The Best Quick Charge 3.0 Single Port Wall Charger | Anker vs Aukey vs Tronsmart - General Accessories

hi guys
i want to buy a Single Port Wall Charger
which one has a better built quality from your experience ?
1- AUKEY PA-T9 18W USB Wall Charger Compatible with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0
Amazon
2-Tronsmart WC1T 18W Quick Charge 3.0 USB Wall Charger
Amazon
3-Anker PowerPort+ 1 Quick Charge 3.0 18W USB Wall Charger
Amazon
from the pictures(i think) it seems aukey has a better board quality than anker but i could'nt find any pictures of Tronsmart WC1T board
base price for both anker and aukey is about 40$ and for tronsmart is 25$ so maybe those two have a better build quality
but some reviews about other tronsmart products says that chargers from this company have a better quality in material (housing plastic) than aukey or other
which one do you prefer?

I think Tronsmart is better.
I was thinking about buying a Qualcomm QuickCharger and researched it a lot. I chose the Tronsmart charger over the Anker Powerport singleport wall charger.
Pro's:
1. Comes with a USB cable (24 AWG) with a length of 6 ft. (I wanted a long USB cable with good charging rates! For Quickcharging, a good cable is a must along with the QuickCharge adapter)
2. It comes with an Indian type plug (I am from India, and didnt wana buy a converter for USA to India conversion)
3. footprint is similar to Anker
Cons :
1. No LED light (In Anker, blue light normally; green when in 9V/12V. However, once you have established that your device supports Quickcharge, the colour change has no significance)
Good luck. Also let me know which one you bought.

any other thoughts?
which one do you think has a better build and board quality?

They are all GOOD, and possibly made in the same place in China. Not familiar with Transmart, but I have reviewed a ton of Anker and Aukey, and Choetech products. They all good because they have a better quality control and offer an excellent support and extended warranty. To differentiate, maybe look for better accessories, like low gauge cables (that's a plus for high current charging), and better price deals.
Btw, what are you planning to charge with QC3.0, are there any phones/tablets even available to take advantage of it?

Anker makes a quality product. I know their batteries work well. I'd go with them over the others.

I also trust Anker's quality. But I could think twice when purchasing since its price is always highest one.
Anker, Aukey and Tronsmart quick chargers all comes with 18W output. Actually the 1st release of this products share the same specifications.
So the quality is the point. It is very difficult to decide based on their Amazon reviews, almost the same review rating.
So, I am iClever Fans, since I bought a dual usb charger from their store. Works so great as I expect.
Its quick charge 3.0 single port charger is Amazing, 24W output.
Wow, Seems like the seller is providing deal price at 13.59$.

Ii would prefer aukey, I bought aukey qc 3.0 for use in car, and it works very well, I got some hdmi miracast adapter from Tronsmart and there is poor support on it, and does not work well (cant connect from NB or PC with Windows 10 to the adapter, but from smarthphone it works, only sometimes drops connection)

I have my HTC M10 on hand now. Just buy a set of QC 3.0 charger(wall, car, desktop) from Tronsmart. Works as expected.

if you want a cheap options the Aukey PA-Y2 blows the competitions away.
https://www.aukey.com/products/amp-type-c-dual-port-wall-chargerwith-quick-charge-3-0
this is the only charger that can fast charge both USB Type A devices and Type C devices.
Type C devices like Galaxy S8, Nexus 5X/6P or Google Pixel aren't able to be fast charged using a type a to type c cable, so please consider it when getting a type a only charger.

