Fast Charge is not supported on itel phones sir because Unisoc-Spreadtrum SoCs lack the feature.

what feature will it have to support fast charging?

skywalker240:
To be honest sir, rain de fall here so i never go work for some days.

Give me work and my basket mouth go quite i promise.

Are you not a Xiaomi marketer? Or are they not paying enough? Since you've been famzing Tecno, you go like submit CV?

TheFalcons:
My 9 years old stays with my ageing mum. I've been noticing some distasteful characters that he's been exhibiting recently. But I didn't really read much meaning to them

Not until I went to my home town for a few weeks, and I caught him at the balcony downloading porn with my Mum's phone.

It now all started to make sense to me, because my Mum complains that her weekly data doesn't even last up to a day, and she hardly ever uses any app.

Going through the browser history I found search keywords like;

>Ashley Aleigh pus*y pictures
>Kapri pussy pictures
>Only Kapri pus*y


I was horrified and amused at the same time. I almost burst out laughing. I gave him a stern warning and asked him to return the phone.

A week later, what happens?
Mum goes to market and buys him a smartphone, claiming that he doesn't let her phone rest, then she pleaded for me to give him one of my old SIM cards because buying a new sim card is expensive now.

Just last month one of our tenants in his age range called me with his father's phone, and reported that my Nephew wants to learn Yaho*

A 9 year old o!!!

I just weak

. You need to see the way I'm bursting laughter. That's the times we're living in now, Gen Zs are doing the most.

But on a serious note yeah? I feel you should call the boy and get him talking (not in a harsh tone but more like getting to be his friend) then ask him where he's learning those stuffs from, cos knowing the root of the matter is half way to solving this issue. They give him some advice and let him know the consequences of his actions.

Good luck to you and your small marlian

Children do need smartphones but as parents, it's in our duty to always ensure we gain the trust of our children so they can tell us anything. That way they won't hide things from us. There are various kids smartphones that can limit what they can do on it.

DONFRANSKID:
for a formal transsion user a
I'm not wrong

probably that's your experience but I've never had that issue. And I've also used a Xiaomi Redmi note 4 before and the camera depreciated over time.

Jhayjhay6279:
As i have said earlier spark 7 is out but here is it successor The "spark 7p".it should be released april 16 by the manufacturer and i am already loving it.read the full details from tecno mobile official website here http://www.tecno-mobile.com/ng/phones/product-detail/product/spark-7p-1/#/

If you love the device, buy it and you won't regret it.

DONFRANSKID:
it's not worth the price tag
the camera will die out after sometime

your assertion about the camera is wrong.

Mike7302:
Guys abeg which phone get good battery(like the battery dey last),4g enabled, 6inchs screen and is under 35k .

oga, add money and buy better phone so you won't regret o

sunshineV:
does dis mean the phone camera sensor is generic and would die after 6 months or the device won't receive update?

focus on the matter at hand. Cos if it's TECNO, you'll not let the whole nairaland to hear word.

skywalker240:
Once upon a time in 2019/2020,




Transsion fans: Fast charging is not neccessary in Nigeria, Nigerians does not need it.

Like eh, whether it relates to Tecno or not, you'll always find a way. Are you that jobless and troublesome?

sunshineV:
na so tecno release 10 watts charger as fast charging technology and their mumu users dey celebrate

you're just a troll. Nothing else

CANDYDADDY:
.


To hell with Itel, their phones uses 7hours to reach 100%

did you charge with fast charger and it took 7hrs?

atheistandproud:
Fast charge technology for smartphones is the rave right now. It is all we can hear about on adverts and reviews. A smartphone without fast charge technology is usually down rated by a lot of reviewers and customers alike.

What is fast charge technology for smartphones? What does it mean and why should you even bother?

As the name implies, fast charge simply means charging a battery really fast, faster than conventional methods would allow. This is done by increasing the current/voltage sent to the battery.

The basic USB specification for charging used to be 5V/0.5A (2.5W). The standard today however has been bumped up to 5V/2A (10W). Any charger or phone that can charge faster than 10W is said to be capable of fast charging.


