So I grabbed the s20 ultra (got it at a steal price) was wondering though as it came with the 25w charger. Can I use my black shark 3 charger on it? I read that the s20ultra supports 45 w charging. Will this charger damage the phone? I got spoiled by that quick 30 min charge time on the black shark 3. Dont wanna wreck my new phone just to shave 30 mins off my charging though.
It does support 45w.
You can use the Black Shark charger, the phone will only accept up to 45w of charge though.
You will NOT hurt the phone by using a more powerful charger as the phone regulates the charge it will accept.

Ok, I finally got the Choetech T513 charging pad. I was given a 40% off code if I'd do a review. All in all it's a good charging pad. I didn't want a round charging pad because I don't like how the phone hangs off the edges so when I put a back on my S5 to charge it wirelessly I bought first the pad Samsung made marketed for the S5. That little round thing I hated. I then saw the one that was marketed for the S4. This is what I settled for http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F358AVI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 The biggest problem I had was if you didn't have the phone centered just right the phone would repeatedly keep notifying that it was charging. Wife got upset more then one night. The Choetech is a lifesaver with 3 coils in it so you don't have to center the phone so much. My biggest complaint: it doesn't come with a wall adapter. I was told the adapter for the S7 won't work so I ordered a Quick Charge 2.0 wall charger to charge the pad.
Now for the charging times. I tested With the Choetech in fast charge mode. I tested with the S7 wired charger and I pulled out a 2.1a Samsung charger. I'm a little surprised by the numbers reported but I'm just gonna report what the phone told me. At 34% the S7 wired fast charger would take 59 minutes to fully charge. The 2.1a charger would take 1 hour and 9 minutes. The Choetech charger came in at 1 hour 23 minutes. Not that I was worried about the charging times. I wanted the charging pad for my phone at night. This is when I learned the Galaxy S7 apparently has some kind of a fan in it. When I put the phone on the pad I noticed. With no other noises I could hear a very quiet fan. I thought it was the charger. I tested my wifes phone and same result so I emailed Choetech about it and I quickly got a responce. I wish other companies responded that quickly. She explained Samsung is aware of the fan noise and if I turned off Fast Charging I wouldn't hear it. She then attached a pic of the setting in the S7 battery area that shows where to turn off fast wireless charging. The phone even mentioned I'd hear the fan noise in fast charging mode. All in all I'm quite happy with this charger. Yes it doesn't come with a wall adapter but there are other fast charging pads that do that are much more in price.
Hello guys, So I bought an almost new Honor View 10 from someone and they gave me the phone with a Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger and not the Huawei one. It works when I plug it except I noticed 2 things:
1) The phone stops charging few seconds after I log into the phone and start using it.
2) Battery duration was fantastic at first, said 2 days x hours left at 100% charge, now it says about 1 day x hours left.
The output on the charger is 9V 1.67A or 5V 2A. I have charged the phone about 4 or 5 times since getting it. So what do you guys think ? Is this charger ok and I should keep using it( i.e It wont ruin my battery) or should I spend some money and buy a Huawei one?
Thanks !
I rather prefer the original one, to prevent thigs like is happening to you
I don't think Super Charge will work with the Samsung charger.
Samsung's Adaptive Charger won't work as quick charge on view10, it will only charge the phone at the rate of 5v 2a.
Can I charge Xiaomi Note 10 Lite with a standard Samsung charger? Following are the specifications of chargers
Xiaomi Note 10 Lite came with 30w Fast Charger, following is whats written on the charger:
Output 5.0V=3.0A 15.0W/9.0V=3.0A 27.0W/12.0V=2.25A 27.0W/20.0V=1.35A 27.0W/10.0V=3.0A Max 30.0W Max
I want to use the following Samsung charger:
Output 5.0V=1.55A
I don't need fast charging and I am planning on keeping this phone for a longer period of time thus want to use a standard charger to save the battery.
Kindly if anyone has technical knowledge about these readings please advise me whether I can use the above standard charger without damaging the battery if not what standard charger should I buy for my phone?
Update: I have been charging 'Mi Note 10 lite' with Samsung Standard Charger (1.55A 5V) but the charger is getting too... hot, not sure whether its affecting battery life (battery is not getting hot) though.

Yes you can use any charger.
1.55A Charger gets hot because mi note 10 lite can support up to 30w so it get all the "juice" of this weak charger..
Technicaly the battery life will be even better with slower chargings.. but xiaomi batteries are very good in my experience and everything official (like 30w charging) will not harm the battery.
Im phone technician btw.

Thank you.
- Are you sure this charger getting very hot is not of any concern and will not hurt the note 10 lite battery?
- Also is this dangerous for the charger? It doesn't get hot with the Samsung pone it came up with?
- I am worried because in the past one of my laptop's battery bloated because I used a charger with 19V instead of 19.5V. it shouldn't hurt the battery by some experts but I guess it did in my case probably because battery was inside laptop all the time while I was using AC power, although laptop had a feature to disconnect battery when fully charged but in my case battery still got bloated.

volts matter.. you can damage a device and its battery with more volts than it supports.. about amps , the device will get as much as it can.. for example if u plug a 5volt10 amp on mi note 10 lite it will get 5 volt and 3 amps, and the charger will not get hot
mi note 10 lite can handle from 5 to 20 volt.
The only concern is about the charger because it give all the power it have.. but i dont think samsung charger will blow up they got all protections.. your phone gets as much as the charger can give (5v 1.55amp) but i suggest you buy a stronger charger so it can charge cooler

Thank you. Btw I was using less volts charger 19V while laptop required 19.5V, I was told slightly less volts don't matter but boom a year later we find a pregnant battery.