Anker® 48W 9.6 Amp 4-Port USB Car Charger with PowerIQ Technology $11.99 @ Amazon

Just wanted to pass this savings along for a Anker 48W 9.6 Amp 4 port USB car charger for $11.99 w/code at Amazon.
I have 3 of the Anker 2 port car charger but found that 2 ports just wasn't enough for my needs with all the electronics that I have. So when this new 4 port car charger came out from Anker, I bought 2 of these at the $14.99 regular price and they are worth every penny.
This car charger came in handy last week on my trip with the family as I had a GPS, 2 cell phones and a tablet plugged into this thing and it charged them without skipping a beat. Also this charger has a rather small footprint given that it has 4 USB ports.
It is one of the most powerful car charger in the market. 48 watts of power (2.4 amps per port or 9.6 amps overall) lets you charge up to four tablets, smartphones or other devices at full speed simultaneously. I recommend this charger to everyone and it would also make a great gift.

I don't work for Anker or have any affiliation with them. Just wanted to pass along this deal for a great car charger.
You don't think 10A out of car socket going to blow your fuse? I would worry a bit having 4x plug connected to a single socket with every charging port loaded.

Someone made a similar comment:
"4 ports and "9.6 Amps" is all well and good, but keep in mind the fuse rating of the car's port. I would say they range 5-10A. "
And here was a reply/explanation:
"That is 9.6A at 5V which is 48W (as also indicated in the product description). Figure 80% conversion efficiency (it is likely better than that) and you are looking at the car port delivering 60W. Worst case scenario is car off and battery voltage at 12V. That would yield a current of 5A. Better case scenario is car is running and at 14V. That would yield a current of 4.3A. Either way, you are far from maxing out the circuit. "
I find it

Quickcharge 3 car charger recommendations?

I need a buy a new car charger anyway so I want to get the most capable one for the HTC 10. I suspect that would include the quickcharge 3.0 spec and a USB-C port?
Will there be any benefit to QC3 over USB-C compared to QC2 and a USB-A to USB-C cable?
I've looked on Amazon but I don't see anything that appears to fit the bill. Are there any other phones out now that have both QC3 and USB-C that we can gain experience from? I know the Nexus 5x and 6p has USB-C, but they don't have QC3, right?
Look for Tronsmart chargers (QuickCharge3.0) over aliexpress, might take a few weeks to deliver but the product is nice and cheap.
Even better if available over ebay/amazon.
I've just ordered this one from Amazon in readiness.

I looked at that one but it appears to only have USB-A connections. I'm under the impression that USB-C to USB-C will give better charging results?

This one on Amazon seems to fit your suggestion. $20 on Amazon Prime seems like a decent deal.
http://www.amazon.com/Charger-Tronsmart-Quick-Charge-Technology/dp/B018K7LHBU
EDIT: In fact, it's an even better deal at $11 with discount code "USBCCHAR". I just ordered one.
I don't think you'll notice much difference.
HTC deliveres also an USB A to C cable with the 10.
There is a maximum of charging speed and I think you can get that also with an USB A to C.

That would be the cheapest thing that you can get delivered quickly; Aukey is another economical option that you can check.
Aliexpress ones sell for cheaper usually (or even half the cost during sale) but those take alot of time to deliver (it being shipped from China via standard international shipping).

I would choose Anker on Amazon if I want to buy a QC 3.0.
I love tronsmart products because it has lots of models:http://www.tronsmart.com/products/quick-charge-3-0-car-chargers From 1 port to 3 ports, USB A port to Type-C port.
Easiest way would be to take a look at the Qualcomm QC certified list. It's a great starting point.
Also the list has direct links to product pages which is certainly a nice touch.
https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/quick-charge-device-list
Because if it's certified "by Qualcomm" (UL really), I'd say it's up to snuff..
Of course the list isn't updated instantly but rather monthly, so when new devices and accessories (or power controllers) roll out, and they pass the certification process, they'll be added there eventually.
I follow
https://plus.google.com/+BensonLeung/posts
for his tested products and I think everyone will be fine.
Qualcomm has a list as well
https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/q...ge-device-list
I applied to review a free Choetech QC 3.0 car charger, hope they can contact me soon.

