When it comes to fast charging power, the Chinese maker, Oppo, is on top of its game. In the area of rapid charging, Oppo holds more than 2,700 worldwide patents as of April 2020. With its 65W SuperVOOC easy charge, the company is already leading in the fast charging sector. It also has three main flash charging technologies: VOOC, SuperVOOC, and AirVOOC. We saw the Oppo 125W charger at the China Joy exhibition back in July.
Oppo’s 125W charging solution loads a 4500 mAh battery in 20 minutes, according to tweets from @DigitalChatStation. Its upcoming flagship, though, will most probably use its 65W approach. This is because it isn’t yet ready for the 125W approach. The heat management mechanism is not flawless (it may also be due to the design).
Oppo believes that in just 5 minutes, this charging solution will produce up to 41 percent, which is for a 4000 mAh battery. It will offer a maximum charge within 20 minutes, however. Even when the screen is off and on standby, the temperature stays below 40°C. The OPPO 125W Super Flash Charger supports protocols compliant with VOOC, SuperVOOC, PPS, PD, and QC. 12.5A current input, multi-pole technology, dual 6C batteries are also sponsored.
OPPO has said that it is possible to use the 125W super flash charging technology to charge anything. This means it will tax you, whether it’s a cell phone, smartphone, or computer. Often, consumers do not have to think about the protocol for charging. As stated earlier, this technology supports PPS, PD, and QC… it will “flash charge” as long as it conforms to the Type-C interface.
It also comes with five safety security tiers, making charging quick and easy. The efficiency of the conversion is as high as 98% and three charge pumps are connected in parallel. The 125W Flash Charging technology will rely on higher charging currents to preserve the power density. It would also ensure that while reducing charging time, it preserves the temperature. The graphs include a DC of 20V at 6.25A.
Oppo did not leave us in the dark in a previous press release with respect to what to expect from the 125W flash charging technology. The firm claims this technology is a big improvement to its current SuperVOOC. Sadly, Oppo didn’t reveal when we’re going to see a system with this technology. This means we’re not sure when we’re going to see a consumer product using the technology. Nevertheless, we expect future flagships to do the honors because it is already official.
Note that iQOO has displayed the fast charging technology of 120W. iQOO states that a 4000 mAh battery can be completely loaded in 15 minutes by its solution. This appears to be easier than the 125W approach from Oppo. In addition, the TUV Rheinland qualification comes with the iQOO 120W ultra-fast flash charger solution. This is something that all the other solutions we have not seen.