How Fast Charge Technology For Smartphones works

Fast charging works by taking advantage of the rapid charging/constant current phase. It achieves this by pumping as much current as possible into the battery. This can be done by either increasing the current delivered or increasing the voltage.

When using high voltages, the power circuit in most smartphones are designed to step down the voltage and step up the current. This keeps the amount of power delivered the same e.g. 10V/2.5A = 25W. After voltage step down, 5V/5A = 25W. This is called a switch-mode-step-down power supply or buck inverter.

Buck inverters are used to increase or maintain charging efficiency so that even if the power supply drops or increases voltage, power delivery will remain constant. This is the method of fast charging used by Qualcomm (Quick Charge) and USB (Power Delivery).

The other method is by keeping the voltage stable but increasing the current delivered. Oppo (VOOC/Super VOOC) and One Plus (Warp Charge) are good examples.

Different companies use different standards, wires/cables, charging technologies etc. to achieve this goal. The goal of charging a battery really fast. In fact, as we speak, there is a fast charge arms race with Xiaomi set to be the first company to release 200W fast charge.


Fast charging technologies

Huawei

First up on our list is Chinese tech giants Huawei and their Super Charge. It is capped at 40W (10V/4A). The first-generation offered a 22.5W power output (5V/4.5A). Huawei increased this rating to 40W (10V/4A) with the Mate 20 Pro and made the same available on the Huawei P30 Pro, Mate 30 Pro, and the P40 Pro/Pro Plus smartphones.

Samsung

Next up is Samsung. Samsung’s charging technology is based on USB Power Delivery. The first Adaptive Fast Charging protocol supported 18W (up to 9V/2A) charging but is limited to only flagships, starting with the Galaxy Note 5 and up to the Galaxy S20 series. After lagging behind for a while, Samsung finally moved to 25W (11W/2.25A) charging in 2019, and this standard is officially named Samsung Super Fast Charging. The 25W charger is claimed to charge the 4500mAh battery on the Galaxy A70 to approximately 65% in 60 minutes.

Notably, Samsung also launched 45W (10V/4.5A) charging with the Galaxy Note 10 series and then on the Galaxy S20 series. This technology is called Super Fast Charging 2.0, but went back to 25W charging on the Galaxy Note 20 and the Galaxy S21 series.

USB

USB Power Delivery is a standard for delivering power to smartphones and other USB devices. It can provide up to 65W to USB devices using micro-USB and 100W to devices using USB C. While these figures are impressive, the wattage being used by manufacturers are between 15W (5V/3A) and 27W (9V/3A).

Qualcomm

Qualcomm Quick Charge (Q.C) is the most popular and most widespread charging technology. This is due to the ubiquity of Snapdragon SoCs in a lot of phones. The first iteration of Quick Charge, Q.C 1.0 was released in 2013 and has a speed of 10W (5V/2A). It was soon followed by Q.C 2.0 the next year (2014) which improved charging speeds to a max of 36W (5V – 9V – 12V/3A). Q.C 3.0 came in 2015 with greatly improved charging speeds of 92W (3.6V – 20V/2.5A – 4.6A). Q.C 3.0 also came with intelligent power management and smart charging.

In 2016, Q.C 4.0 came with even better power management and smarter charging which helped to protect against overheating, overcurrent supply etc. Q.C 4.0 was also where cross-compatibility with USB-PD technology was introduced.

Q.C 4.0+ showed up in 2017 and introduced safer charging and better heat management. The charging speed for Q.C 4.0+ are the same as those from Q.C 3.0. In addition it offered speeds of 27W (5V – 9V/3A) when used with PD chargers.

Motorola

Motorola Turbo charge is a derivative of USB PD and offers charging speed of 28.5W (5V – 9V – 12V/5A – 2A).

Xiaomi

Xiaomi’s MI Turbo charge is a modification of Qualcomm’s Quick Charge Technology.

