The "environmental protection" operation of the iPhone has made many users begin to realize that there are many categories of mobile phone charging heads, but it is easy to make selection difficulties as soon as the category is more, and how fast can the dazzling charger set bring to the iPhone? What is gallium nitride technology? Just recently the author just received the 30W Gallium nitride charger and fast charging data cable of Taipower, which just happens to integrate the various characteristics of the charger set on the market, and we use it to talk about charging.
First of all, Taipower 30W gallium nitride charger is the most conspicuous label - gallium nitride, which is a semiconductor material that has frequently appeared in the public eye in recent years, compared to the original silicon material, gallium nitride has higher efficiency, which allows the charging head to reduce the internal components while maintaining the original power to achieve a smaller volume. We actually measured the Taipower 30W Gallium Nitride charger, its size is about 42mm * 32mm * 32mm, in fact, the hand and Apple's classic Wufu Yian 5W charging head volume is close, while the Taipower 30W Gallium Nitride charger also has a folding plug design, which makes it more convenient to carry. In terms of weight, Taipower's 30W gallium nitride charger is controlled around 47g, which is quite light in the hand, and there is basically no sense of weight when carrying around, which are the advantages brought by gallium nitride.
In terms of design, Taipower 30W Gallium Nitride charger adopts the splicing of matte and mirror plastic, and the side matte part has a certain vertical stripe, which can play a certain anti-slip effect, more convenient for the insertion and removal of the charging head, and the overall effect is quite simple.
With the combination of The Taiwan electric fast charging data cable is made of braided material, this design can make the cable more resistant to pulling, for the common interface of the iPhone charging cable bending damage, the Taiwan electric fast charging data cable has also been reinforced and protected, which should be praised.
It should be noted that due to the limitations of the charging protocol, the interface of the 30W Gallium nitride charger of The Taiwan power supply adopts a USB Type-C port, and the A-port data cable included with the old version of the iPhone cannot be used. Therefore, this part of the user recommends purchasing a C-port data line or directly with the fast charging data line of Taipower.
Actual charging We chose the iPhone 13 Pro Max for testing, starting from 1% about to shut down, using a 30W Gallium Nitride charger + Taiwan power fast charging data cable for charging. The test results show that the charging process takes exactly 2 hours, specific to the charging time point, the mobile phone has a higher power before 80%, and then turns into a trickle charge state to protect the battery. The test results are similar to the results of the same level of charging head and even Apple's own notebook charging head that we have tested before, which is a conventional fast charging speed.
It is worth mentioning that although Apple has not officially promoted the real fast charging power of the iPhone, according to our previous actual tests, the power that the iPhone can achieve is higher than the 18W that was included with the previous iPhone 11 Pro series. So when the iPhone 13 series continues to use this 18W charging head, it will not achieve the actual peak power. To this end, we also tested the charging power of the 30W Gallium nitride charger on Taipower, and at the low power of the iPhone (20%), we measured the actual output power of around 27W, which is also the peak power of the iPhone charging we measured before.
After the overall test, the performance of the 30W Gallium nitride charger of Taipower is still quite good. In terms of charging power, just meet the peak charging power of the iPhone, you can charge the phone at the highest power, and due to the presence of gallium nitride material, the volume control of the entire charging head is quite excellent, for iPhone users, this should be a charging package that is quite worth buying.
