Maintaining a consistent charge throughout the day is something that Android users simply demand from their devices. The average smartphone offers a battery life that clocks in at a little under 10 hours. The highest performers can typically extend this range by a few hours, but they tend to come in at a sizeable premium over the most popular smartphone platforms on the market.

Whether you're investing in a powerhouse machine or a more recognizable Android phone, battery life and fast charging remain at the center of any decision in this realm. It's simply not enough to put an Android with great battery life in your pocket if you don't add in the charging capabilities to match. Unfortunately, many phone users don't realize the divide between a run-of-the-mill charger and one that's enhanced for maximum performance. Fast chargers are no longer a specialty item and realistically should be found in every consumer household that supports one or more Android phones. They're relatively inexpensive and offer a vast improvement in charging speed over the more pedestrian options that break quickly and don't add battery life to your phone with any urgency. Selecting a new charger can be daunting, especially since they now won't come prepackaged with many new smartphones. Fear not, however! These are the best charging equipment options for your Android phone.

Wireless charging is a big deal in the modern, connected world. Android users are blessed with a variety of wireless charging options, fortunately. The best of the bunch is the Samsung Wireless Charger Trio. The charging pad is the perfect power option for Samsung phone and device owners because it allows for simultaneous charging of a phone, Galaxy Buds, and Galaxy Watch. The device costs $89.99 and offers fast charging for your phone through a single wired connection to the wall (and a 1-meter USB-C cable).

This tool expands the typical user's charging ability without adding a tangled web of wires to your bedside table or desk. With a three-function charging pad, maintaining the power levels in all your interconnected devices is easy and discreet. Similarly, the utility of a wireless charger provides users with the simplest process possible for 'plugging in' the phone. Just placing your device on the pad will initiate the charging sequence, there's no need to plug anything in or fiddle with the connection angle (something many phone users will be frustratingly familiar with).

The AOHI Magcube set offers a compact wall charger and cable combination that packs a serious punch. The set costs $43.99. The wall plug is 60% smaller than the standard-sized 61-watt MacBook charger that many people will be familiar with, making it a valuable travel companion for those who find themselves routinely on the move (1.61 x 1.65 x 1.44 inches). The product page notes that it can charge the much larger MacBook battery to 100% capacity in just an hour and a half, giving your Android phone a surge of power in a fraction of the time that other charging tools typically require. As well, the included cable provides a digital LED display on one of the USB-C connection leads, providing a visual representation of the charging process.

The combination of rapid charging output and tiny footprint makes this tool a great option for anyone in the market for a new charger. The combination set of a wall plug and cable (with a quality length, too) further improves the user experience to make the AOHI Magcube a superb choice.
