Samsung stayed out of smartphone charging speed wars. Although the competition has reached 120 W of fast charging with the latest launches, the smartphones of the South Korean technology giant support only up to 45 W of charging. Now, a newly leaked image shows a 65W charger from Samsung.
The company’s next 65 W charger (EP-TA865) was certified by the South Korean authorities in September 2020, but this is the first time we’ve seen it on the skin. It has a single USB Type-C port and supports USB Power Delivery up to 20 V and 3.25 A. It is also compatible with PPS (programmable power supply), which means it would be compatible with a wide range of devices, including smartphones and laptops. Although there is no indication that the new charger is for the next Galaxy S21 series, it can ship with one of its next laptops and even the Galaxy Note 21.
In the past, the company had released two USB PD 3.0 power controller chips (SE8A and MM101) that support charging up to 100W. Do you want Samsung to improve your game and bring faster charging technology to your smartphones?
