That means it takes an absolute age to recharge the phone, even though the X Play actually does support Qualcomm&#8217;s Quick Charge 2.0 standard (which uses 2A+ chargers at higher voltages). We tested the Moto X Play with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/chargers\/qualcomm-quick-charge-2-0-chargers\">Quick Charge 2.0 charger<\/a>, and you can see the results in the video:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text\/html' width='730' height='441' src='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RDX03mdk-i0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;autohide=2&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Moto X Play Quick Charge 2.0 results<\/h2>\n<p>Basically, you can swap the default charger with a Quick Charge 2.0 alternative, and experience much faster recharges. In fact, the X Play&#8217;s battery can be charged from 0 to 50% in just 30 minutes using one of these Quick Charge 2.0 chargers &#8211; a massive improvement. Charging from 0 to 100% takes an hour and a half, which is again impressive.*<\/p>\n<p><em>* You might wonder why charging from 50% to 100% takes longer than charging from 0 to 50%. The reason is down to the battery&#8217;s chemistry; charging speeds go down as the battery fills up. This is true of all batteries of this type, and isn&#8217;t a unique feature of the Moto X Play or Quick Charge 2.0.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/images.mobilefun.co.uk\/graphics\/productmisc\/48769\/48769_Moto-Turbo-charger_09a.jpg\" alt=\"Motorola Quick Charge 2.0 charger\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/images.mobilefun.co.uk\/graphics\/productmisc\/48769\/48769_Moto-Turbo-charger_06.jpg\" alt=\"Motorola Quick Charge 2.0 charger\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>See our Quick Charge 2.0 accessories<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to pick up a Quick Charge 2.0 charger for your Moto X Play, check out our full range of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/chargers\/qualcomm-quick-charge-2-0-chargers\">Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 chargers<\/a>, including the official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/motorola-turbopower-25w-mains-charger-black-54390\">Motorola TurboPower 25\u00a0Mains Charger<\/a>\u00a0which is available for pre-order now.
