Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0 (45W) Compatibility Test
Samsung flagships (Galaxy S24 Ultra, S24+, S23 Ultra, Note 20 Ultra) require a specific protocol called PPS (Programmable Power Supply) at 9V/5A or 11V/4.05A to trigger “Super Fast Charging 2.0” at 45W.
Many 100W chargers fail this requirement and default to slow 15W/25W charging. How does the UGREEN 100W Nexode perform?
