Back in 2015 we published the Battle of the fast battery chargers, our very first test of quick charging innovations. Back then a normal USB brick delivered just 5W and the most powerful charger checked topped out at 25W. Lets just state that things have advanced given that.
The fastest charging system we have actually evaluated comes from the Black Shark 4, whose power brick pumps out 120W and can totally fill the 4,500 mAh battery in 19 minutes.

Yes, the battery has a slightly smaller capacity, but it has a different internal structure too– its an 8C battery. We will not dig too much into it now, however the C-rate numbers show the maximum amperage at which you can discharge a battery or charge.
Now we have in our hands a principle gadget that guarantees to cut the charging time almost in half– the Infinix Concept Phone 2021 features a 160W Ultra Flash Charge power brick that intends to fill the 4,000 mAh battery in simply 10 minutes, all while observing strict security procedures.
And the power brick does output a fair bit of amperage, it tops out at 20V and 8A to reach the maximum of 160W of power. We call it a brick, however the charger itself utilizes GaN (gallium nitride) and SiC (silicon carbide) components that make it rather compact for its output. It weighs under 200g, which is way less than a typical laptop battery charger in the 100+ Watt class. This Infinix battery charger supports multiple protocols, so it can certainly charge laptops too.

This is a piece of electroluminescent movie that can act as an interesting option to the now mostly extinct alert LEDs. Its thin, but covers a big portion of the back, much larger than can quickly be covered with standard LEDs.
The phone can undergo another visual improvement thanks to the solid electrochromic film. The back of the phone is normally a slate gray color, though it shifts a little as light hits it at various angles. However, the phone can turn the back a light blue color.
The Infinix Concept Phone is also a demonstration car for a number of other innovations that the business is working on. One is immediately noticeable when you plug in the phone– a line of green light connects the USB-C port and the circle in the middle of the “NOW” stencil on the back. It pulsates while the phone charges.
Infinix has positioned this as a sort of notice system– if you have actually a missed call, your phone will be blue. Really, it begins turning blue as quickly as the phone begins ringing.

The back of the phone is normally a slate gray color, though it moves somewhat as light hits it at various angles. While this device will never be offered to the public, its charging system may be featured in upcoming Infinix flagships.
As the name makes it clear, this is a principle gadget, it is a demonstrator of the Ultra Flash Charge innovation too was the chameleon back. So, that is what we will be testing– how quick can the battery struck 100% charge?

That too maybe, though we do not have any strong details. We will be sharing our thoughts and test findings from our time with the Infinix Concept Phone 2021 soon.
