Vivo touts 120 watt quick charging: Charge a 4,000mAh battery in a short time

Oppo and Huawei stood apart a year ago thanks to their super-fast charging technology, however Vivo figures it can show improvement over that. 

The organization took to Weibo to uncover that it's chipping away at 120 watt fast charging technology. That is multiple times faster than Huawei's 40 watt charging, which charges the Mate 20 Pro and P30 Pro in a little more than 60 minutes. It's additionally more than twice as fast as Oppo's Super VOOC charging, which vows to hit a most extreme speed of 50 watts.

All the more explicitly, Vivo says its 120 watt fast charging tech can accuse a telephone of a 4,000mAh battery in only 13 minutes. So a compatible phone  will be completely energized well before pretty much every other gadget available has hit the 50 percent mark.

Vivo hasn’t revealed any details regarding a release timeline, so it’s likely still months away from commercial availability at best. The firm did use a “Vivo 5G” hashtag on the Weibo post though, suggesting that we’ll see it on an upcoming 5G device.

It isn’t the only company working on super-fast charging though, as Xiaomi demonstrated 100 watt fast charging earlier this year too. A video by the company shows a phone with a 4,000mAh battery hitting 100 percent in 17 minutes. In other words, it looks like ultra-fast charging could be one of the defining trends of 2020.
