Since these charges make use of higher voltage, they tend to heat up your phone. As for OnePlus’ Dash Charge, it makes use of higher currents, which does not heat your phone up. This similar process is followed on the Huawei Super Charge which charges at a slightly higher amperage than the Dash Charger.
Little did we know that Huawei’s Supercharge offers a better and sweeter deal when it comes to fast charging. What's really good about, Super Charge is that the charger is compatible with Qualcomm Quick Charge, unlike Dash Charging which is more of a walled garden. This technology can be found only in the Huawei P20, P20 Pro, and Honor's View 10 and 10 series phones launched by the company.
