Smartphone manufacturers have been focusing on the fast charging technology for their premium devices for the past few years and it seems that the development in this direction isn’t going to stop anytime soon.
OPPO has been one of the leading players when it comes to fast-charging technology and the company has today announced that it has another major development in mobile charging technology. The Chinese company has confirmed through a poster that details about the same will be revealed on 22nd July.
In the poster shared by OPPO on Weibo, it reads: “From 22.5W to 125W, can mobile phone charging only get faster and faster?” It also adds that the company will talk about something other than “fast.”
Last year, OPPO had unveiled its 125W Super Flash Charging Technology that can charge a 4,000mAh battery-powered smartphone up to 41 percent within five minutes and can fully charge the device in 20 minutes.
The technology is built on the existing 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging protocol. The VOOC charging protocol has always focused on increasing the current (instead of the voltage) to increase the total wattage. It is also compatible with the previous versions like SuperVOOC and VOOC protocols.
While the technology was announced last year, the company is yet to incorporate this fast charging solution in its smartphones and the upcoming announcement could be related to that. Recently, ‘Digital Chat Station’ had revealed that the OPPO 125W Super Fast Charging Technology is undergoing reliability and aging tests at the Huizhou factory.
Are we finally getting the 125W fast charging support in a commercial smartphone? To know for sure, we will have to wait for the official event on 22nd July which is just a few days away. So, stay tuned!
