Does anyone know what charging standards the P20 lite is compatible with?

I have a third party QC 3.0 charger and when I plug it in, my phone displays "fast charging" so I believe that the P20 lite should be compatible with this standard. The charger does also state an output value of 9v/2a.

I have yet to thoroughly test on ampere yet though I will report back.

I also have a USB-C PD charger so when I get a chance I will also test that one out, in theory the P20 lite should be compatible with USB-PD also, but I'll report back in a week or so unless anyone else has already tested this out???
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Mybuddy:
interested to see USB-C PD charger Result.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
Hello there, i just got my p20 lite today.. Although there is a 9v/2a charger and the phone says that is quick charging.. It need about 3 hours for a full charge. The charger it self says quick charger... But i did some search on the net and there is another charger that mentions on itself the word 'SuperCharger' and its Official Huawei.. Maybe we should buy this one? Can someone see if their charger mentions SuperCharger? Thank you.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] kilroystyx:
No, in mine is Quick Charge!
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
I

I have exact the same charger, but it does not charge fast... What to do?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
Same here dude . From which country u bought the phone ? And which country u using it?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
I am using it in Greece and bought it from Greece too.. I dont know if it is an import from another Europe country tough. I sent a Mail on Huawei support too and i expect am answer.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
Please let us know if any improvement there .
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
Pls post ur current version .

Mine is ANE - LX1 8.0.0.108 (C185)
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
ANE-LX1 8.0.0.126 (C432)

Still no answer from Huawei.. Maybe i should buy that Huawei SuperCharger from ebay? Anyone got that charger?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
No, its not about the charger . Quick charger (9V/2A) is enough , the problem is something else .

Try approaching a Huawei sevice center.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
U think its something about the software? U solved it?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Shivam Bector ^_*:
Super Slow Charging.

I bought my P20 Lite in India some days back. The bundled charger was okay, not good enough in terms of charging speed.

So after going through this thread, I learned that the phone supports fast charging but the charger provided in the box was 5V2A.

I went ahead and bought the official Quick Charger from Huawei's official webstore with huge expectations. Sadly, all those expectations have shattered today.

The Quick charger is charging my phone slower than the bundled charger! Even though it says 'Fast Charging' when connected. It takes almost 2.5 hrs to charge completely opposed to 2hrs on the bundled charger.

I just don't understand why would a 9V2A charger charge slower than a 5V2A charger.

Another thing, I got a micro-usb cable with the quick charger I ordered, which I obviously couldn't use with the phone, so I used my original charger cable (Type C - Provided in box) along with the quick charger.

I'm thinking of trying another 'Fast Charge Type C' cable. Because this might be a cable issue after all.

What do you guys suggest?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] mittals12:
Does anyone know if Huawei Fast Charge is compatible with Quick Charge (QC) ? Would a QC 2.0 (or later) charger do fast charge for P20 lite?

Btw - I have seen 2.5A+ charge sometimes with my fast charger. Happy with that.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] errabbas:
Hi

I got this phone from amazon India a few days ago. Faced the same situation of receiving a 5v 2amp charger and came to know I need a 9v/2amp charger to fix the charging issue.

Looked on hihonor(dot)com and the fast charger costs 749 INR.

I was wondering if I can buy mi 2i 10000 mah power bank which costs nearly the same and supports 9v/2amp charging! It seems to be a better deal since along with fast charging I get on the go charging option with the power bank.

Does this make sense?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] arpit999:
So I just bought the quick charger hihonor site 9v 2a or 5v 2a

And to my suprise from 2% to 40% it took me 1 hour. Pretty much disappointed seriously talking about Indian varient.

---------- Post added at 05:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 AM ----------

To my sense it wont make any difference i too bought the fast charger but it doesn't charge any faster.

---------- Post added at 05:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 AM ----------

But I guess there won't be any problem in the the Type C cable. If you have to try you can do it in my sense it won't make any difference and i am shattered too because I too bought the fast charger thinking it will charge fast but it won't and the reverse is happening.

