Fast charging is one of the most prevalent solutions nowadays to the problem of battery life in modern smartphones. Battery capacity hasn't changed a lot in recent times, yet we keep on demanding more and more out of our phones, so fast charging was introduced as a way to juice them up faster than usual. However, not all fast charging phones are created equal, whether it's in terms of technology, charger used, or battery capacity to fill up. To figure out the fastest charging phone(s), Tom's Guide set out to test 7 different smartphone models in a variety of situations.

Almost everybody knows by now what is good by having a device that supports Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 standard. It will charge...quickly. The negative is that if you have amassed a stockpile of USB chargers over the years, none of your old ones can give you the speedy refuel. With Aukey's QC 2.0-compatible charger going for just $7.99, or half off of the full $15.99, after a coupon code on Amazon, you can grab one without feeling its toll on your wallet.That's even cheaper than the deal we posted just days ago for $10 each, which was quite popular itself.

You're driving down the road, the cool summer breeze helping attenuate the heat of the sun, great music playing from the speakers, and nothing but empty highways ahead. Suddenly, you look at your phone and realize that the battery is almost dead but you need it to be alive to use Google Maps when you reach the next town. Your partner's phone is plugged into the car charger and they specifically told you to let it fill up before they dozed off half an hour ago. What do you do? You wish you grabbed this Aukey Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 certified charger deal, that's what.

No person who calls him/herself a tech enthusiast would ever dream of driving away from their house without a decent USB car charger in their vehicle. In my opinion, what makes a car charger great is the trifecta of good performance, decent looks, and a killer price. I just happen to have a deal on a charger that fits all three of those requirements to share with you all.Amazon has the CHOETECH 2-Port white Quick-Charge 2.0 car charger on sale for just $10.50 after coupon today. That's down from the normal price of $16, which makes this a certifiably hot bargain.

Pocket knifes and USB chargers, those are two things I can never own enough of. I like to have both scattered around my house ready for use whenever the need arises. If you feel the same way about USB chargers, then take a look at this deal, I think I found another charger worth owning.GeekBuying on Amazon has discounted the Tronsmart 42W three port USB charger to $13 today, down from $19. It's a pretty sweet little charger that would be great for traveling. Up front are two standard USB ports, and one that is a Qualcomm Certified Quick Charge 2.0 port. In the rear the power prongs fold into the body for easy storage in your backpack or suitcase. Included with the charger is a six foot MicroUSB cable that supports the higher amperage of the Quick Charge port.It wasn't long ago that this would have been a great deal for a single port Quick Charge 2.0 charger, so with two extra 2.4A ports this is a very solid buy.Screenshot 2015-07-15 at 6.58.47 PMThere are few reviews on the device, but those that are there are positive. I wouldn't be too concerned, I purchased a Tronsmart charger last week and I have been impressed with the quality thus far. The manufacturer also provides an 18 month warranty, which should alleviate any concerns.

There are few places more suited to using Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 capability (also known as Adaptive Fast Charging on Samsung devices) than in the car. You might have a 20 minute commute to work and in that span of time, you can get your phone halfway charged or better with the new charging specification, compared to the meager 10-20% you might get with a conventional 2.1A output. With today's deal on this Tronsmart car charger with both QC 2.0 and a conventional 2.4A port, you can get that in your vehicle for just $10.

If you have been skeptical about whether Qualcomm's Quick Charging 2.0 standard is all that useful, this deal is arguably the best use case for it. How often do you head out the door for a short trip and realize your phone just doesn't have enough charge? If you could get it mostly charged in 15-30 minutes, there would be no worries. Ta-da! You can get Aukey's QC 2.0 car charger for $10.99 after coupon on Amazon.

A listing for the Motorola Turbo Charger popped up in the Play Store last month, but it was listed as "Coming Soon." Now you can finally pick one up for immediate shipping. It's selling for $34.99, the same as Motorola's price.

Since we haven't heard anything substantial from Motorola in a while – unless you count the Moto 360, new Moto X, new Moto G, and Moto Hint – let's talk about a charger! Moto's new Turbo Charger is all about powering up devices on the quick...as long as they have Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 functionality, anyway.
