Why apple mobile phones support up to 20 watts of fast charging, while Android phones have already played to 120 watts or even 160 watts. Even wireless charging is faster than Apple's. Why is that?
Doesn't Apple have the technology of super fast charging?
Of course not, even if a large company like Apple has no technology, it is certainly a casual thing to collect a small company that specializes in charging technology. So why did he do it? In fact, Apple mobile phone is not as rolled as the Android machine, it only needs to change the position of the camera, add a few colors to the fuselage will attract a large number of fruit powder to pay.
In fact, last year's updated Apple 13 and Apple 12 in the hardware configuration of the improvement is not large, but also support the highest 20 watts of PD fast charging, but the sales of each model are finally tens of millions of levels.
This shows that Apple is not without this technology, and its biggest reason is for profit considerations.
Since the iPhone 6 series, Apple's phones have become more and more expensive. And the accessories of mobile phones are also getting higher and higher, and accessories such as headphones are no longer given away.
At present, there are 3 kinds of mobile phone interfaces, one is the essential MICRO USB, referred to as Android head, and the other is Apple's exclusive lighting interface. The other is the popular type C, which is often said to be Huawei holes, round holes, of which the Android mouth and Apple's lighting interface are already very old interfaces.
And the maximum withstand current is only 2A, and type c has an absolute advantage in this regard. Supports fast charge power of up to 100 watts. Moreover, there are many compatible protocols, the expansion function is powerful, and the transmission rate can reach dozens of Gs per second.
We all know that Apple's third-party data cables need to be officially certified and need to be implanted with Apple's dedicated chips through the authorization of this MFI. Therefore, Apple is indifferent to fast charging, the main reason is because of the power limitation of its own lightning interface, and Apple is not willing to put down its body to use the Type C interface of the Android camp, which involves patent fees and licensing fees, and it is inevitable that the technical staff will make a lot of adjustments, which is obviously somewhat thankless.
So this is the fundamental reason why Apple is reluctant to change for ten years. As for why the Android machine has always emphasized how many watts and how many watts of super fast charging they support. The biggest reason is to improve your core selling point. At present, the mass production model equipped with the surging P1 charging chip is the Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro, through actual measurements, the mobile phone starts from 1% of the power and uses the 120W surging suit to charge, and it only takes about 20 minutes to finish. The fast charging temperature under the low temperature mold is only 37 ° C like body temperature, which is unimaginable for fruit powder.
Finally, it is also related to Apple's environmental protection strategy, which is known to have always advocated environmental protection (no charger). From this point of view, I rather like Android's non-environmental protection strategy.
