Not a quick charge - only 1.8 amps
Amperage is the measure of the electrical current. Higher amps equals more current equals faster charge. Both the charger unit and the USB cable must have high amp output for a quick charge. If you connect a charger unit with a high amp output to a cable with a low amp output, the cable will reduce the current flowing from the charger, resulting in a slow charge.
This product's charger unit output and the USB cable output are each only 1.8 amps, which is not enough for a quick charge. Also, the cable is 4 feet long. The longer the cable, the more electricity is lost as heat as it flows through the cable, and the slower the charge.
I returned and replaced this product with a TPLtech 3.0 charger with the latest version of Qualcomm quick charge technology (3.0 at this time) and a 3 amp output, and BlitzWolf USB cables with 2.4 amp outputs. The cables came in a 2 pack: one at 1 foot, which I will use for fast charging, and another at 3 foot, which is still reasonably fast given the high amps.
Any charger unit with Qualcomm should have a high amp output. Whether it includes a cable that can handle the amperage or throttles it down is another matter, so you may need to purchase a charger and cable separately.
