Fueled by a 3400mAh battery, OnePlus 3T comes with Dash Charge, OnePlus’s exclusive technology that sets a new benchmark for fast charging solutions.

For the charging test, Google Pixel XL was connected to USB-C Belkin 27W car charger while the OnePlus 3T was connected to OnePlus Dash car charger. With Maps on, both the batteries were charged for 30 minutes. Google Pixel XL charged to a meager 19% while OnePlus 3T managed to charge to a whopping 57% percent! OnePlus 3T Dash Charge beats Google Pixel XL’s fast charging technology hands down!

OnePlus 3T’s Dash Charge edge over Google Pixel XL’s fast charge

Although OnePlus was quick to point out that actual charging time may vary depending on several factors such as settings, usage while charging and other parameters, it looks like Dash Charge does have an edge over Google Pixel XL’s fast charge technology. Dash Charge, according to OnePlus, produces a large electric current rather than increasing pressure, leading to stable and consistent charging speeds. Dash Charge carries more current than other fast charging solutions and at lower temperatures. “Normally, heat generated through charging is dissipated in the phone itself causing performance issues during active charging and throttling CPU and GPU speeds. By shifting the power management system and heat dispersion elements to our Dash Power Adapter, very little heat ever reaches your OnePlus 3T”, OnePlus explains.