I'd be careful with these..
"Dodocool" doesn't have any accessories listed in Qualcomm's certified accessories list. (PDF)
No QC3.0 accessory OR QC2.0 accessory.
Their products do seem OK but I'm personally not gonna trust any manufacturer for example being my QC3.0 charger unless they have something on that list, at least some product that shows they have actually made something that complied with Qualcomm's standard, especially since that list isn't updated daily rather monthly.
P.S. That's a wall charger and this thread is about car chargers and besides, the 10 ships with a QC3.0 wall charger.
Edit: Now I actually looked at the Dodocool QC3.0 wall charger reviews, this one has pictures and NO UL LOGO hence it's not UL listed hence it's not certified.
I would avoid it. Might be perfectly fine and fully compliant OR it could kill your dog and burn your house down etcetera.

[Review] Tronsmart QC 3.0 Chargers

Tronsmart Quick Charge 3.0 Product Reviews
Disclaimer: I was sent these items in exchange for an unbiased review.
Overview
I tend to underestimate the number of things I need to charge everyday, or often (3 phones, Bluetooth headphones, android TV remote etc.) hence why these multiport chargers are perfect for me or anyone else who needs a lot of ports. Every room in my apartment has a charging hub, wall charger, or wireless charger depending on where you look.
I have used Tronsmart products for a long time (even before I was asked to review things for them), so naturally I will do my best to provide the best unbiased review that I can.
Tronsmart 3 Port 42W Quick Charge 3.0 Wall Travel Charger
This style of charger is my favorite to date given the number of ports in a small convenient package. Generally, I will carry one of my tri-port chargers with me during a normal day of classes just in case I need to charge my phone, and or Bluetooth (LG Tone Platinum) headphones. The other aspect I like about this charger is its folding wall plug. I cannot count the number of times I’ve broken a plug off a charger in my backup because they general bounce around along with my books, notebooks, and laptop, so this tiny detail is something that shouldn’t be overlooked. I own a few of these chargers now (dual port type-c/type-a, tri-port QC 2.0 that’s identical aside from the charging standard). I’ve yet to find a better compact travel charger to date which should speak for itself given the number of chargers I have (in excess of 20).
What’s in the Box
-Tri-port charger
-Documentation
-Micro USB cable
Build & Design
All of the corners are rounded to give the charger a nice feel when you need to pick it up. The overall construction consists of matte plastic on the sides, and a glossy plastic around the edges that draws you in while making the charger look smaller than it is. Along the back you will find the rated input/outputs for each of the 3 ports along with some certification information that is required.
Charging breakdown by port
Output 1,2: 5V / 2.4A
Output 3 QC 3.0: 3.6-6.5V/3A, 6.5-9V/2A, and 9-12V/1.5A
Summary
Given the ability to charge multiple devices at once while still charging one of those at QC 3.0 speeds is nice to have. I mentioned that I personally will charge my phone, and a set of headphones, or other device depending on the day. Tronsmart’s wall plug design is nice, and ideal for travel, so given that along with the compact size I would recommend this charger.
Tronsmart 5 Port Quick Charge 3.0 54W Charging hub
