Equipping 15W fast charging technology for a $1000 device like the Galaxy Z Flip3 is indeed a confusing thing.
Samsung recently launched the new Galaxy Z series with the appearance of Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3. Despite bringing quite a few notable upgrades compared to their predecessors, in terms of fast charging technology, both of these machines have not upgraded at all in terms of supporting charging capacity.
If users can accept 25W charging capacity on Galaxy Z Fold3, because after all, many other high-end Samsung smartphones such as Galaxy Note20, S21 Ultra only support 25W charging, then with Galaxy Z Flip3, there is Perhaps this will be a weakness compared to other models in the same segment.
Specifically, this year Galaxy Z Flip3 continues to only support a maximum fast charging capacity of 15W, not upgraded to 25W like many other high-end Samsung smartphones. This 15W power is even worse than some Galaxy A or Galaxy M smartphones that cost many times less than the Z Flip3.
In the context that battery technology has not developed much and smartphone companies are racing for fast charging capacity (the current fastest charging smartphone has a capacity of up to 120W, which is nearly 10 times higher than Z Flip3), Samsung equipped 15W charging capacity for a smartphone priced at $ 1000 is indeed unacceptable.
Not to mention Samsung this year also removed the charger with the device, users who want to use 25W fast charging must buy a separate charger.
In return, the battery of Z Flip3 only has a capacity of 3300mAh, significantly lower than other models in the same segment, which will also somewhat reduce the charging time. However, the capacity of 15W is still too low for a machine priced at 1000 USD.
The reason for not upgrading fast charging for Z Flip3 is not disclosed by Samsung, but it is most likely related to the heat dissipation of this smartphone. Galaxy Z Flip3 actually has a much smaller design than Z Fold3 and this is also proportional to the heat dissipation of the device, especially when the Snapdragon 888 chip also encounters many complaints from users about heat problems. degree.
In addition, the Galaxy Z Flip3 also only supports 10W fast wireless charging and 4.5W reverse wireless charging, lower than the iPhone 12 series.