Mediatek

MediaTek Pump Express is a charging technology from the company MediaTek. In 2014, MediaTek announced Pump Express Plus with its specifications similar to Q.C 2.0. It delivered power up to 24W (12V/2A). In 2015, MediaTek announced Pump Express Plus 2.0 parallel to Quick Charge 3.0. Pump Express 3.0 was announced in 2016, and it brought support for USB-PD. It supports power delivery of up to 25W (3V – 6V/5A).

Pump Express 4.0, released in 2018, has similar current and voltage specifications and brought USB-PD support.

Oppo
OPPO is among the smartphone industry leaders when it comes to fast charging. Their first generation proprietary fast charge technology is called VOOC (Voltage Open Loop Multi-step Constant-Current Charging) Flash Charge technology. Oppo’s VOOC increases the current value while keeping the voltage close to the battery’s voltage. This removes the need to step down the voltage using buck inverters. This in turn prevents overheating. With VOOC, OPPO smartphones could charge at 20W (5v/4A).

In 2019, OPPO introduced VOOC 3.0 with support for 25W (5V/5A) with the OPPO Reno series. Later on in the year, OPPO launched VOOC 4.0 with the charging rate bumped to 30W (5V/6A). In 2020, OPPO showcased the SuperVOOC 2.0 charging technology with a 65W (10V/6.5A) output. This was first introduced with the OPPO Find X2 Pro and later iterated on the OPPO Reno 4 Pro and the OPPO Reno 5 Pro.

Oppo VOOC technology is utilized on sister brands under different names. On One Plus phones, it is known as Warp Charge and on Realme phones, it is known as Super-Dart charge.

fast charger is the way o.

But that intelligent charger, does it work with every smartphone?

Thanks for this. Very educative.

Solsix:
Everything

how much and what model?

Very beautiful. I trust oraimo

hoilakes:
Lol, sell your old phone add money to the 50k then get a phone of 4 gig 64 or 4 gig 128gig and ENJOY

abi o. I wonder which phone OP wanna buy for 36k

BonPatrick:
Hi guys I want to seek your advice, I have a phone that is 5.5 inch and it use 1gb ram, you can imagine the frustration of 1gb ram phone. Then a friend sent me 50k. Should I buy a phone sold 36k with 6.0 inch and has 32gb storage with 2gb ram and keep 14k Or should I buy the one of 48k that has 6.6 inch with 2gb ram and 32gb storage and keep 2k. Please help me in this decision.

first, consider the brand you're buying from and what specs you're looking for. Look for devices around Tecno spark series.

Solsix:
Am using one of the smallest or cheapest model of vivo, but am in love with the phone. I have never been happier

what do you love most about it

There are lots of phones you can get within that price range of 85k. Tecno has a POVA and Canon series within that range. You'll love it

Ishola87:
I want buy buy phone but I'm confused which phone to buy that i would not regreat .please i need very smart phone with smart display and good performance.thanks

how much is your budget?

edoairways:
Of course they deserve better but Xiaomi has refuse to have their branch here in Nigeria. Even if they had, no enough coverage and enlightenment. Any Xiaomi representative can pm for me market their products in other cities

If Xiaomi needs to gain ground, they need better penetration strategy, if which they don't have.

strangest:
Tecno, itel and infinix are unknown brand in China..... xiaomi is worldwide...

Tecno is a known brand in African too.

Boboswae:
Dude aren't you tired?
Don't you have a life outside of trolling xiaomi?
all these trash topics doesn't dispute the fact that xiaomi is the bigger company both in revenue, Brand name recognition.

I think this question should be directed to those that were awake all day and night on any thread relating to Transsion. Don't act like you don't know this.

Donvic4u:
Prove themselves how?

by establishing a presence in Nigeria. Also, one can't trust the components they use cos you don't know which might trigger some health issues cos they wanna use cheap parts and making it cheap for people

Donvic4u:
Umidigi F2 and Oukitel C21 are far lesser than this but have same specs and better display

personally, I don't trust these two devices cos they've not proved themselves yet

znox:
Monero, litecoin or dash coin are needed at 425/$ come to WhatsApp for fast deal