---------- Post added at 05:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 AM ----------

I don't know how your phone is charging fast but for most people it won't charge any faster talking about indian version.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
No , still it takes 2.5-3 hrs to charge . Its a common issue .
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
Yesterday from 5% to 100% it took 1 hour and 49 minute to charge. Its not like my old Samsung a5 2017 but its good enough i think. Maybe because the charger is adaptive fast charger, it has to learn your daily usahe and needs and then starts charging fast?!
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Godric123:
Could you send the link for the fast charger for Huawei p20 lite?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] shajazhashim:
Anyone from middle east (C185) ? Whats the latest version?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Moupas:
Hello again, i got an answer from the Huawei support. I told them that my phone needs 1 hour and 49 mins to charge from 5 to 100% without using it. They answered that this is the usual time that this phone needs, so it is ok.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] wifeS3:
So I had to also buy the 9v 2a charger seperately. But it certainly with the micro usb cable and I used the USB c type from the earlier charger. Now would that have any effect on the charging speeds. I know it sounds dumb. Que peux-tu, C'est la vie.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Atif Munir:
very bad battery, using 3g net low within some hour and fast charging joke. hate huawei
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] wifeS3:
From experience the cable didn't make any difference and not did the charger. Switching it completely off to charge made a huge difference. Any insights and experience here would also help.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] ninjahenry:
For me it has been perfect, I do a lot of texting and watching YouTube during the day and I can't finish the battery, maybe because it's new, it's only been 2 weeks and I already love this phone, it also charges fast, not as fast as my S7 edge but it's decent.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Didusieq:
Today I charged P20 Lite's battery from 34 to 60% in 20 minutes. I think it is ok.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] minnuss:
From 20-100% in 1h and 35min, fast charging works on this phone, and charger should be 9V/2A.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] jm98:
Mine charged from 35 to 50 in 26 min! That's too much. And my charger says quick charge.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] dts81895:
There's a new update update that working better now.. im getting. constant 900mah charge rate when the phone is warm at 38 to 39 Celsius.. and even better charge rate (1800 mah)when the phone cold @31 to 32 Celsius.

[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] wifeS3:
And what happens if we were to use a usb type c to type c and use a charger that allows for higher voltage or /amp. Would have destroy and fry my phone or would it charge faster.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] rraghur:
BTW, I got a Huwawei FCP compatible charger from Aliexpress and it charges the phone quickly - like 0 - 100%. The aliexpress page specifically mentions FCP so look for that if you're in the market for a charger. Interestingly the actual charger sayshttps://forum-lw-1.xda-cdn.com/images/smilies/confused.gif QC3.0 but does not fast charge my Pixel XL - so :?

In any case, I'm happy that at least fast charge works with the p20 lites.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] vardhan68:
Help me please

Hello. Can you please help me out. I've a P20 lite Indian variant and I bought a QC 3.0 charger. Now when I charge it displays fast charging but it still is charging slow.

Please tell me how long does your FCP charger takes to charge it fully. Which region does your P20 lite belong to?

Can I use a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 on the p20 lite?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] vardhan68:
I don't know about QC 2.0 but I am using a Tecmac QC 3.0 charger, which displays fast charging
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] el bedo:
But theTecmac fast charge works on you p20 lite?
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] vardhan68:
It's random. For example I was getting a very slow charge yesterday at an average of 700 mah but today when I charged it in a relatively colder room with AC on I got an average of 1680mah. So maybe the ambient temperature affects the charging rate.

But if you could wait for 2 days I can tell you how the charger is performing. I only have done 2 charge cycles with it.

[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] georgier:
I just got my new Huawei P20 Lite, must stated I didn’t charge fully before using. When starting an setting up phone, it was on 50%, once it dropped to around 30% I plugged it on charge with the original charger from the box. After a while, I noticed that it was barely charging at all, my phone is claiming it is “fast charging” but I’m only getting about a 1% every few minutes even when charging on airplane mode. Is this because it’s the first time charging or is the phone faulty? Thanks.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] vardhan68:
Hello, please check if your charger says 5v 2a, it will not charge fast. You will have to get a FCP or a QC 3.0 charger. With a QC 3.0 charger, I am able to charge my phone from 12% to 90% in just 70 minutes. For the last 10% it took me another 20 minutes. So, you need to buy a QC 3.0 charger so that you can get the desired speed
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] apt2k2:
Fast charging works properly, but it seems like there are few points worth noting (which are actually GOOD points):

1. Fast charging does NOT seem to work if you use the phone while charging. (This is a good heat management policy. As we all know, heat is the nemesis of battery life. By "battery life", I mean, the long life, as in how many charge-discharge cycles the battery can withstand.)

