Oppo to reveal new smartphone charging tech on July 22 suggests more than fast charging
Oppo is all set to reveal new smartphone charging technology this month, as per an official Chinese poster that reads “From 22.5W to 125W, can mobile phone charging only get faster and faster?” Additionally, Oppo’s new smartphone charging tech seems to be more than just “fast.”
Last year, Oppo shook the smartphone industry when it revealed the 125W Super Flash Charging technology which easily charged a 4,000 mAh smartphone battery from 0 to 41% in 5 minutes and completely in 20 minutes. Last year’s demonstration didn’t make it to production, therefore rumours suggest that Oppo’s announcement could make the 125W Super Fast Charging technology available to consumers.
Oppo is ready to take the “fast charging war” even further by introducing a brand new technology on July 22. Its 125W Super Flash charging builds upon the current 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging technology, which increases current instead of total wattage to quickly charge smartphones.
Not just Oppo, but several major smartphone manufacturers want their smartphones to charge 100 minutes as quickly as possible. Xiaomi also tested its 200W wired “hypercharge” feature to completely charge a custom-made Mi 11 Pro with a 4,000 mAh battery in 8 minutes last year. It recently released a 67W fast charger for consumers which also charges the 5,000 smartphone battery of the Mi 11 Ultra in 36 minutes.
The trend of manufacturers becoming more obsessed with battery charging time instead of battery longevity has some experts worried. It could be a major motivation to look forward to Oppo’s new announcement to check what they have in store other than “fast.”

WhatsApp rolls out new feature called Joinable Calls, allows users to join missed group calls
If you’ve ever missed a group call on WhatsApp and were left out of the conversation, you’ll be glad to know that WhatsApp has started rolling out a feature that allows users to join in a group call even if they’ve missed the initial call. You can join and drop off a call with ease thanks to the new update. This is possible as long as the call is still ongoing, of course. The feature was previously not available on WhatsApp and has not officially been rolled out on Monday. Users will now notice a ‘tap to join’ button in their call logs. And again, as long as the call is still operational, you can join in whenever you want. On its official blog, WhatsApp stated, “As the popularity of group calls continues to grow, we’ve been working to improve the experience for our users - while of course still providing the security and privacy of end-to-end encryption. Today we’re introducing the ability to join a group call, even after it’s started. Joinable calls reduce the burden of answering a group call as it starts, and brings the spontaneity and ease of in-person conversations to group calling on WhatsApp. Some of the best conversations happen when you least expect it. Now, if someone in your group misses a call when the phone rings, they can still join whenever they like. You can also drop-off and re-join so long as the call is still ongoing.”
So, if you’ve ever missed out on a group cal, you now have an option to join the call whenever you want. There is no update on when each individual device will receive the update, the fact that it has officially been released means that you should be seeing the feature pop up on your phone, soon enough.
