From ANKER, Leading USB Charging BrandFaster and safer charging with our advanced technology10 million+ happy users and counting
Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0

With Quick Charge 3.0, PowerPower 1+ charges compatible devices up to 80% in 35 minutes: that is 4X faster than a standard charger and 38% faster and more efficient than the previous version, Quick Charge 2.0. Quick Charge 3.0 is the only charging tech that is as cutting edge as your phone.
Note: Apple devices do not support Qualcomm Quick Charge but will accept a standard 1A USB charge.With a Type-C–to–Type-C cable, Type-C devices, such as Nexus 5X and 6P, can support fast charge.With a Type-A–to–Type-C cable, only regular charging speed is possible.

Apple are the ones that force expensive proprietary connectors onto their customers.
Practially every smartphone these days uses Micro USB, except apple of course....

Sorry,i have no idea how to post deals in the proper way. 37% claimed at time of posting
Lol, all these things do is supply a constant voltage for a given current. The intelligent charging circuit is in the device being charged.
Still a good deal even with its marketing BS

It's actually in both. Quick Charge requires negotiation from both sides of the cable, it's not just a simple higher amp charger.
The charger needs to be able to step the voltage correctly with what the device needs, as you can't simply whack a high voltage or current into a Li-ion without having some sensible controlling circuit in there. These are currently too big for a phone, so it's in the charger which the phone negotiates with.
So yeah, it is just a charger, but there is actually a bit of decent tech present in Quick Charge devices. It's not all marketing. It's actually a good idea given how many crappy chargers are out there (and how many recalls we've had) that the regulations for being classed a s Quick Charge device is quite strict. You actually need independent UL certification to class a device as such: http://industries.ul.com/blog/qualcomm-quick-charge-2-0

Rubbish! Quick Charge is a proprietary charging method for compatible Qualcomm based chipsets. It's the same idea as rapid charging with electric cars where the system allows very rapid charging until the battery reaches 80% when it will reduce the ampage to avoid battery damage.

I can confirm it works with my lg g4. recognises as a fast charger as opposed to just charging.
charges much faster than the original charger which is around 2 amps.
this charges at 5v at 2.4a. which theoritically shouldnt make much difference at all. but I concluded it modifies the charging circuits behaviour to modify the charging cycle.
either way it charges really fast. I'm happy with mine.

As its able to utilise the extra 0.4A that's a 20% increase in charge rate so it should be noticeably quicker. Raises the question why LG cheaped out with the power adapter they supplied

USB 1.0, 2.0, 3.0. USB Mini, Micro, 1.A, 2.A, 3.A, Type A, Type B Type C Type HIV etc. etc. I might hate Apple but at least they keep their sh#t simple.

Apple is just a single company, there are thousands of manufacturers making devices using Android OS. Practically, there are only 2 USB standards which are used by most.

Balls finished. :disappointed:
The description is a little odd - it makes the point that a type-c mobile needs a type-c charger to get a rapid charge, and this isn't a type-c charger - so won't get a rapid charge.
