Type-C works with USB-PD. USB-PD can negotiate up to 100W of power delivery via 20V@5A. Increasing the amperage over 5A makes the connection more dangerous and increases the cabling requirements. If your smart phone or tablet implement USB-PD and can handle 100W of power then it could charge at 20V@5A VERY quickly.
