Quick Charge is Qualcomm’s proprietary fast charging technology with the next generation of Quick Charge technology offering 32W fast charging in devices.
Qualcomm wants to set standards for wireless charging and will bring forth a set of Qi wireless charging standards. It will make easier for OEMs to manufacture wireless charging pads that are in line with Qualcomm’s standards as well as Wireless Power Consortium’s standards.
Wireless charging pads supported by Quick Charge technology will be compatible with the existing Quick Charge 2.0, 3.0, 4 and 4+ adapters.
