5 Fast Car Chargers for Galaxy Note 5

The impressive new Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and even the Galaxy S6 Edge+ use a relatively new technology called Fast Charging. This technology essentially charges these new phones about 40-60% faster than older devices like the Galaxy Note 3 or Galaxy S4. It even does fast wireless charging. However, for those who want to fast charge not only at home but also in the car, below is a list of some great fast car chargers.

Similar to Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology Nexus 6, Galaxy S5, HTC One M9 and even the Note 5 inside the LG G4 have what Samsung calls “Fast Charge” version. Basically, it allows to turbocharge at an extremely fast speed when the battery is almost empty. Samsung claims the Note 5 can go from 0% to 50% in just 30 minutes, and we tested that to be pretty accurate.

That’s very fast, isn’t it? Fast charging is the latest in battery technology because the actual sizes aren’t getting any bigger, making it the next best thing for now. Below, we’ll cover five great chargers that use adaptive, turbo or fast charging technology to make your Galaxy Note 5 or S6 Edge Plus charge in your car as fast as it does at home.

This new battery magic was originally called “Fast Charge” and was announced by Qualcomm and featured in the Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S5, allowing them to charge over 40% faster than older devices thanks to the Qualcomm processors inside. Still, with the Galaxy Note 5, the charging speed is 60% faster than older devices and even faster than the Galaxy S5 or Note 4. It goes from 10% to 50% in less than 30 minutes.

After about 30 minutes, it slowly returns to its normal speeds to preserve and extend the battery’s life, still allowing you to fully charge. My Galaxy Note 5 went from 5% to 68% after only 31 minutes on charge. Below is a preview of what fast charging does, which is shown by Qualcomm on the Nexus 6 and works very similarly to the process and technology in the Galaxy Note 5.

Initially, fast charging was for home charging only, and owners needed a dedicated wall outlet instead of the typical wall wart that comes with most phones. Now the Note 5 comes with it in the box, and you can get the same nifty fast tech while in the car.

Instead of just adding 10-15% to the extra battery life on a 15-20 minute drive home from work or meeting up with some friends, you’ll now get about 40-50% of your battery life. The “Quick Charge 2.0 certified” chargers we’re looking for. Buy one of the options suggested below for your car and the Note 5 will always have more than enough battery to showcase its stunning 5.7-inch Quad-HD display.
