Today at an event on New York, Qualcomm has announced their next-generation smartphone processor with ‘Quick Charge 4.0’. The new SoC, Snapdragon 835 is manufactured under 10nm manufacturing process and this will replace the high-end mobile processor Snapdragon 820/821.
The new Quick Charge 4.0 is the successor to the preceding Quick Charge technologies, Quick Charge 4.0 is said to offer even faster charging time and higher efficiency. The life of people is being busy and they get less time to charge their phone as a result they have to miss important stuff. So, to make life a bit easier Quick Charge 4.0 can play an important role, also other 150 companies are supporting Quick Charge.

With only 15 minutes of charging time, Qualcomm claims it could charge a telephone to half battery. This is achieved by improved Dual Charge Parallel Charging Technology (called “Dual Charge ++”) which is said to offer 20% quicker charging and 30% higher productivity at up to 5 degrees celsius cooler temperatures contrasted with Quick Charge 3.0, which is huge gain over previous generation.
A noteworthy centre for attraction if Quick Charge 4.0 has been on enhancing the safety and protection, with various extra layers of security added to prevent battery over-charging. Quick Charge 4.0 keeps a hefty part of the current components, such as, the 3 layers of over-voltage security, 3 layers of over-current assurance, and 4 layers of over-temp protection, and adds them with new elements, such as, the capacity to distinguish the quality and condition of the cables being used.
Quick Charge 4.0 has an ability to tell the quality of cable being use and adjust the charging current according to it. This fast charging technology will come with new Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, and the phone equipped with this SoC is expected to ship for consumers starting mid-2017.
