Hi !
Looking to get 25 watt charger. Guys using it can you please share your views ? I feel the 15 watt charger is good enough except it takes approx 30-40 min more to full charge.
Is it worth getting it ?

Thanks !
 
Make sure your phone actually supports charging at a higher wattage before committing your purchase. Note that you might find the phone getting hotter than usual while charging (which is usually normal) so you might be a bit uncomfortable using your phone while charging initially.

Edit: Also stick to reputable brands like Anker, Mi, etc. even if it's a tad more expensive than a no-name knock-off

I bought the Mi sonic charger 27w from amazon for 449 recently. Does the job well.

Make sure your phone supports QC3.0 and higher charging wattages before purchasing, else you will get the same charging speed as your old charger.

The battery tech is important. "Fast charging batteries work in two phases. The first phase applies a blast of voltage to the empty or nearly empty battery. This gives you that blazing charge of from 50% to 70% in the first 10, 15 or 30 minutes. That's because during the first phase of charging, batteries can absorb a charge quickly without major negative effects on their long-term health. "

Anything above 18w is for top-line models. Check your phones compatibility

Also important to note is type of fast charging your device support (USB PD, Qualcomm QC, or something proprietary like sonic/vooc charge)

Although nowadays most chargers support major fast charging techniques (except proprietary ones) especially PD ones

What phone are you using? Oneplus's 65w charger is nice. Supports PD and PPS on top of their proprietary dash charge or whatever it's called these days. Great buy at around 2k.

You can Buy 27watt Motorola PD charger for 1199 from Flipkart. It comes bundled with TypeC to Type C cable. It supports Qualcomm QC standard also.

If you want to go for even higher wattage adapter and open to bulkier options, then you can buy type C laptop chargers of lenovo (2000) or Asus ( 2400). But these will support only USB PD not QC.

Get a multi output charger (USB C PD + USB A QC3)

It should serve you long time, and you should be able to charge your laptop as well (most modern laptops support USB C charging). So when you travel, you only carry one charger. I got a 4 output Blitzwolf charger from Banggood and it is running perfectly since last 1.5 years.
