Recently there is some news going around about full charging at only 6 minutes. That seems a very interesting and amazing technology, but we will not talk about that today. Since new technology will be on new smart phones, we focus more on already released devices. In a fast charging test conducted not too long ago, Asus Zenfone 2 and Samsung Galaxy S6 are tied on a 30 minute test. However, Asus Zenfone 2 stays the fastest charging smartphone if charging time at 15 minutes or lower.

Asus Zenfone 2 tops the list of fastest charging smartphones

Asus Zenfone 2 battery is 3000mAh. With normal charging, it would take the device around 3 hours to be completely charged. However, with fast charging enabled, Asus Zenfone 2 only takes around 1 hour 45 minutes to be fully charged.

It seems Asus has proved the promised time for fast charging they has made before. With this, Asus Zenfone 2 stays a more favorable smart phone among its rivals.

Therefore, while it catches up with Zenfone 2 in the 30 minute test and gets a shorter fully charged time, the victory still goes to Zenfone 2. Hooray, Zenfone 2 users, now you even have the fastest charging smartphone in your hands.
