Preface
Since Apple has canceled the configuration of charging to the head in the name of supporting environmental protection, this is to ask users to buy a mobile phone, and to pass on the charge to the first generation, if there is no Apple's original charging head, then how to choose a third-party charging head that can perfectly replace the official one?
Especially the IPhone15 series, began to unify the interface, and from now on can be a universal charger with Android, then, the user is even more confused by the two monks, more confused, now, the Apple chargers sold on the market are varied, some brands are mixed, shoddy, such chargers will not only hurt the IPhone hardware, but also have serious safety risks.
In order to let friends avoid this pit, today the Apple chargers sold on major online platforms, according to the price of a total of 24 models, do a bottom-up charging test, from the charging power, charging process heating, charging ripple three aspects, do a test, and finally give you a suggestion, choose a charging head that can perfectly replace the official one.
First of all, I declare that this article is definitely not an advertising advertorial, focusing on an objective and truthful, speaking with measured data, not favoring any brand, nor complaining about any brand.
In this test, the mobile phone used is IPhone15Promax, a total of 24 charging heads were tested, respectively from Pinxixi, T Bao, J East purchased, the price range is more than 90 yuan, 60 yuan ~ 90 yuan, 30 yuan ~ 60 yuan, 30 yuan below.
Before the test, let's talk about the charging protocol, the current charging heads basically support the PD fast charging protocol, only Huawei uses its own exclusive SCP protocol, and some low-cost charging heads still use AFC, QC3.0 protocol, supporting old and old devices.
1. Charging speed
The test state of the mobile phone is zero power shutdown state, the charging cable uses the same official original line, 24 charging heads in the same power supply state, there is a little current situation during the test, the new charging head is charged for about 45 minutes, emitting the smell of burnt plastic, I dare not continue, exit the test, after the test, there are 12 chargers The charging time is shorter than the time of Apple's official charging head, and the performance is good, there are 11 charging heads The time is longer than the official, among them, the special geek charging head took the shortest, it took 1 hour 23 minutes and 35 seconds, Xin Weiye took the longest time, it took 2 hours 15 minutes and 45 seconds to fully charge 15PM, the statistics are as follows:
2. Heating during charging (charging head, non-mobile phone)
24 charging heads charge for 20 minutes, and then measure the infrared temperature, among them, Apple's official charging head has the highest performance, the temperature is controlled at 34 °C, which is the lowest temperature, and the temperature of the new charging head is the highest, reaching 86 °C, which is directly hot, a total of 8 charging heads The temperature exceeds 60 °C, which has certain potential safety hazards, the statistics are as follows, friends refer to themselves.
3. Charging ripple test
The charging head converts the power supply AC into low-voltage direct current, and then enters the current into the mobile phone battery through the wire, in the process, the stability of the input current depends on the charging head to maintain, the low-voltage current is fluctuating up and down, the strength of this fluctuation needs to be reflected by the charging ripple, in the industry, the charging ripple is lower than 200MV (millivolt), the larger the voltage ripple, the greater the charging safety hazard, and the lower the efficiency.
24 charging heads have been tested, and three charging heads have ripple data of more than 200MV, among them, Moss, Tusla, and Apple's official three are the best, and the other charging data are as follows, for your own reference.
Through the above test, the performance of the 24 charging heads has been very obvious, you get what you pay for, and several charging heads below 30 yuan are wiped out and directly abandoned, so the rest of the charging head brands that pass the test, how to choose which one can replace the official charging head? In order to show that I am not advertising, I will not give specific suggestions, so I will tell you a few selection criteria and choose for yourself.
- The charging time is lower than Apple's official charging head;
- Must support PD3.0 charging protocol;
- The heating temperature of the charger should not exceed 50°C;
- The voltage ripple should not exceed 100MV;
- As for the appearance of the charging head, the number and type of interfaces, you can choose according to your preference.
Finally, to give you a piece of advice, now many brands are hyping charging power, in this way, if you advertise anything 100W or even higher, skip it directly, and some profiteers deliberately false standards, play word games, give you an example, there is a charger on the spell, marked 30W, in fact, the test is only about 12W, carefully look at the charger instructions, but the above is the standard "model: 30W", Xiaobai thinks this is power, but in fact, "30W" is just a model, the real meaning is"Three zero W", everyone must pay attention.
【Conclusion】This test is not easy, presumably through such a test, friends should know how to choose, follow me, I will continue to bring you more practical and useful tests, if the above tests are detrimental to the interests of some brands, please inform!
Here, thank you again for Station B "No. 6 Chuangye Road"!
