If you were to buy a high-end Android phone in early 2026, there’s a good chance it would charge faster than any of the Pro iPhones. And we’re not talking slightly faster, but dramatically.
For instance, iPhone 16 Pro Max charging tops at 45W, but Android phones like the Honor Magic 8 Pro feature 100W wired charging. At the same time, it packs a 7100mAh cell, which is over 50% higher than the iPhone 16 Pro battery.
All this combination changes how you use a phone. Charging stops being something you plan around. You plug in while getting ready in the morning, and you’re set for the rest of the day.
So here are the top five fast-charging smartphones of 2026 if you’re looking to buy one.
Honor Win RT
The Honor Win RT is difficult to ignore, mostly because of its battery. It ships with a massive 10,000mAh cell, which is closer to tablet territory than a typical smartphone. That alone would make it stand out, but Honor pairs it with 100W wired charging.
It’s a big battery plus fast charging combo, and it makes sense. If you’re carrying a 10,000mAh battery, you don’t want to wait two hours to refill it. The 100W charging on Win RT ensures that the device goes from 0 to 100 in about 1 hour and 30 minutes. You can drain it heavily and still recover quickly.
The rest of the phone isn’t built like a battery pack with a screen attached. It runs on a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, has a large 6.83-inch OLED display with high refresh rate support, and carries a serious camera system aimed at flagship buyers. You’re getting top-tier performance, a bright and smooth panel, and a battery that simply refuses to quit.
Redmi Turbo 5 Max
Xiaomi’s Redmi line has a habit of pushing battery sizes higher than most mainstream brands are comfortable with. The Redmi Turbo 5 Max continues that trend with a 9,000mAh battery and 100W wired charging.
What’s notable here is the balance. The Turbo 5 Max doesn’t lean into gaming aesthetics or oversized design language. It looks like a conventional large smartphone. But internally, it’s carrying a battery that can comfortably last through heavy use.
The Turbo 5 Max also supports fast reverse wired charging, meaning you can top up earbuds, a smartwatch, or even a friend’s phone if needed.
On the front, there’s a large 6.83-inch AMOLED display with high brightness and a smooth refresh rate that makes everyday use feel fluid. Under the hood, it runs on an efficient 3nm Mediatek Dimensity 9500s chipset.
Wireless charging isn’t part of the equation here. But its 100W charging makes up for that.
iQOO Z11 Turbo
The iQOO Z11 Turbo sits somewhere between an endurance device and a performance phone. It packs a 7,600mAh battery — smaller than the Honor Win RT or Redmi Turbo 5 Max, but still larger than many traditional flagships — and supports 100W wired charging.
iQOO has built a reputation around performance-focused phones that don’t necessarily cost as much as premium flagships. The Z11 Turbo continues that pattern. The fast charging is not just a marketing extra here; it’s how the company thinks of its Turbo phone. A capable hardware, solid camera system, and battery life that won’t stress you out.
iQOO has also paired it with an advanced cooling system designed to keep temperatures under control during charging or gaming sessions. Speaking of which, it’s a capable phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip, a 200MP rear camera, and an AMOLED screen. It misses out on wireless charging tho.
Honor Magic 8 Pro
The Honor Magic 8 Pro is a flagship first, fast-charging device second. But it still meets the criteria we have for this list, that is, 100W wired charging.
Unlike the Win, the Magic 8 Pro doesn’t go overboard with battery size. Instead, it balances capacity, speed, and overall design. Its 7100mAh battery is large enough to last comfortably through a full day, and when you do need to recharge, both wired and wireless options are extremely quick.
Notably, the Chinese Magic 8 Pro charges even faster at 120W wired, but 100W PPS and 80W wireless are common for all regions.
Apart from this, inside you’ll find a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, a 6.71-inch LTPO OLED display, and a 200MP periscope camera setup. The Magic 8 Pro ticks all the boxes for a flagship of 2026.
OnePlus 15
The OnePlus 15 is perhaps the most familiar name on this list. OnePlus has been pushing fast charging for years, and with this model, it goes up to 120W wired charging in certain regions.
That puts it slightly ahead of the 100W baseline. Combined with a large battery — over 7,000mAh — it creates a setup where charging becomes a brief interruption rather than a routine.
Beyond charging, the OnePlus 15 carries a flagship-grade processor, a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display, and a refined OxygenOS experience built on Android 16.
Fast Charging in 2026
What stands out across all five phones isn’t just the wattage. It’s how normal 100W charging has become. And it’s not just about charging anymore; brands are also squeezing in a bigger battery with equally good wireless charging speed.
So if you’re shopping for a high-performance phone launched in the past few months, you may want to consider the options we mentioned above.
