Gallium nitride promises to revolutionize smartphone chargers by dramatically reducing charging time.
Fast charging is one of the latest innovations introduced by smartphone manufacturers, achieving incredible charging speeds. Apple stays at constant speeds that get the 50% battery life in just 30 minutes, but you’ll soon be able to charge your entire iPhone in less time.
Steven Yang, CEO of Anker, explained in an interview with The Verge that thanks to the new generation of chargers gallium nitride (GaN)
“Charging time was around three hours, but dropped to around an hour and 20 minutes with the 20 watt chargers, then to around 30 to 40 minutes with the 40 to 60 watt chargers. Even more adventurous brands hit 120 watts, which would allow the phone to fully charge in under 20 minutes. The phone manufacturers only increase this charging power and reduce the charging time.“.
The gallium nitride, or GaN, was used in chargers to replace silicon. This helps companies like Anker create incredibly powerful and small chargers that deliver over 65 watts of power. It is a technology and materials that Apple has just started using
On the other hand, Yang also supported Apple’s decision not to include a charger in the fall of the iPhone, saying the effect on waste is already noticeable. According to a survey conducted by Anker, around the 50% of people reuse their old chargers
We will see if Apple encouraged to improve charging speed for upcoming iPhone models. While it is true that in terms of autonomy the iPhone has improved a lot, in terms of fast charging they do not offer the best speeds on the market.
