Samsung’s Super Fast Charging relies on a USB Power Delivery (PD) specification called PPS. Unlike proprietary fast charging tech, like the Warp Charging in OnePlus devices, PPS is open for any manufacturer to use, but only Samsung seems to be using it widely.
Many USB-C Power Delivery chargers, however, don’t include PPS support, limiting their effectiveness when combined with Galaxy phones. And since Galaxy buyers aren’t getting chargers in the box anymore, accessory makers like Anker can opportunistically swoop in with an offer for buyers needing a new wall wart.

@novenary @jeder I think there shouldn't be multiple specs for USB PD, there should be just one

@RafiX @novenary @jeder I read that it's compatible with PD, it's not some secret trick to make you buy a charger. You can just get even better performance with the latest greatest charger

@piggo @jeder @RafiX yeah also it's not like you fall back to slow 5V 2A charging without it afaik? you just don't get the ludicrous 120W charging you see in phones these days, and like I said: who cares

@novenary @piggo @RafiX it's not the ludicrous 120w, but 25w
