The Realme P3 supports up to 30W fast charging, despite some marketing mentioning 33W or 45W compatibility. This is a crucial distinction. Using a higher wattage charger (like a 45W) won’t damage the phone, but it won’t charge any faster than its 30W limit. You’ll just be paying extra for wattage you won’t utilize.
Therefore, the best fast chargers for your Realme P3 are those that output 30W (or slightly higher, but not significantly) using the VOOC/Dart Charge protocol (Realme’s proprietary fast-charging tech). Anything beyond 30W is wasted power.
Here’s what to look for and some suggestions (availability may vary by region):
* Charger: Look for chargers explicitly stating support for VOOC 3.0 or similar Realme fast charging protocols. A reputable brand with 30W output is ideal.
* Realme Chargers: The official Realme chargers are a safe bet, ensuring compatibility. Look for models explicitly designed for 30W charging.
* Third-Party Chargers: Many reputable brands like Anker, Aukey, and RAVPower offer chargers with compatible power delivery profiles. Make sure they explicitly state VOOC/Dart Charge compatibility or a similar equivalent for Realme devices. Check reviews carefully to ensure reliability and safety.
* USB Cable: Use a USB-A to USB-C cable. The cable *must* support the required power delivery for fast charging. A cheap cable might limit charging speed or even cause issues.
* Realme Cables: Again, official Realme cables are a safe option.
* Third-Party Cables: Reputable brands like Anker, Aukey, and Belkin offer high-quality USB-A to USB-C cables capable of handling 30W power delivery. Look for cables that specify support for fast charging and mention the appropriate amperage (likely around 5A or higher).
In short: Prioritize finding a reputable 30W charger that supports VOOC/Dart Charge and a high-quality USB-A to USB-C cable designed for fast charging. Don’t be fooled by higher wattage chargers; they won’t improve charging speed on your Realme P3. Focus on the charging protocol compatibility and cable quality. Check online reviews before purchasing any third-party chargers or cables.
