Hi Guys
Got the S22 Plus in Snapdragon variant and the phone doesnt charge nearly as quick as reviews online taking 1 Hour 30 mins for me, and yes I have fast charging enabled on the battery settings
I have read couple of articles and seen few videos about it. It does take 1 hr 30 mins to get fully charge.
I'm using Charger came with my S20plus along with the cable came with S20plus.
My phone charges up in 1Hr 10min max.
It depends on the room temperature and the phone temperature also I think.
However buying a 45W charger for S22plus is a waste of money.
Nvm
Usually, those charging times they advertise are from 0-80%. The way lithium ion batteries charge, they all slow way down after 80% . After that you may as well be using a 5w charger.
Get 45w charger I usually getting around 40minutes to 90%+. you will see Super Fast Charging 2.0.. but since android 13 update I only see Super Fast Charging although it charge as fast
Honestly, I am using my laptop type C charger. It shows as fast charging and max it takes is 1 hr 15-20 mins for full charge. So I think you are good.

Mine has been taking forever lately, just took over 5 hrs to gov from 25 to 100%...WTF! My Hero with the 1500mah battery would charge from 10% to 100% in 1.75-2 hours this thing has a roughly 17% bigger battery but takes 3 times as long now to charge, it didn't at first when i got it but it is now no matter which of my 3 HTC wall chargers or my car charger I use. I don't know if the battery is going bad or what. Is there an app for displaying charging amps...I thought I read that there was but i can't find one?

I use Current widget (free in market).
Cool Thanks, wonder if that shows amps comming in to phone or just +amps over what the phone is useing...by the fluctuations I would say the latter. Works though.
That Current Widget worked great, when unplugged it shows draw and when plugged in it shows gain rate. Note for everybody, just because it sais its a High Speed 2.0 cable doesn't mean it meets the amp draw requirements. 2 of my skinny cable are only capable of transfering 500mah when the HTC cable and 1 of my thick ones transfer a full amp of juice. Good to know all my chargers work just have to get a thick-high quality 6ft cable now.
Well I bought the Galaxy S3 on the first day of the UK launch and depleted the battery to 0% then charged with the original 1 Amp charger from 0%. I had noticed that this takes a very very long time, around 8 hours. The battery life after charging however is substantial and very adequate.
On the second charge after depletion once again, I decided to use a Griffin 2.1 Amp charger which I had used to charge the hefty Galaxy note with. The Galaxy S3 charges at a much rapid rate and takes around 2-3 hours to reach 100% from 0%. However I have noticed that the battery life depletes a bit faster, Is this due to my imagination or is a 2.1 Amp charger not suitable for this phone as it was with the tablet-like Galaxy note.
Also note that I tried to charge my HTC one X with the 2.1 Amp charger and it charge very slowly, while the original HTC charger has a much lower ampage than 1 Amp
Hmm I have been using my galaxy s charger 0.5amp and it has been charging pretty slowly but seems to deplete faster.
I have been actively using for 50min on wifi now and 85% left. Which seems a bit quick for me. I will try charging with the standard 1amp tonight and see.
Now fast are you depleting at?
I measure my battery life by checking the screen on time just before the death of the charge which was 5 hours on the original charger, with the quick charger its 4 hours. My Galaxy note has no change in battery life weather you any ampere chargers. Also the general battery percentage seems to run low faster anyway on the galaxy s3 using the fast charger.

I shall try the standard 1 amp charger the next time my phone depletes

Just wondering, since the S2 had a limit of 650mA for charging, does this apply to the S3? You guys make it sound like it charges slow as well...
Galaxy s2 does charge very slow for me aswell. Compared to htc phones the Galaxy s 2 charges painfully slowly. Now I regularly use the 2 amp charger on my galaxy s3 and have seen a huge improvement in charging speeds. It charges at around 2% per minute and still lasts around 4 hours of screen time for a full charge.