The 5-Port charger is essentially a slightly bigger, more stationary version of their 42W tri-port wall charger. One part I think is good to note is the long (~5-6[ft]) proprietary power cable for the charger. I think of this charger as a mini less powerful version of their 90W Titan desktop charger. You only get 1 QC 3.0 port alongside 4 normal 5V/2.4A ones, so if you need to quick charge multiple devices, this isn’t the best charger to do that.
What’s in the Box
-Tronsmart 5-Port Port 54W Charging hub
- 3.3[ft] micro USB cable
-Power Cable
-Documentation
Build & Design
The build is identical to their 42W QC 3.0 travel charger, so I will paste my description of it below for simplicity. There are a few subtle differences such as the charging cable instead of a direct wall plug. This gives you more flexibility for the chargers placement while still maintaining a small footprint.
“All of the corners are rounded to give the charger a nice feel when you need to pick it up. The overall construction consists of matte plastic on the sides, and a glossy plastic around the edges that draws you in while making the charger look smaller than it is. Along the back you will find the rated input/outputs for each of the 3 ports along with some certification information that is required.”
Charging
I tested 2 ports at a time via separate multimeters to verify the outputs wouldn’t be affected when another device was plugged in. This proved to be accurate which is great since some chargers will drop output current when under a heavy load.
Charging breakdown by port:
Output 1,2,3,4: 5V / 2.4A
Output 3 QC 3.0: 3.6-6.5V/3A, 6.5-9V/2A, and 9-12V/1.5A
Summary
This is a good small charger that can be used on a desktop or nightstand to charge a bunch of things. I wouldn’t recommend it for traveling due to its overall size, so with that being said I would say it’s a stationary charger. If you need to only charge 1 device at a faster rate, and still charger other things, then you won’t be disappointed with this 5-Port charger.
Tronsmart 42W Tri-Port Quick Charge 3.0 Car Charger
While there are many car chargers out there today that seemingly offer the same thing, I’ve found this one to be better than most of my other ones. Previously I was using a 2-port Tronsmart QC 2.0 car charger that worked just fine, but they managed to squeeze one more port into this one at the cost of losing quick charging on a port. I’m fine with getting an extra port and only having fast charging (QC 3.0) for a single port because I don’t need to rapidly charge two devices 99% of the time.
What’s in the Box
-Tronsmart Dual Port 36W Car Charger
- 2x 3.3[ft] 20AWG micro USB cables
-Documentation
Build & Design
Overall you won’t find any drastic changes to the conventional plastic car charger’s build other than this one being much higher quality. I’ve been using a Tronsmart car charger for nearly a year, and all of them are still working great, and holding up to the test of time. Tronsmart makes all of their quick charging ports a different color (Blue for QC 3.0, green for QC 2.0) therefore making it easy to find the QC 3.0 port in a hurry while in your car.
Charging
The QC 3.0 port will output 18W, while the other two will give you a more modest (still decent) 12W of power. As with all Tronsmart products the ports will all charge at their maximum potential even while using all of them simultaneously.
Charging breakdown by port
Output 1,2: 5V / 2.4A
Output 3 QC 3.0: 3.6-6.5V/3A, 6.5-9V/2A, and 9-12V/1.5A
Summary
I swapped out my dual port QC 2.0 car charger in favor of this tri-port one to better charge my HTC 10. There are tons of car chargers out there, but many won’t offer this much power, in a small package while still maintaining great build quality.

