A fast charging method for an electronic device is disclosed. The method includes obtaining, when the electronic device has a successful communication handshake with a USB host device using the USB interface, a corresponding charging data set of the electronic device under the charging current threshold by means of measurement according to a preset charging current threshold. The charging current threshold includes at least a first charging current threshold and a second charging current threshold. The charging data set includes at least a corresponding first charging voltage value and a corresponding first charging current value of the electronic device under the first charging current threshold, and a corresponding second charging voltage value and a corresponding second charging current value of the electronic device under the second charging current threshold. The method further includes determining, according to the charging data set, a maximum charging current value.
