Fast charging has become a standard expectation for modern smartphones. Apple, Samsung, and OPPO each support different fast-charging technologies, making it essential to choose a charger that matches your device's capabilities. This guide covers the best fast chargers available in the Netherlands for iPhone, Samsung, and OPPO phones, with prices from popular retailers like Coolblue, MediaMarkt, and Belsimpel.
Understanding Fast Charging Standards
Before buying a charger, it helps to know the three main standards: USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) used by Apple and many others, Qualcomm Quick Charge (QC) used by some Android phones, and proprietary standards like OPPO's VOOC and Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging. Most modern chargers support multiple protocols, but peak speeds require compatibility.
iPhone Fast Charging
Since the iPhone 8 (2017), iPhones support USB-PD up to 20W for the standard models and up to 27W for iPhone 13 Pro Max and later. Apple no longer includes a charger in the box, so you need to buy one separately. A 20W USB-C charger will fully charge an iPhone 14 Pro Max in about 1.5 hours.
Samsung Fast Charging
Samsung uses Adaptive Fast Charging (up to 25W for most models) and Super Fast Charging (up to 45W for Galaxy S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra). The Galaxy S22 and S22+ support 25W, while the S22 Ultra supports 45W. Samsung also includes a charger with some models, but many recent ones ship without.
OPPO Fast Charging
OPPO uses VOOC (Voltage Open Loop Multi-step Constant-Current Charging) and SuperVOOC. The OPPO Find X5 Pro supports 80W SuperVOOC, while the Reno8 Pro supports 80W. OPPO chargers are typically included in the box, but replacements can be expensive.
Top Universal Fast Chargers
If you have multiple devices from different brands, a universal charger with GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology offers high power in a compact size. Here are the best options.