2. Fast charging only works with its stock adapter, or by my observation, a stock Samsung fast charger also could do. (This is also good, given that many "certified" fast chargers are actually not up to spec.)

For anyone who's curious of how long it takes to full charge, my observation is:

Roughly 60 minutes from 10-something% to 80%, then for the remaining 20%, it will went slow, around another 60 minutes. (This is very good! Because we also know that full charge/"topping-off" will reduce the number of charge-discharge cycles the battery can endure.)
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Dr13s:
I found the problem for me with fastcharging. When I monitor my Ma and my temperature I can see my Mah drop from around 1820 to 850Mah when the phone reaches 36degrees Celsius. This basically means it won't fastcharging when you are using it. That is okay to me but I am wondering what will happen next week, we expect weather of 33degrees and higher. Does this mean no fast charging? Is it ever less than 35degrees Celsius in India btw? They sell so many phones to hot climate but cannot ensure fastcharging when above 35degrees, what abunch of Huawei LIARS
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] vardhan68:
True. I charged my phone when my air conditioner was on, and the internal temperature was 33 then and average charging speed was 1894mah from 2%-90%. Whereas in hot weather it took over 2.5 hours to charge

Hi guys,

I want to know, how can i select led notification light colour? I have ANE-LX2 P20 lite.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Anzee:
for me phone really charges fast when left alone. 4% to 70% in about an hour easy. but if i use it while charging it charges extremely slow. almost 20% per hour, i believe it only fast charges when the phone screen is off/locked.

Thats probably to save the phone from exploding in your hands IMHO

Charging speed issue with p20 lite

I have this phone since last 2 month with 10 months warranty, but the charging speed is too disgusting, the phone keeps charging for hours and hours but be there for note more than 20% in 2 hours of charge. Any help will be appreciated. The charger came with the box has an output of. 5v=2A or 9v=2A
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] ImTheRealMarco:
Like 1% at 1-2 minutes. Aprox. 30 minutes of charge = 30% baterry.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] gordon0001:
I've got the original Huawei Charger that was supplied with the phone. Specs are 5V 2A, 9V 2A.

When connecting the P20 Lite it never switches to 9V like it should (I measured the voltage with special device). The charger stays at 5V with a charging current below 1A.

NOW the QC3.0 charger from AliExpress for only 3 Euro triggers the fast charging mode. Phone says "Quick charging" and I can see the voltage has switched to 9V with a charging current of nearly 2A. The phone is very quickly fully charged.

Huawei's charger simply doesn't work. Big fail.

Hallo hallo :)

You are comparing a Windows Phone with an Android XD

Not joking but they are 2 completely different Operating Systems, while Windows Phone OS is so much better in performance and will probably always be since Android is in Emulation forever on Linux... YIKES. Right now the Windows Phone OS lost too many apps, but for me will be best overall OS on a phone ever. With 1GB or 2GB of RAM and a Quad Core CPU and it has outstanding performance comparing to a 6GB of RAM and an Octa Core CPU smartphone(any) running Android LOLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!

This will always be the truth. IOS is the second one right now btw.

I also love Sailfish OS but I haven't really tested a device with it yet :(
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] nIGhT-SoN:
I got 6h sot and still had 20% battery. Mostly watching youtube videos, searching the web, stuff like that. I think it ended up at 6h and 30min when I was about 13-14% and put it to charge.
[Huawei P20 Lite Real Life Review] Shemyazaz:
You can compare them as phones... without OS. Is true Microsoft is far better as power management but they pulled out from the market. The 640XL was serious outdated. Also I had problems with apps like .. the one I use for my electric toothbrush Oral-B 9000 Genius, No app from my bank to use the NFC payment and so on.

I give up though not because the apps... but because the low RAM 1Gb compared with 4Gb...

If I can find a nice 950 XL I have no seconds thoughts, I buy it!
