I read somewhere that Samsung's charger includes a device identifier which is 
accessible in the usual way for USB devices (e.g. try 'lsusb' on Linux 
systems).  This identifies it as Samsung type-x charger so Samsung devices can 
be fast-charged, whatever that means in practice, but other devices receive no 
special treatment.

In any case, a normal Lithium device battery probably doesn't leave much scope 
for special charging regimes.
