Charging speed - Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Samsung Galaxy S10e can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Ive been having a bad time charging my S10e. It only fast charges with the original wall charger. I have like 3 fast chargers:
Huawei charger (9V2A/5V2A)
Huawei Power bank Quick Charge 3.0
Laptop Type C port 15W
All the options charged my previous Galaxy Note 8 without a problem
But with the S10e i have many issues:
Huawei charger (9V2A/5V2A): Phone says Fast charging but estimates 4hr to finish (how is that Fast Charge?)
Huawei Power bank Quick Charge 3.0 : The same, it says fast charge with a very high estimated time, but here, the power bank uses a green led to tell the device is pulling fast charge, and it doesnt turn on while charging the S10e (but the phone does say fast charging)
Laptop Type C port 15W: Phone doesnt say fast charging, but phone charges about 1.3% per minute
its very inconsistent

Thats strange, mine fast charges with 4 different chargers, and car charger, all of them are QC 3.0, Sony, Blitzwolf, and some cheap ones from aliexpress.

Funny, I just posted in S10 thread about cpux app and now I see that it could help you with testing your charging stuff as well. Sometimes the cables are problematic too, so using that app, while charging, you can determine the exact charging currents. It's post #9 here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10/help/wireless-charging-t3926324

I have a weird behaviour too. With Officiel Huawei charger and cable, it's not fast charging. But it's only a little slower than officiel Samsung charger : 1h40 instead of 1h25 to charge from 15%.
Another weird behaviour is : when I put the 5A Huawei cable on my QC3.0 charger, it's not fast charging. But with the official Samsung cable, on the same QC3.0 charger, it's fast charging.

Huawei have its own system fast charging different from snapdragon or exynos socs..

I got problems with it...
Sometimes it charges really quick, like Quick Charge does. But then sometimes it says it needs about 8 hours to charge fully.
Thats why i voted Average 3* and charging speeds sometimes even differs if i plug it out and in again.
EDIT:
With the original charger which came in the box it works fine and needs about 1h and 40m to fully charge.
1 hour 45 mins normal charge with original cable and adapter S8 rocking stock AQF7 not rooted

OK, the original charger, what is the Voltage & Amperage Output?
Also.....
From 25% to full charge using a QI Wireless Charger and the Original Charger that came with it, how long to full charge?
From 25% to full charge using the USB out on a laptop (.5Amp), how long to full charge?

Hi are you Iranian?
If you doesn't use official Charger of S8 that it's available in Phone Box it's probably correct that your device will not be charged very fast and you have to use the Official and trusted charger of Galaxy s8 that Samsung electronics have confirmed it.
Been using the s8+ for two weeks
Not sure what to say. When i check with Ampere app, it only shows it charges for 1000 maH
I have Xiaomi mi5 which charges for 2000-3000 maH with the same charger
How could samsung lose to Xiaomi?
After the August security patch the fast wireless charging is broken. I have the European version S8 and a choetech wireless fast charger. Does anyone has this problem after the last OTA update?
Just to point out, the fast wireless charging option is activated in the settings but the wireless fast charging is not working, only normal wireless charging.

I was wondering if it was my wireless charger faulty... did you have any source on this bug or it's just your (and mine) experience?
you cant check charging current with ampere app, because Samsung changed charging method a lot after explosive s7.
basically if screen is on charging current drop to ~ 1000mah. and phone use 9v or 12v only if screen is off.
also if you phone charge longer than 2h something is wrong with your charger\wire or phone can't go to sleep properly due to "cancer" apps who prevent full sleep.
But iam here to ask owners of 25watt chargers, is it worth it? how long it takes to charge it with it?
i not sure if link are allowed here but here it is https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/m...apter-for-galaxy-tabpro-s-25w-ep-ta300cweguj/

How fast is OP6 charging without dash rapid charger?

I have the Samsung Note 4. Like the OP6, it has a proprietary "quick charge" mode, but I find it will also charge quite fast when provided with a non-Quick Charge source such as a battery that can source several amps of current.
How fast does the OP6 charge without the Dash charger and cable? (in terms of amps drawn from source?)
Like it would take years like why would you want to know this, if you broke your charger buy another and look after it like. It's one of the main features of the phone and they don't talk about how fast it charges like
At work i use a QC3.0 charger for my OP6. Didn't notice a great difference to the DASH charger at home. Maybe DASH is a few minutes faster.
40% to 70% charge with QC3.0 is still insanely fast.
Stay on topic guys. OP asked a question, which could be answered with facts, rather than opinions and scenarios. In my regular car charger, I go from 22 to about 70 in 40 minutes, if I can recall correctly.

I'm not sure if you're serious or sarcastic, but In case of the former, here are a few reasons why someone might be interested in charging with other than the Dash Charger:
1) AFAIK, Dash is available in AC mains or 12V Car charger versions. I often use a 20K mAH Anker powerbank battery for charging. That is usually in situations where other power is not available, but a quick charge is needed. Huge current is available, but would the OP6 use it?
2) I use a compact travel charger that has 5 USB charging ports. Using a Dash charger would require carrying another charger (big, bulky, without retractable prongs), and occupying one (or more due to the shape) additional AC outlets.
3) I have a phone charger in my bedroom, at my desk, in my travel bag (both AC and Car style), and in my car. A quick check on Amazon seems to indicate that the Oneplus6 charger is several times more expensive than other "quick charge" chargers. Over multiple charger locations, the extra costs add up.
Using the word "like" so many times makes it difficult to understand the post.

