Rapid Charging

I"m a bit disappointed that it doesn't charge as fast as Droid Turbo's 15 minutes to full. It only states 10 minutes for 4 hours of usage, does anyone know how long it takes to charge it full?

15 minutes to full?

Droid Turbo takes 15 minutes to charge from 0% to 100% battery.

0-100: +/-80mins with turbo charger (official wireless charger: 3hours)

15 minutes of charging on the Droid Turbo officially gets you "8 hours" of unspecified runtime. Users are reporting 2-4 hours if real world use.

I reckon this will be right.
I have a Note 4 with fast charge, and can confirm it takes mine around 80 mins from 0.
But like most things it depends on where you plug it in.
Go from the mains directly, so it can draw more ampage and it obviously goes a lot quicker than using an extension lead.
If I use my Anker IQ multi charger, it takes the same amount of time as normal (fast charging doesn't work on it).
Through an extension lead Fast Charging says it works, but it still takes ages from 0.
But from the mains, I had 25% charge in 15 mins for sure!

A device with a nearly 4000 mAH battery charges in 15 minutes?
I doubt it. I don't have my own personal nuclear power plant
Even if I did, I wouldn't want to carry around a bomb in my pocket, which is precisely what a 4000 mAH battery charged in 15 minutes with today's tech would be.

No, it doesn't. As per Motorola:
48 hour battery. Zero compromise: Go up to 48 hours without stopping to recharge thanks to a 3900mAH battery, one of the largest ever put in a smartphone. Plus, when you charge DROID Turbo with the Motorola Turbo Charger, you get up to eight hours of power in a quick 15 minutes when you need it the most.
UP TO 48 hours. And UP TO 8 hours in 15 minutes. That means 1/6th of your battery in 15 minutes. Which means about 16-17%, give or take.
My girlfriend has a Droid Turbo, I have the S6. They charge pretty much the same amount via quick charge.

I have a droid turbo and I assure you it does not charge 0%-100% in 15min. What does do is charges about 20% or so in 15 min and it still isn't no 8 hours of use time.

have to charge twice in day... heavy usage!

I'm not a heavy user, i do not use Whatsapp and Spotify all day, and I shut the phone off during the night. With the supplied 2 A charger it takes 2 hours to fully charge the phone from 0 to 100%, when powered off. On average, I only have to charge the phone every other day. I also bought a separate 1.2 A USB charger to take with me, and this off course charges slower.

This phone charges really fast (2 amps instead of 1.5) but it gets low battery really quick...

Takes 1.5h to charge from 10% to 90% with stock 2A/5V charger

It takes longer to charge using a 2.4A Anker charger then it does with the stock or Motorola 2A charger, i guess this phone is best tuned for 2A chargers.

~2 hours to charge from 8% to full on stock 2A charger. TA-1025 build 00WW_3_72A + Dec 1 update. Notbad.jpg

Very Fast
Yes nokia 6 charged very fast than other phone but after 95 % it takes more time to become 100% . within 30 min it gets charged upto 60-65 % .

i lost the stock charger.. currently using asus zenfone 2 stock charger which is 5v 2A or 9v 2A. it used to take 2hours20mini to 8-100 % in nogout 7.1.2 but in oreo beta it takes 3hours 20minit to get 8-100%... should i get the stock charger from Nokia care? is the stock charger available in Nokia care? or those are not like stock charger??
please help anyone.

Simple answer, I don't know dude.
I've only ever used the stock charger. I'm still on Nougat 7.1.2 and loving the current 72 build too much so I don't have any plans to jump on the Oreo beta yet. Also the increased amount of telemetry in the Oreo Beta, I would assume, contributes to a larger battery drain, which doesn’t make comparing Nougat to Oreo a fair comparison.
The stock charger and it's charging speed is nice, but it isn't anything really mind-blowing. My previous phone was the OnePlus 3T and with the dash charger I was pulling like 90% battery in ~30mins of charge time. That was fast. When you're dealing with the difference between a 2 hour and a 3 hour charge time personally I wouldn't really care enough to buy another charger, but yeah that's just me.

thanks

thank for your nice explanation. will you please let me know how much time the stock charger take to charge nokia 6 from 0-100 or 15-20 to 90/100 ..please i would love to hear from you.
.

