What is the output of your OFFICIAL charger that came with your xperia L.
mine came with 850mA while I think Xperia U had 1000mA compared to this. Also, the battery of Xperia L is about 1750 compared to 1320.
Just curious, it is just me or it is coming with 850mA charger out of the box ?
I've checked my old charger for Xperia X8 which I'm using to charge my XL and the one that came with XL and they both giving ouput of 5.0V and 850mA
Also what do you mean with the battery ?

Thank you, yes it was confirmed that it comes with 850mAh charger.
I was talking about the battery capacity which is 1750 for Xperia L and 1320 for Xperia U. The more the capacity of a battery, the longer it will last. (Simply more battery time).
Also, if the charger is rated as 1000mAh or (1A), it will take less time to charge the battery than using a 850mAh (.850A).
However, there is a safety current that should be used to charge a device as exceeding the current might result in damaging the handset.
Moreover, if you use a less powerful charger, the battery life will increase. Say if you charge your phone with 1A and I charge the same model with 0.850A, my battery might last for 2.5 years while your battery die after 2 years.
I was only wondering that what if Sony should have provided 1A charger than .850A. That's all

Dear all,
I'm wondering if I can use Nokia charger for my Sony Arc S or not as I see its port is the same. I'm asking this because Sony charger cable is too short that sometimes it's hard for me to move the phone. Will it make my battery damage if I keep using it for long time?
Thank for reading my post.

It shouldn't be a problem, but you'll still want to compare the output of the chargers. If the Nokia can't put out what the Sony charger can then it will take longer to charge, or possibly charge it faster, but it will die faster. If it puts out more, it should be ok, but still compare the outputs in mAH to each other.
For example, with older phones, you couldnt charge a motorola razr with a blackberry curve charger because it put out too much power, but you could charge a blackberry curve with a razr charger, and it would charge fast, but also die fast. The old htc phones like 8125, 8525, if completely discharged sometimes would only come back on with an original htc charger, nothing else.
I prefer an OEM charger, but will charge with whatever if that's all that's around.
I have an HTC charger and it works fine,also my wife has a pony Ericson x10 mini which also charges my galaxy s2. You max find it a little slower but test it out. I sometimes found tho using the HTC one overnight for example on occasion would make my phone warm. Try it out tho it shouldn't be an issue.

also, if both chargers break down to usb cords, just use the nokia usb cord with the sony plugin part... its that part that produces the charging power...
By what you all said I have checked the stat of both charger as below:
Nokia: OUTPUT: DC 5V, 550mA
Sony: Output: 5.0V, = (a sign) 850mA
So according to this, if I use Nokia it will take longer than using Sony itself right ?

That's a significantly weaker charger... Yea, itll most likely take longer to charge the phone, but certainly not damage it in any way...
Thanks for all the helpful posts. I have idea about it now
Hello,
my battery charger stopped working and i need a new one. I read a few review and i'm a bit confuesd, not every chargers with the capability to deliver 1000mAh works with every device. So which one oft them works with the desire s and delivers 1000mAh and not just 500mAh?
just buy a oem wall charger ,, easily found on ebay and also cheap
does it has any difference between 1000 and 500mah chargers? now i'm using original liveview charger with 500mah on it but also have 1A iPhone charger.

I also have a 1A charger (coming from a SGS3), but I haven't had any problem

Overheating
im using an old S2 charger i think, its got an output of 5V, 0.7 amps and after flashing a costom rom, jellyfirebean im getting serious overheating issues, but only while charging with the phone on.
however i cant confirm this is the chargers problem yet
just a note, its the phone that heats up not the charger

no the phone never heats up using original wall charger

Double that. Overheating can be only caused by the phone itself, or a defected battery (means it is near death, but for serius heating, you will notice like 1hrs of battery life for the phone).
On another note for the topic. I use 3 type of chargers for my phones:
At home my ASUS tab's one (which is rated 5V 1A at the standard USB, plus the extra for the dock, but it is ASUS specific), at work an old ZTE "dumbphone" charger (which is rated 5V 0.75A, and is a high frequency switching type, so really energy-efficient) and for any other my old SE X8's one, which is 5V 650mA (which is also switching type). Also dedicated charger cables, 1 nokia, 1 SE, 1 HTC and 1 ZTE at my car.
The phone's original 5V 1A is NRFB at the box of the phone, but I have a security backup Samsung charger (rated 5V 500mA and pass-trough type, so not really efficient, but stable) which works just fine. The S is not capable (or not enabled just yet) of fast charge mode AFAIK so no really chance for 500mA or more when charging (even when GPS and 3G on, and screen on max, which is aroung 430mA when I last measued it with a service cable).
reporting back
yeah i can confirm it was the 2 year old htc battery
i am now using 2 anker 1600mah batterys and they last a LOT longer + come with an enternal charger so i always have one charged, it also charges the old htc battery too externally so i can now use 3 battieries mwahahahaa
note i did have to delete battery stats in cwm to recalibrate
I have bought a new USB charger which is of 2Amph. It charges my phone amazingly fast even if i am using the phone. however the problem arises at the last point of charging that when the percentage is at 96 percent phone charges very slowly. i would like to Know if this is a problem or does it happen with all chargers?
Model : CP- AD2 2.1A output with saperate USB cable. (Looks genuine) which also come with one year warranty.

I think it's a protection feature of the phone. And anyways 96 percent should be more than enough for a full day's use
The Xperia quick-charging kicks in, because you use more than 1.5amps charger.
Xperia Z will consume about 1.3A - 1.5A usually, even if your charger is sooo big, e.g 10A
But, the fast charging must stopped somewhere near 85%, and even slower at 95%, this is because the lithium-ion or lithium polymer safety consideration
at 95%, the phone charge the battery at about 100-150mA,that's why soooo slow to reach 100%
Thanks for the info guys.

Got my new moto g yesterday and its damn good but the thing that frustrates me is the charging, I got a charger with 550mA output and it takes about 4 hours to charge from scratch. I am thinking to buy a new charger and read somewhere that the max cap is of a 1.5A power supply, I need to know how much power supply should I have for maximum battery years. Should it be 1.5A or my current charger or something in between like 1200mA. Thanks in advance.
It really depends on the electronics circuit inside the moto g and also on the one in the battery.Motorola says max recommended is 1,5Ah.I`m using an HTC charger (the old ones) with 1Ah / 5V rating , its charging it for about 2hrs.Also tried with Sony 880 charger (1,5Ah, and it took ~1hr and 30 min.But what I can tell you is that if the charger is high quality one, they all follow the 2( 3 ) step charging in a nice parabola.
If I were you , I would have gotten something with higher amps, like at least 0,9-1,2 at least, cos waiting 4hrs for it to charge is a pain, otherwise it wont be a problem for the batter at all.

A slow charge is likely to be best for overall battery longevity so as a balance I'd go for something around the 1amp mark. I use a .75a Blackberry Charger - takes 3hrs to fully charge from empty.
I recently took delivery of a Sony Xperia ZR after research told me of its amazing battery life. I used the phone for one day and found after 12 hours of heavy usage I still had 50% charge which I found to be quite impressive. Overnight I put the phone on a 4 USB outlet charger providing 2.1A that I bought online for cheap. The next day I found battery life to be very poor. I tested the charger with a multimeter and it was running 5.1V which is apparently within USB spec. Could the charger have damaged my battery? Should I be charging at a lower current?