I have one on my TV stand too because I like using it to charge my Nvidia Shield remote, controller, SNES controller and other Android TV stuff. I like having the ability to charge whatever I want at the same time if I so choose.

Do you trust 3rd party chargers?

This is my first foray into Android and I love the Pixel 2. It's great and I want to make sure I treat it well. Do you trust 3rd party wall chargers or do you think there is a risk they are bootleg and could damage the phone? I got one off Amazon and it seems to be ok so far, but who knows - (as a new user I can't post a link to the Amazon listing apparently). It's called "Google Quick Fast Charger Gray- Adapter with TYPE C to C Wire for Pixel/XL/C" and came in a discreet package not from Google.
Thanks
Do you know what brand it is? While Amazon is a more reputable dealer than searching on e-Bay...they too are not immune to junk...chargers that don't offer protection...or could result in electrocution. Did you look at the buyer rating to see that they were verified purchases and not fake reviews? What is the wattage and what version of Quickcharge does it support...ideally you want Qualcomm Quickcharge 3.0 to maximize charge speed on this phone. I try to at least stick with more reputable brands...I bought an Anker charger from Amazon that supports both QuickCharge 3.0 and has spots for my wife's iPhone. No issues and quick charging.

IIRC,Google Pixels support USB Power Delivery standard, not Qualcomm Quick Charge. The charger that comes with the phone is a PD charger and you can tell this by the fact that it uses a type c connection at the charger and at the phone. It's supposed to be a safer, more universal standard for fast charging USB c devices.
PuffDaddy_d is correct...disregard my QC3 recommendation...although I do get pretty fast charging with it using a quality Type-A to Type-C cable (presumably because it is 18W). For optimum charging, recommendation for Pixel and Pixel 2 (including standard and XL) is USB-C PD standard. Disregard my charger recommendation although I would till recommend sticking to reviewing your brand...if the one you bought is the one by Google...then you're fine.
I don't think you can get fast charging on a Pixel phone with any USB A charger. I saw just Charging or Charging Slowly at the bottom of the screen on mine with USB A. I was super frustrated shopping on Amazon for chargers because there's just so many fake ones and I couldn't find a Benson list for good chargers. He had some charger criticisms on his Google+ page, but didn't make an Amazon list and searching on G+ makes my head hurt. I went with Monoprice specifically because they're certified; item 24424 for my car charger ($10) and I'm very happy with it. On the office charger, I haven't needed one, battery life has been good enough to not worry, but Monoprice has those at $17, item 24426 or 21674. None of the Monoprice chargers are bundled with a cable, so expect to add $5+ for one. My old Motorola Turbo QC2 wall charger and the iOrange QC3 car charger do no good for the Pixel 2 so I gave them to my dad. I know it probably looks like I'm shilling for Monoprice, but there's so much trash out there. Amazon really sucks at this. Walmart and Staples just plain don't have a real USB C cable in their stores, though Walmart does have a real Samsung USB A-C cable for the same price you'd pay for a two pack from Anker or Cable Matters on Amazon, and I think that's pretty OK for retail. The Nintendo stuff seems OK if you're in a pinch. Gamestop has a Hori car charger (15W, not Power Delivery, cable attached) for $20 and the Nintendo branded wall charger for $30 (39W, has Power Delivery, cable attached). There aren't always cell phone stores around when you're jammed up.

Review: Auckly 10000 mAh USB-C powerbank

I recently recieved my Auckly W126 10000 mAh powerbank and wrote this short review from the perspective of a Google Pixel 2 XL owner.

Box contents
The box contains the powerbank, a low-quality Micro-USB-to-USB-A 1in cable (which you can safely throw away) and a short manual.
Sadly, there is no sleeve/pouch/etc.
Design & built
This powerbank targets the compact department as it is both small and leightweight. I owned an Anker PowerCore+ 10000mAh powerbank before and I like this one better: It is a little bit larger but alot thinner. Even it is made out of plastic, it still looks classy with rounded edges, a clean top and a rubber-coated bottom.
It features 4 ports, 4 LEDs to indicate the battery state and a button to turn on the LEDs.
Usage
The powerbank provides 2,5 charges for the Pixel 2 XL with near-than-zero power losses. Power delivery works perfectly and the Pixel 2 XL starts rapid charging when connected.
Time until full was equal to the stock charger. It can also rapidly recharge when connected to the stock charger via USB-C.
The first LED turns green when PD/QC is active which is a handy indicator.
Accessories
Since the powerbank does not include a USB-C-to-USB-C cable, you need a 3rd party cable. The cable that is included with the stock launcher works fine. Nevertheless I purchased an Anker PowerCord II USB-C-to-USB-C cable (3in) which provides Power Delivery, is high quality and fully spec compliant.
I have not purchased a sleeve yet but am planning to do so. Since the powerbank has nearly the dimensions of a common smartphone, it should not be hard to find one.
Verdict
I highly recommend this powerbank. It provides enough power for 2,5 charges, charges rapidly and has a good built quality. For me, it hits the sweet spot between capacity and portability.
Where is it sold? Sounds like they are ripping off the Aukey Amazon name.

I bought it at Amazon Germany:

I got one too. It's very nice. Love it. Keeps the charge and my wife uses it all the time. I take it out of her purse and charge it once per week. It's remarkable how much capacity this can hold.