Charging speed significantly improved after oreo stable.Feels like a 15-20% improvement.I will check with a timer and post exact timings soon.
Please check the attached images.
https://photos.app.goo.gl/kweoHTUvNhvyzHn53
I was in hurry,will upload 0 to hundred percent screens asap.

Purely anecdotal, but I don't feel that charging speed hasn't really changed from Android N to O.
0-90% is still around 2 hours charge time. 90-100% is like an extra 30 minutes to an hour.
What has noticeably changed though, for the better, is battery life. Oreo battery life and management is really nice.

How slow are we talking; how long does it take for it to go from 0% to a 100%?
Sent from my Mi A1 using XDA Labs

About 2hrs and 15 mins. And this is when you don't use your phone while charging at all.

My Mi A1 has almost the same capacity and charges in about 2 hours. I think that's acceptable.
Sent from my Mi A1 using XDA Labs

it took me 1 hr 35min to charge from 10-100%.
getting battery backup of 1 day & 2,4 hours above
no gaming(not a mobile gamer)

Charging are so slow it tooks atleast 2 hours to get full charge, and is not acceptable. What year is it? 2016? My other phone with lower price than this can perform 35% faster.

Pretty fast, especially when using QC3.0 charger.
0-80% is fast, but 80-100% is pretty slow in my opinion. It's a good thing tho, makes the battery last longer.

Fast charging should refer to the initial phase. If you plug in for 20 minutes it should give you enough power for atleast 5-6 hours. Sadly, that is not happening over here.

Some people here say that their device takes longer to charge and all. I say there a some important factors to consider -
1. Heat of the Device - How hot it was when you put it on charge. If it is hot, then definitely your phones regulator will reduce the amount of charge let into the phone.
2. Ambient Temperature - If the climate is hot, then automatically fast charging will increase device temperature. And as Black color absorbs more heat energy phones temperature will naturally be more than in a chilled room. (All phones are susceptible to this phenomenon, I've Experienced this first hand) and more heat = low speed charging
3. Power Outlet - The power outlet at which the charger is connected also plays a very important role. Pretty Self explanatory.
My Phone takes around 1:40 - 1:50Hrs at normal temps(ambient and device), while 2:30Hrs in a very hot condition.

too slow , it takes me over 2 hours to 25% to fully charge

Wrap charge

I apologize in advance if it's was already asked
So i'm wondering how it works. Does it use warp charge till it reach 100% or it goes normal like at 50 or 70%?
I noticed it's slow 90 to 100 whereas i see warp charge logo

I'm on havoc so idk if it's the same, but havoc shows the output, from what I can see its between 5-6amps until 50% and slowly tapers down from there to 1 amp between 90-100%

Never charge to 100%, it shortens the battery lifespan a lot. It's best to use it on 20-80 charge range.
After 80% the charging speed slows down like any other phone.

The about 20/80 has also worked out well for me on all my devices...

This is a fallacy. I charge my phone to 100% everytime and after a years time my battery still has 93-96% capacity. The damage is done if you let it discharge below 10 or 15%. Lithium ion batteries looked to be charged more frequently and when the battery is above 75%. The higher the battery percentage the more charge cycles it will have.

Thanks for the lifespan tip. Didn't know about it

I didn't understand the last part of your post, if you charge till 80% you'll use very little charge cycle. The most of the battery wear is done on the last 20% charging. Even if you store a li-ion battery at 100% it get damaged very quickly.
They like to be charged often and stay on 40-50% average charge level. If you do that the battery is going to last 3+ years.
If you charge overnight to 100% and top up every time you'll need to replace the battery in less than 1 year.

This is not the case. Charging the phone more then 20 or 25% or more results in more charge cycles. Look up BatteryUniversity.com and it will explain it to you. The damage above 80% is done if the charging per doesn't reduce and you charge to quickly from 80-100%. This is why the battery reduces charging speed after 80% down to a trickle charger from 95% to 100%. This is built into the charging tech so there is no battery damage charging your phone to 100%.
I charge my phone to 100% everyday and something twice in a day and never have battery issues or reduced battery capacity. My phone lasts as well after 1 year as from the day it's purchased.

