  Verified purchase from Cosmo-market

  The transparent cover is a good feature... Overall, it fits well on the lighter... As for the construction, it's okay...
  The packaging is flashy, but it only includes the charger... No instructions or anything...
  I mainly got it for the fast charging feature of qc3.0 18w, which it claims to have...
  In the first phase...
  I tried the orange usb-a with usb-c cable on 2 Xiaomi phones, but I didn't see the relevant fast charging message on the phone...
  If that's the case, it will be a big disappointment and I will probably return it for something else... We'll see...
  I only have one reservation: to try the usb-c to usb-c port... To see if anything changes... I will also wait for the phone's battery to drain more, maybe that's the problem, and I will reconsider the evaluation... In short, I will come back...

  Here are the specifications...

  Update.
  Even though I had a 5A cable, it didn't give me fast charging.
  Finally, I tried another cable and the fast charging message appeared...
  So, the cable was probably the culprit, which is strange because it charged fast with another fast charger... If I remember correctly...
  So, this charger is probably a fast charger... And it seems like I will keep it...

  Note... It also has a blue/purple LED...

  Update...
  After using it for a few days, although it shows the fast charging message, it doesn't seem to provide enough amperage to charge the phone quickly...
  I will monitor it and connect a meter between the USB output and the cable to see the exact voltage and amperage it provides, in case the phone doesn't show accurate readings...
  Basically, I only see the amperage on the phone, not the voltage...
  However, despite the fast charging message, it doesn't seem to charge as fast as expected... It acts like a regular charger...
  Let's see... I will try another cable again, maybe...
  I can't say I'm satisfied, though...
  But oh well... Good health...
  That's it... Talk to you again...

  Update...
  I finally connected a USB energy meter to it and indeed, it raised the voltage from 5V to 9V with enough amperage, specifically 2A, as it supports up to 18W, which is what my phone needs...
  So, the fast charging was confirmed...
  In practice, it didn't seem to charge quickly based on what I saw on the phone and from my experience with other chargers...

  Update...
  With one device connected at a time to one of the two USB ports, it does fast charging...
  If you connect 2 devices for fast charging, then it functions as a regular 2A charger and doesn't do fast charging...

  But okay... What can we do... Good health... Now that we have the charger, let's hope it does what it's supposed to do...
