Purchasing Guidance - Anker Premium 5-Port 60W USB Wall Charger PowerPort+ 5 USB-C with Power Delivery

#1

Guys,

still trying to get my head around all the different charging terms…I need a PD delivery charger for my Nintendo Switch I have been told.

However, the other ports are Power IQ, which i am lead to believe will give any device the amount of juice it cant take to charge it as fast as possible. 2 other devices that I charge are Samsung S8+ and Samsung Tab S3.

couple of weeks ago i bought the Anker 10000 mah Battery pack with Power IQ 2.0 and this ‘Fast Charge’ my phone.

My question is, will Power IQ also ‘Fast Charge’ my phone?

My understanding is… YES *

So long as your product will do fast charge. Then (as I understand it) the charger will speak to the battery and ask it how much juice do you want and with the reply, it’ll give that much juice, upto a maximum for that charger.

So if charger has output of 60w, then so long as all the usbs used don’t desire more, they’ll all work to maximum.

You do not need a PD complaint charger for the Nintendo switch, a usb-c to usb-c charger that suplies 5v at 3a will do just find if you’re using it in hand held mode.

Hi @John_Venables,

We appreciate your support in Anker. We feel sorry that since the IQ ports on the PowerPort+ 5 USB-C with Power Delivery doesn’t support Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, it will not be able to quick charge your QC devices such as S8+.

Hope that helps and do not hesitate to email us if you have any other inquiry.

thanks for clarifying…I finally got around to using my powerport +5 and plugged in my Galaxy s8 at 40% charge remaining and it did not fast charge… pretty quick though 40-90% in less than an hour
