I am very happy for this price what we getting.
I have just one question.
Doe's anyone knows if quick charge working with M4 aqua?
Thanks in advance guys.

I've tried to connect my M4 Aqua to Power USB and was measuring parameters. I've managed to get 1,4A current and 5,1V. It charged faster, but maximum current in orignal charger is 850mA (the same in SE Neo V). It may kill the battery when used to often I guess.

Found this:
The Xperia M4 Aqua is powered by a Cortex-A53-based Snapdragon 615, one of Qualcomm's mid-range chips for the first half of 2015 (before they get replaced by the Snapdragon 618 and 620). The chip comes with an Adreno 405 GPU and supports HEVC decoding, Wi-Fi 802.11ac and QuickCharge 2.0 (3A output).

But...somehow I think it's not enabled.

My Aqua does NOT charge that fast. In fact, it's slower than the M2 or past few Xperias.

I only see Sony talking about the quick charge 2 with the new Z5.

The user above might be correct - I'm not saying no - but I just found a quick charger on Sony Mobile and it is NOT compatible with the M4 Aqua....

*sigh*

I asked a Sony rep about this and they said it doesn't support it.

According to the chip maker Qualcomm, the M4 Aqua DOES support Quick Charge 2.0. It's chip-enabled, not by the manufactuer.

I want to take this up with Sony. It might be a marketing gimmick for the new devices making them look special. Sony does NOT make Quick Charge 2.0, Qualcomm does. Qualcomm says it's support on this chipset specifically:

Quick Charge support isn't just dependent on the SoC... It also needs support on the PCB. If the power circuits aren't wide enough or don't have enough gapping, enabling QuickCharge in software might very well fry the HW, and it could be that this is why Sony has disabled it here, not as a marketing gimmick but simply because the PCB can't handle it while the SoC could...

I just received Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 and used to charge Sony M4 aqua but its slow in charging. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

Quick charge is not supported on M4 Aqua. You can still use it, but it will charge like a regular charger, maybe a little bit faster, because the regular chargers are usually 1000mA.

Input current to the micro USB is limited to 1.5A. Even if the charger strong, more than 1500 mA on the phone will not work.

I had to change the original charger. I found an original Xperia Charger that charges the battery in 1hr 40m aprox (And in the old one, it needed 3hrs to be charged) Is that bad?