I noticed that I can only charge fast using original charger. While charger with shorted usb data + & - (ie. htc 1A charger) will not activate fast charging.
You can verify by going into *#*#4636#*#*, Battery, using ori charger will show AC while HTC charger will show USB
I think samsung made some changes to the microUSB pinout

Thanx for the "shortcode". Where does one find those?
Also from reading about the MHL to HDMI cable from older devices not wotking, it does in fact seem that Samsung have changed the microUSB pinouts (although my Nokia 1.2A charger shows AC in that battery "menu").
Mine charges from about 10% to full in about two and a half hours, using the charger provided in the box.
My s2 came with a 0.7amp charger and took about 2.5 hours. My s3 came with a 1amp charger and takes about the same. Charges to 80% in no time and then slows down for the later part of the charge

A battery isn't like a fuel tank which you simply fill up through the hose until it's full.
Due to physical and chemical reasons, a nearly-full battery takes a lot longer to fill by a certain percent since it simply can't store the energy quickly enough.
Additionally, deep-discharged batteries often start with a slower charging speed (and then cranked up) to keep the battery from dying too soon and/or not being able to reach full capacity.
is the Nokia 1.2A charger ok to use with the samsung G3 as i got one of these spare and would prefer use it if so as the usb is way to short to reach from my desk up and around the back.
but the Nokia 1.2A charger lead is more than long enough
Just to check with all of you, i've been told that it is best not to charge your phone or any other handheld device IF the battery is not at a really low rate, at least not till your device actually prompts you to charge. They were saying that this would cause the battery life to be shortened. But at times, I need to make sure that i have enough battery to last me for a few more hours before i knock off from work, i would just charge the phone (battery at 25-30%) even before it prompts me to. Is it alright to do that often?
2ndly, at times when i stream videos on my phone for many hours, the battery would definitely drain fast and i would need to charge my phone at least 2-3 times a day. Is it alright for me to do that or am i "abusing" it? =X
Appreciate all your advises...Thanks in advance~
so any update on if using the nokia charger is ok with it being 200mah more than the standard 1A charger since it has longer lead.
or there is the 700mah samsung charger from my old S2

I don't know why this misconception still lives on; lithium ion batteries require no priming on first use. The WORST thing you can do with a li-ion battery is to fully deplete it before recharging. It is much better to top it off whenever possible; having said that leaving it turned on, on the charger once it is full is also not the best thing (though nowhere near as bad as depleting it fully).
I believe since this phone has a removable battery with external charger the best thing you can do is always charge your battery in the external charger and just switch out the battery when it gets to around 10%.
Nek0onna you should charge your phone whenever it's not full and you have a handy charger.

what about using different chargers though as i have said yet not answered yet,
i got a samsung s2 700mah charger and a nokia 1200mah charger which will work the best for the battery etc
the 1A included one the usb lead is to short for use behind a desk

Can anybody check what the max charge rate is on this device with a battery monitor app? I have handfuls of 1A and a couple 2.1A chargers. I'd really like to charge at twice the rate if possible but not all devices support such rapid charging (kernel limits and such). Just curious before I buy one Thanks!
Even if Samsung slipped up and allowed a 2A charge i'd never want to try it, because tablet and laptop batteries are rated and manufactured for a higher current charge/discharge and most phone batteries would heat and swell up and possibly explode.
my HP touchpad charges with a 1A charger and it would be nice to use that with my sgs3.
Can anybody please check what the max charge rate is on this device
I've only charged my Z5C a couple of times but I noticed that it seemed to charge very quickly, checked the product code of the very neat USB wall charger that came in the box ( "UCH20" ) and sure enough it looks to be Quick Charge 2.0 compatible charger.
A nice bonus I wasn't expecting so thank you Sony!
UCH20 output is 5 V/1500 mA, same as the EP880 so not sure how you can see significant charging speed. Only UCH10 is Quick Charge 2.0 certified with output of 5 V/1800 mA
That's interesting, because it definitely seemed faster to me than my old Z3C charger.
And when I checked the spec on this page http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/accessories/usb-charger-uch20/specifications/ it lists "Quick Charger UCH20" at the top above "Product Specifications", but Qualcomm Cetification isn't mentioned.
Then here (http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/09/20/sony-uch20-usb-charger-bundled-with-the-xperia-z5-family/) they mention "When Sony first announced the Xperia Z5 series back at IFA 2015, it initially tagged this accessory as a ‘Quick Charger’"
Wonder if it failed the certification, but still has the circuitry so is effectively Quick Charge 1.5?
I have a 3rd-party Quick Charge 2.0 charger on the way so it will be interested to compare the charge time difference.
Ok, ran my phone down to 4% this evening and plugged it into in the UCH20.
With the phone on, this is how it charged:
Start = 4%
20 mins = 22%
35 mins = 36%
60 mins = 60%
80 mins = 80%
100 mins = 95%
110 mins = 98%
121 mins = 100%
Not as fast a "quick charge 2.0" charge I think, but faster than I ever remember my Z3C charging?
Will it try it from completely flat with phone off next time (which might be a few days away... )