I'm Irish, apology
I have a stockpile of fast chargers that used the weird Nexus standard (5V, 3A, non QC) and they're okay, and for overnight or at my desk at work that's plenty fast to get the job done. The phone shows them as "charging" and not "charging slowly."
I purchased a "Tinduqin oneplus5T charger" from Amazon that works and looks exactly the same as the original dash charger for about $20, but it seems to already be sold out.
If you don't use dash charger,you only can charge at 5v 1.5a,I have tested it with apple 45w pd charger,xiaomi qc3.0 and nexus 5v3a charger

It won't charge very fast because it doesn't use any on board quick charge it's all in the dash charging brick
I have a bunch quick chargers 3.0 at home. It takes a life time. I end up buying the dash charger. I still use the quick charger for over night charging
there must be some sort of software restrictions on oneplus6 since measures show that oneplus6 cannot be charged with more than 5V-1.5A.

Do you own the OP6? Do you have a USB power meter that could measure the charging current with and without the Dash charger and reply with the values?
On my Note 4, it charges at about 1.17A / 5 V when the screen is on, and the current goes up to 1.6A with the screen off. That is with either a QC2 Quick Charger or a battery power pack. The phone reports "quick charger connected" in both cases.
oneplus6 has 85% battery left, measured with usb voltmeter and original oneplus dash charger 5V-4A, it shows that oneplus6 is dawning 5V-1.3A and same thing is happening with other usb chargers capable to deliver over 5V-2A.
I guess oneplus6 should be discharged less than 50% or something in order to start receiving over 5V-3A

Is it possible to use a the original DASH-adapter but with another USB-C cable? I need a longer cable so I can use the phone whilwe charging.
OnePlus has a original cable for sale which is only 150cm Long.
My question is if I can buy any other manufacturers cable whish also support some sort of fast charging. I've heard for example that DASH-charging is the same charging model that Huawei P20 Pro uses, they just have different name. .
So, is there anyone here that has switched the OP original cable and charge it up with a cable from another manufacturer?
There has to be a solution to this. Me myself can't. be the only one that needs s longer cable.

That's normal. Phones pull the most amps when on low battery, then progressively less as they are charged.
Check how much it pulls on <40% and <80% respectively.
Well, I charged my Op6 with a no-name USB 3.0 charger yesterday (forgot my dash charger at home, I was by a friend) and from 3% to 100% it took about ~1 hour and 55 minutes.
Not that bad I guess. But I still prefer my dash charger
I'm using a huawei p20 pro charger atm. Phone states from 75 - 100 it will take 33 minutes. (prob a bit faster if I don't use the phone.
Here is a charging session with a Oneplus 2 charger without quick charge
Charging from 27% to 100% in 2 hrs, 40 min - avg. Charging speed: about 1000 mA/h
Hello,
I'm using this old thread since we're talking about the same thing.
Is there a kernel or rom for the OP6 that enables to draw as much current as possible form third party chargers? It's sad that it's stuck at 1.5A no matter the charger unless you use dash charger. 2A is already something, 3A would be awesome.
Of course only if this a software limit.

Fast charging confusion please help

Ok so... I have some confusion I need to wrap my head around right.
So I went on holiday recently and I forgot to bring the charger that came in the box with my honor 8 so I decided to buy one on holiday. So I bought the Samsung adaptive fast charging wall adapter and used that.
Now here's my problem I recently realized that when I used the Samsung charger my phone says fast charging and it has two lightning bolt symbols on the battery percentage but when I used my normal charger that came in the box with it it just says charging.
But the honor charger charges much faster even if it doesn't says fast charging but the Samsung one is very slow. So now I'm confused does the honor 8 charger do fast charge or not and if it does why doesn't it say fast charging like the Samsung charger. I'm really confused now.
Also is there a fast charger that the honor 8 supports and actually charges faster with please let me know
As far as I know Huawei/Honor phones only fast charge with their proprietary chargers that you got in the box with the phone. However last month dog chewed my USB C cable and for some reason my H8 would not charge at all with original charger but when I plug that same cable in Samsung fast charge charger it would only display one lightning symbol but would noticeably charge faster, but the only way to find this out is to use Ampere app and compare the results.

