thank you
well you are right about one thing. the output of the OE charger is EXACTLY the same as the one I had for my note 3

Hi
The S6 comes with what they call an adaptive fast charger. Because I am not too happy with the battery life on my S6, I am looking for an adaptive fast charger in an external battery pack. There are lots of portable chargers on Amazon and a lot of them say fast charging but I am not sure whether that is the same thing or they just say fast charging because they are around 2A. Is there something similar to what the phone comes with available in an external battery pack charger?
TIA
I've only seen 2 batteries that support the Samsung fast charge. Officially it needs to be Qualcomm quick charge 2.0 compatible. There is one from incipio that is $80 or so and one from Aukey for $30. The Aukey is out of stock right now on Amazon and I'm waiting to get one as well.
Also if you are looking for a multiport charger or cigarette lighter adapter Choetech make some that work really well and are QC 2.0.

Thanks. I'll take a look at the two you mention.
I also looker before at the Choetech cut I was rather put off by at least three people claiming it caused a fire!
For my car charger, I use my 2015 KIA Sedona's charger adapter that came with the purchase, and it charges just as fast as the charger that came with the S6.
However, the adapter does get a little hot, but not bad. Really surprised at how fast it does charge.

A while back I won a Choetech wall type C wall charger through XDA and Choetech. Those looking for an additional wall charger for their Nexus 6P or 5X should look no further. This one performs just as well as the original OEM version from Huawei. Came well packed in a small, sturdy cardboard box. Compact form factor makes it easy to carry around if you want to. My only wish is that it came with a cable but I can't quibble since I got the charger for free. Have been using it regularly for the last couple of months with no issues at all. Current Amazon price is $13.99
Go for it!
same here! I won one and it's pretty amazing, zero complaints from me. also super tiny
I have owned that charger from december. Its really great and as OP said it performs just as OEM charger. Well used money for me. There isn't even many of chargers like that available.
Just purchased 2 off amazon with USB to type C cables for 14.99.just make sure you pick the one with the Type C end cuz you can also get the micro USB if you don't choose...so far charge my phone fast as heck...
You're saying this thing can charge 5V/3A even though it uses a USB-A connection?

No, there is a type-c variant too.
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.

Wanted something portable, says "fast charge" on the screen and works great. Cable has been tested by Benson Leung as well.
Here is the direct link to Benson's Amazon reviews, I recommend picking a cable he has tested and approved:

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 also grabbed the Aukey QC 2.0 wall charger and an Aukey type A to type C cable, braided. Aukey has the thickest braided cables I've seen. I have 3 of their braided type C cables, one being 6'. They're awesome. They also meet the Type C specs and are compliant.

I went with the black Samsung stand up charger since it was on sale in the store. Works perfect.
Benson's review of the braided Aukey wasnt great. I ordered a 5 pack of Choetech ones that did well on review. I had no idea about Benson's reviews when ordered. Glad they Check out though. Was originally going to buy the 5 pack of Aukey braided cables.

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.

I just went and looked at Benson's Amazon profile and found the review on the Aukey cable. that was an old cable and review from Feb 9th, at least the review I seen. I read they pulled the cable.
Here is the link to the most recent cable I bought.

Nice, good deal. May still get them. Love the black braided cables. Should prove to be very durable. I find that Anker, Tronsmart, Choetech and Aukey all have great quality stuff that appears to be from the same OEM. I trust them with my electronic power needs.

UPDATE 12/17/2016 Charger still works great no issues with it and my Pixel XL
Here is the detailed testing review information http://lygte-info.dk/review/USBpower Blitzwold USC-C car charger BW-C3 UK.html
Here you can find more detailed testing reviews on other usb devices http://www.lygte-info.dk/info/indexUSB UK.html OR http://lygte-info.dk/info/ChargerIndex UK.html
UPDATE 11/23/2016, mentioned this charger to Nathan K, and he linked me a review done by HKJ http://budgetlightforum.com/node/45176.
COMMENTS: "He felt it was "a bit too powerful". Translation (and my opinion): it lacks overload protection safeties, avoid.
"No individual port overload protection."
UPDATE 11/15/2016: I tested with my Pixel XL and it handles 1400-1450mA in port (A) using stock a-c cable and 1450-1530mA in port (c) cabled usb-c..
UPDATE 11/12/2016; This morning I plugged in at 66% on phone, ampere showed the charger feeding 2400mA. This is as fast as my zerolemon QC wall charger on my lg g4.

I just found this deal on slickdeals and I am just posting the deal here if anyone wants to take advantage. I ordered 3 myself. But do not know anything other than that about the product or the site selling them. Use/Order at your own risk!
FIY: I don't think this is capable of charging the Pixel at 18w max, but it should be able to do it safely at 15w (5v 3A). It supposedly can't handle max charging two devices either. It has a permanently attached USB C cable and a USB A slot.

PSA; as some of you know Benson Leung fried his Chromebook Pixel while testing. Others may not know that on November 9th Nathan K posted messing up his Pixel's Port controller as well.

Be careful what accessories, cables you use, including major manufacturer name brands.

bump still working great and still on sale $5 shipped.

Thanks for the heads up, they still have the coupon code listed in the description.
Do you guys know where to find a warp charger that's longer than 150cm? lol. I hate the short cable OP gives you in the box.
Cable in the box is only 100cm. I did see some 2m cables being sold on AliExpress, but has OnePlus ever produced such a long cable? It likely still works, but I'd be weary of the safety/quality of it.

Dash charge cables apparently work with warp charge so if you can find a longer dash charge cable you are good
Source: https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/...ables-charge-the-7-pro-at-full-warp-30-speed/
There are some on amazon that work great on my 6T and would probably work for Warp also. Just read reviews and descriptions and it will tell you if they are compatible.
These are the ones I bought and they work awesome for Dash quick charging. Colors in black or red.

Bought a 6ft Dash cable directly from OnePlus when I bought my 5 a couple years ago, still works like a charm.
T-Mobile sell a 5ft dash charger cable on their website. I would post the link but I think it violates terms.