Well not quite QC 2.0.
The lab test Qualcomm quotes charged a smartphone with 3300mAh battery for 30mins
QC1.0 > 0% to 30% (5V / 2A)
QC2.0 > 0% to 60% (9V / 1.67A)
And 0% to 12% on a conventional 5V / 1A charger.
The Z3C came with a 5V / 1.5A charger just like this Z5C apparently. And the Z5C has a slightly bigger (2700mAh vs 2600mAh) battery so I'll make a wild guess that it's about the same speed, if not a tad slower.
Shame it doesn't come with a QC 2.0 charger.. Would've been a nice touch to include it.
Yes, I know the Z3C came with a charger that is supposed to have the same output, but my Z3C didn't seem to charge as fast as my Z5C is...
My experience was similar to this, charging in about 2.5 hours
https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z3-Compact/How-long-to-fully-charge-battery/td-p/861671
The only explanation I can think of is that I was using a data USB cable with it, and I'm now using a 3rd party one specifically designed for charging. I'll update with the actual Quick Charge 2.0 recharge speed when my new charger arrives.
why didnt they they give us the optimal charger with the phone in the box then? I was looking forward to faster charging times, but i havent noticed any difference
Well that explains that disappointment with my Z5C, I need a new charger.
Now if only there was an easy solution to the phones lag problems...
Interesting thing is, Sony doesn't use step charging for Z5C and Z5P.

Z3C's max was 1800, so it's faster than Z3C.

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the honor 5X can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Takes almost 2 hours with me using a 2.1a fast charger

if you have gsm battery app you can see that the phone cannot accept 2.1A,
it's the big cons indeed!
Takes 2h20m from an Anker IQ 2.4A charger (1-100%) With the stock 1A charger it takes 3+ hours.
I just got mine and it charges much faster with a 2 amp charger. I am using a 5 port Aukey with one port that has the Qualcom fast charge 2.0.
I also have a Blu VIVO 5 and the Honor charges just as fast as that with the 2 amp charger. The Blu Vivo 5 includes a 2amp in the box while the honor does not.
On my HTC One and my Sony Xperia Z3 compact, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere reports something in the neighborhood of 1.4-1.7 amperes with a Quick Charge 2.0 charger, and I go from 1% to 60% in about 20-30 minutes as claimed. On my Honor 5X, the highest I see the app report is 850 mA, and it takes about as long as what everyone else is reporting. With a non-Quick Charge charger I get about 550 mA.
Edit: 850 mA is what I often see using one of my chargers. I'm using a different one right now and just now I saw it as high as 1.1 A.
Using an USB multimeter I can see it charge at 1A with my Blitzwolf 5 ports charger.
Honor 5x L22 model take around 3 hours to charge from 0-100%.
Wish they would enable Qualcomm Quick Charge tech for this device since the Chinese market version has it by default. It takes quite a while to charge from 0-100
Good speed with the normal 2 Amp charger. reaches 100% in and around 2hrs
Quite slow
upto the mark
Coming from a fast charging phone, honor 5x is quite slow. But it is OK as i use the phone normally so from 100 to 0 it last easily 2 days.
Sent from my KIW-L21 using XDA-Developers mobile app
yep they should have used some sort of quick charge
0-100% takes 2 and a half hours usually.
2hours with 2A charger
It's still very slow
Plus side is slower charge will keep your battery in better health and longer lifespan . fast charge is real harsh on the battery pack .
I find mine takes almost 3 hrs from about 5% to full when on and 4G running . You can get 60% in an hr or less which not bad .

VOOC from Oppo is the most efficient.
2 hours average from 5-100% on stock charger.
I know it sounds weird but it's hard for me to ignore the fact that whenever I charge my phone early in the morning, battery temp - 26C usually, around 4 AM it charges like all hells gone lose. From 20 to 100 in somewhat an hour or more.
Note, my phone is a standard non fast charging/dash charging phone which Ampere reports the maximum current the chip let's into the battery is 820 mA.
If I charge the same phone after some usage when the battery is at 37-40 C it takes around 2-3 hours to charge from 20 to 100.
Does any one here had a similar experience?
