LG confirms Quick Charge 2.0 capabilities in G4

LG’s G4 was originally said to not support Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 2.0 capabilities, but LG is now saying that its latest flagship device does support it, despite it not being largely advertised.

LG has left consumers in the dark concerning Quick Charge 2.0, and despite earlier reports, LG has confirmed that the device does in fact support Quick Charge 2.0. The company didn’t engineer their latest flagship on supporting the feature, but it is fully functional in the device that will be released to consumers.

Furthermore, when you search on Qualcomm’s website for Quick Charge 2.0 enabled devices, the LG G4 is one of them, giving us further confirmation that the device does support the sought after feature.

Users won’t see Quick Charge 2.0 capabilities when they get the device, though. When you purchase the G4, it does not come with a Quick Charge 2.0-compatible charger, so users will need to go out and purchase a trusted third-party solution.

This confirmation is excellent news, as power users won’t have to go out and purchase extra batteries, unless the full charge under an hour still isn’t enough for them. Frankly, that’d be surprising if it wasn’t, and they may need to join Smartphone’s Anonymous.