Cannot get Fast charging (15w) but can get Super Fast Charging

I have a note 20u 5g SM-N9860. While tinkering with charging options, I turned on Fast charging and disabled other options. However, when I connect stock charger and cable, it stays on CABLE CHARGING. When I turn on Super Fast Charging, it charges in Super Fast Charging mode.
Is anyone having this problem of not getting Fast Charging mode to work?
I think it depends on the charger. I don't think a super fast charger will just do fast charging. Super fast or just regular. At least that's been my experience.
Using my pixel chargers on the note it does just do fast charging, because that's all the charger is capable of.
There is an option to enable fast charging. There are two different options for fast charging and Super fast charging. Most probably that option is turned off. It is off by default.
I've experienced the same thing. You need to understand electrical currents and how the plug you putting your adaptor inside. To make it simple, use a charger that has usb a to usb c (old ones) for fast charging (samsung branded in my experience). This phone was designed to handle super fast charging anyway, why not use it?
None of the charge options make any sense to me on the N20U. Example , using an old samsung 18W brick charger. On slow charging it peaks to over 2000mA or over , on fast charging it peaks to around 2800mA. Using Accubattery to see value whilst charging. Using a 10W apple brick charger it charges are around 1000mA however.
This behavior was present across three different N20U devices.
Easiest way is to look at the charge indicator.
Around 1% a minute is snail charging.
Around 2% a minute is fast charging.

Question Charging speed

So... Phone is supposed to charge at 45W but, from what I've read, this is not really true...
I do not have the original 45W Samsung charger but a 3rd party multiport 90W charger, with 2 PD usb C and one A port.
Till yesterday I was using a standard usb C to C cable and phone would display "fast charging" with an estimate of 1h from 15% to 100%. Not really a good performance I'd say. Today I bought a certified 100W cable with a display showing charging speed (usb C to C). With this cable two things change: phone displays "fast charging 2.0" and charging speed has slightly improved: less than 1h from 12% to 100%. Still not fast enough for a 45W charging... And as a metter of fact after 5 minutes the display on the cable stops at 28W...
This matches with lots of articles that complain for the same problem...
I also have a Xiaomi 12 Pro with dedicated 120W charger + dedicated usb C to A cable (charger has A). I'm saying dedicated, because with any other cable (standard usb C to A or even the above 100W usb C to C with adapter) the Xiaomi displays "turbo charging" while with original dedicated Xiaomi cable it displays "120W max" and is indeed blazing fast: 15 min for a full charge!!!
What is strange is that if I use the Xiaomi 120W charger with dedicated cable on the s22 ultra, phone displays only "fast charging" without the "2.0".
Now... I'm not trying to compare charging speed of s22 ultra to 12 Pro: Xiaomi can achieve such a speed because the phones have two separated batteries that charge simultaneously, thanks to a power splitter that takes the 120W input and splits it into two 60W, one for each battery.
What I'd like to know is what's going on with the s22 ultra. I understand that a basic cable is not enough to deliver 45W, reason why I bought a better cable, yet I was expecting a big improvement, while it improved charging speed of less than 10 minutes. And as a matter of fact I've never seen 45W on the cable display. Maybe I need an original Samsung 45W charger instead of a 3rd party one?
Search the forum, there is a few topics regarding 45w charging... I have a 65w charger and 5a cable and the charger has all the necessary properties/charging formats needed to fast charge 2.0 the samsung, but it doesn't. i don't even get the fast charge 2.0 notification....In the end the difference between the 25w and 45w is very slim....will be a waste of money to purchase the 45w samsung charger....check the other discussion.....my charger takes basically an hour from 10-100%...it's good enough for now
Well good enough if not compared to the blazing fast xiaomi's 120w charge
Most of the time, it's only several minutes charging time difference when I have a "Super fast charging" charger or a "Super fast charging 2.0" charger connected. 45W charging seems to be over hyped by Samsung and it's not using full power to charge all the time.
I have the original new 45W charger and the phone charges from ~ 0% to 50% in approximately 20 minutes as advertised. It is faster by around 22% in comparison to the 25W fast charger between 0-50% state of charge. Afterwards they both charge in almost same way with the 45W charger being max 10 minutes faster by reaching 100%. You need a PD & PPS charger. There are only some 3rd party ones that manage to do same as checked by androidpolice:

My charger is compatible with FC 2.0 but as I said it depends on the cable. Real problem is that 10 mins faster between 25W and 45W is a real joke. Given this phones is energy hungry then... With the Xiaomi 12 Pro I don't even care: 5 mins and I get 30% of charge, although you need proprietary charger and cable

It depends on what you want. For example I am perfectly happy with my 25W charger which comes rarely in use because of me charging wirelessly and without fast charging over the night but I bought the 45W one to have the possibility to get that extra speed between 0 and 50, and my girlfriend gets my old 25W one for her base S22. Samsung has a different approach to fast charging and for me 120W on Xiaomi or 150W on Oppo/OnePlus is something I do not need although I am curious why Samsung did not make the same move yet. Just split the cells in two or three, give each cell a maximum of 25W and boom, you're in the mix and nobody will complain.
On the other hand they lied to us about last gen 45W charger which was useless so it is fair to say that their battery & charging department is almost on the same bad level as the Exynos software team if not actually worse than them

2 cells is exactly what Xiaomi does
Reg Samsung, that's my point: they indeed lie, it's not a 45W phone. Full stop.
I have two Super Fast Samsung 25 watt chargers. One for my S22U and One for my Tab S7+ and both can charge in under an hour. 45 watt chargeers just wasting your money, and extra wear on the battery for a tiny bit of improvement. Not worth it to me.
