New Delhi, Sept. 11 -- Qualcomm has introduced Quick Charge 5+, its latest and fastest charging standard, aimed at delivering cooler, more efficient, and higher-speed charging for the next wave of smartphones. It is built on the benchmark set by Quick Charge 5, launched in 2020, the industry's first commercial 100W+ charging solution. Quick Charge 5+ now pushes those boundaries further with capabilities of delivering up to 140W at 20V/7A with substantially reduced heat and improved battery health.

The standout feature of the QC 5+ is its intelligent power delivery capability, which is achieved by lowering the charging voltage while increasing the current. Unlike previous approaches that relied on increasing the voltage to get faster char...
