Google wants to unify fast charging systems on Android

Google fixes Android problems

Fast charging has caused problems, at least to Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 devices that ended up exploding, despite the fact that everything pointed to the fact that the problem did not lie in the connectors, but in the batteries themselves. But the only problem is not this, and it is that Google is seeing how companies are presenting fast charging systems on Android devices that do not end up convincing everyone and that they are different from each other. Now want to end this by launching a Document of the Definition of Compatibility in Android, to set the way forward for fast charging.

It includes recommendations, such as the fact that they do not include individualistic technologies that exceed the standardized voltage in Android devices, creating interoperability problems between chargers of different brands, despite being the same connector. Are the technologies of Quick Charge and Qualcomm the ones that seem to create more problems in this regard, and be careful, because Android could prevent future versions of the operating system from using these fast charging media that are becoming so popular in recent days.

The absolute purpose is that all USB-C chargers for Android devices work equally between different brands, because perhaps it is an aspect that Apple has always criticized, the fact of using its specialized cables, when it turns out that Android devices that are They are launching lately feature charging technologies that seem incompatible with each other, causing a serious closed system problem. This would serve to avoid the sleeve width that companies are charging with the opening of the USB-C, something that did not happen with the microUSB except on rare occasions, because it was a widely used system and did not allow too much excess.
