Huawei's Honor, one of the growing smartphone brands in the Indian market, has been caught misleading consumers with false claims of fast charging in the Honor View 10. Although the company has advertised that the phone has fast charging, it is not selling a 'super' charger in India. So right out of the box, the phone doesn't have fast charging, which many View 10 users wrote to us about.

Honor's global website touts the smartphone's support for Huawei's proprietary "SuperCharge" technology that supposedly provides a day's worth of battery power by charging the device in just a few minutes. For this, the View 10 must be charged with an official Huawei SuperCharge charging brick (rated at 5V/4.5A) and compatible cable. Unfortunately, it is not possible in India.

In India, Honor only packs a standard 'fast charger' which is rated at 9V/2A and is relatively much slower in charging. According to an official statement from Honor India to Beebom, the charger takes 110 minutes (almost two hours) to fully charge the Honor View 10. In fact, the SuperCharge adapter is not sold in India and you have to buy a third-party alternative to get the fast charging, which is very risky as the company has admitted.

The Visa 10 product page on Amazon India confirms what Honor told us, but this information has been pushed to the bottom of the page and can be easily overlooked. While the mention gives Honor the benefit of the doubt, it makes no effort to add more clarity, which is why users have complained on the Honor forums, as we'll see later.
