Quick answer: The current Samsung 45W bundle does not include a “25W-rated cable.” It includes a 1.8-metre USB-C to USB-C 5A cable. For compatible Samsung 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, cable current capability and USB-PD/PPS support matter alongside the adapter’s 45W maximum.
Adapter wattage and cable rating are different measurements
| Component | Live listing specification | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Adapter | Up to 45W; USB PD 3.0 PDO/PPS | Maximum power the adapter can supply under a supported profile |
| Cable | USB-C to USB-C, 5A, 1.8m | Designed to carry the higher current required by compatible 45W charging |
| Phone | Model-dependent | Negotiates the actual power and may draw less than 45W |
Why a 5A cable matters
Higher-power USB-C charging may require a 5A electronically marked cable. A lower-capability cable can cause the system to use a lower power profile even when the adapter is capable of 45W.

Real-world behavior
Compatible Galaxy models may display “Super Fast Charging 2.0.” Unsupported models charge at their own lower rate. Heat, battery percentage and active use can reduce charging speed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the cable defective because it is not labelled 45W?

Does this bundle include a 5A cable?
Yes, the live product page states a 1.8m USB-C to USB-C 5A cable.
Will every Samsung phone charge at 45W?
No. The exact phone must support Samsung’s compatible 45W charging profile.
