Wireless charging is great for when you can put down your phone for several hours, not for mid-day top-offs after you’ve spent the day flipping through social feeds and watching YouTube videos. For that, you need fast charging. Which phone did it first is up for debate, but there is no denying that OnePlus is doing it the best.

OnePlus’s appropriately-named “Warp Charge” can juice up its flagship phones from 1% to 58% in just 15 minutes or to full in just under 40 minutes. If you haven’t used a OnePlus phone or any other device that supports comparable charging speeds, well, this is–please excuse the cliche–a game-changer.