Less volts can't harm.. Laptop batteries are fragile and they die after 2-3 years.. To live longer you have to remove it from laptop when you are not using it (the battery if charger is plugged)
+1 TO ABOVE, won't be issues. Worst case scenario charger may die, not the phone battery.
Just decided to buy a S23 Ultra as a upgrade for my Galaxy Note 8 and I need a new charger since my current charger is probably slow.
The price doesn't matter, since I just paid 855Euro for it after extending my phone contract and traded in the Note 8. However the charger should be from a reputable brand.
If it's possible, post the name and model of that charger or Amazon EU link.
Thread here.
45 Watt Charging
Does the Samsung S23 Ultra ONLY accept Samsung Genuine 45 watt charger for Super Fast Charging 2.0 aka 45 watt charging ?! BTW does anyone know any good 5A cables ?
forum.xda-developers.com
Personally I have always liked Anker brand wall warts and USB cables because of the quality. But that's just my preference (even with their bad security practices)
I've been please with the UGreen Dual USB C port charger. Does do the Super Fast 2.0 charging. Does some kind of very low trickle charge when the device 100% so the phone is actually cool in the morning when left charging overnight. https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Charg...28344&sprefix=ugreen+dual+port+,aps,59&sr=8-5
I like small, easily portable, and dual port chargers. I can charge two devices as once. And the one seems do it very well. You can definitely find faster chargers, but it fits my criteria very well.
I recommend official Samsung 45W charger, it comes with 5A cable. I use it and it workings as it should. From 30% to 85% of battery charging takes 20 minutes.
I got 4-5 Baseus chargers at home....GAN chargers with multi ports (100watts) are excellent if you've got many devices from different brands. It charges my Macbook at max capacity and same goes for all Samsung devices.
I've been using the nothing one charger I bought separately when I had nothing phone. It supports fast charging upto 30w and it is fast enough for me. It also looks a lot better than samsung's charger
I don't yet have a 45 watt charger, so I connected the 25 watt charger from my S20. It says it will take 2 hrs to charge from 15% to Full.
My S20 would charge a lot faster than that. Is this normal?
I guess.
pixel 18W charger is 2h20.
iphone 5w is 5h15
LG 10w near 3h
I might get a faster one, I have the 20W oneplus one, but it wont work on the samsung... dash charging tech not compatible

Not sure if the S20 charger uses PPS charging protocol that S23U "requires" but 2 hours for 85% sound fine if it's not charging at 25 watts.

Thanks. My S20 with that charger would charge 85% a whole lot faster than 2 hrs.
45 watt charger should arrive tomorrow. Hopefully, it will go faster.

Yes, but as I mentioned, S23U requires PPS protocol to charge at the "advertised" speed. Just because the charger is 25W, it doesn't mean it will charge at 25W if it's missing the required protocol. Hence why I wrote I'm not sure if S20 supports the same PPS as S23U uses. In order to get 45W charging speed on S23U the charger needs to be PPS and the cable needs to be rated at least at 5 Amps.

That's what should be coming tomorrow from Amazon: Anker 313 charger and 543 cable.
Why Samsung doesn't include these with the S23 is a shame!

Well, some OEMs don't include a charger with their Flagships nowadays. Samsung isn't the only one.
That seems a little slow.
Make sure fast charging is on in settings. As you plug your charger in, it should say that it's Super Fast Charging
If it doesn't, try a different cable
If that doesn't work, go for a different charger
My phone keeps saying moisture detected, when there isn't, it's fked up, some chargers work, most dont
when you want to start charging your phone,make sure phone battery temperature is normal.
if you use continuously then charge it,charging speed is lower.
don't depend on status SFC or SFC 2.0.
you need watt meter cable or watt meter to know actually the real time charging speed.
if very hot,from 45 watt down to 15 watt charging (SFC 2.0)
if you want to charge from 10 to 100 in 1 hours use 45 watt charger,you need a cooler room temperature.
or you need a cooler at the back of the phone in 33 degree celcius room temperature.
if you wat to charge wireless 15 watt,it is the same.
battery temperature can make it slower charging.
status fast wireless charging is not the benchmark for charging speed.
SFC 2.0 is the same ,not the benchmark for charging speed.
you need a watt meter cable to know the real charging situation.
My S20 charger initially shows SFC as active when I plug it in but then it drops down to normal charging. Looks like I am not the only one with this issue so guess I will be buying a new brick.
Anyone got a good suggestion on which ones to get? In addition any good 12v car chargers that support it too?

The Anker 313 charger and the Anker 543 cable work for me.
I've had old HTC and Motorola phones from years gone by that took ages to charge. When I got the opportunity and the cash to buy my Samsung, I made sure I got a charger and cable that could super fast charge. From less than 10% to 85% capacity in just a few minutes. Wow.