Read carefully, it says exactly what I'm telling you.
I'll attach a screenshot of the website that you suggested, it's shows what I'm saying that if you charge to 80% instead of 100% you get three times more battery cycles of lifespan (850-1500 vs 350-500).
Also the second screenshot shows that if the battery stays at 100% it degrades much faster (only 80% capacity after one year vs 96% capacity if stored at 40%).

And if you charge routinely from 75% or higher, you can achieve up to 1200 cycles for lithium ion batteries. I'll do my way as I don't lose battery capacity after a years time. This is info from battery University. Been doing this for years (since the note 3). Again I'll say, it's not charging to 100% it's if your charge to quickly from 80% to 100% it's what's bad for the battery.
---------- Post added at 08:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------
If you read what you posted it's the temperature During the charging that reduces the charge cycles. There is no heat in a OnePlus phone with Warp or Dash charging. Depth of discharge also increases cycles if you charge when the battery had more charge. For example... Charging at 25% or less gives 250-300 charge cycles, 25-50% gives 350-500 cycles, 50-75% 600-900 cycles and above 75% up to 1200 cycles. I'll continue to follow that by battery University and continue to have a battery that doesn't lose capacity

I'm not going to convince you but I don't like the pread of disinformation.
If you read the graph in the picture it show that what damages the battery is both from high temperature and high charge level. Just look at 25 degree row:
40% charge - >96% capacity after 1 year
100% charge - >80% capacity after 1 year
Things are even worse at 40 degree: 85% capacity vs 65% so 20% extra battery capacity lost.
Remember that when the battery capacity is at 80% means the battery is gone because it cannot cope with the ampere under load and the phone will shut down. This after 1 year without taking consideration of the extra damage while charging to 100%.
Now I'll copy and paste that part from the website:
Most Li-ions charge to 4.20V/cell, and every reduction in peak charge voltage of 0.10V/cell is said to double the cycle life. For example, a lithium-ion cell charged to 4.20V/cell typically delivers 300–500 cycles. If charged to only 4.10V/cell, the life can be prolonged to 600–1,000 cycles; 4.0V/cell should deliver 1,200–2,000 and 3.90V/cell should provide 2,400–4,000 cycles.
4.20v is 100% charge
4v is 70-75% charge
Be careful that's tge voltage of the cell, not the charging voltage.
I agree with you that slow charging makes less damage but still charging from 75% to 100% makes hugely more damage to the battery than charging from 20% to 80%.

Yeah I can say the same about disinformation which is what I said to you to begin with. My op6 which I bought and had since launch still gives me 9-11 hours is screen on time today like it did on day one. That phone like all the rest of my phone is charged to 100% every day, normally from about 70% or higher remaining battery when put on charge. Using a few different apps my battery capacity still shoes 95% capacity.
Again, charging to 100% and damaging your battery is a fallacy. Charging to 80% is fine but your depth of discharge is greater putting more stress on a lithium ion battery.

That's is from lab test made from scientist, so I trust it.
Also no one tells you that you need to wait 20% to charge, you can do 40 to 60 or 30 to 50 but i can assure you that I've got a phone a xiaomi mi 5s 3 years old same battery charging 20% to 80% and is still usable, I'm using it as a second phone.
My previous phone was a galaxy note, I was charging it overnight and charging it to 100% often through the day, i replaced the battery three times in two years.
Thats my experience.

So guys what you recommend for charging pattern for best battery health ? I'm rly lost from what u said...
Me I charge my phone every night with very small charger I think it's 1amper maybe lower.
I never let it under 25-20 % and always charge it full with zero heat and takes long time to charge because of the charger.
If I wake up to go toilet and night and it's charged I removed it and that's it..

The best charging pattern is to always keep the battery near 50% and do frequent charges through the day.
Don't charge overnight, leave the battery at around 50% when you go to sleep.
At the morning, when you wake up plug in the warp charger so you can charge to 80% before going to work.
Charge over 80% only in special circumstances when you need long battery life.
Try to never go below 20%.

I recommend you to plug your phone 1h before sleep and charge it fully or do it in the morning. You may increase your battery life with all that slower charging, up to 80% etc but really? Is it worth to resign from that cool Warp charging feature just for extending your battery lifespan and you won't even know how much it will extend? And you can even exchange the battery at authorised center for about 20 bucks.

I thought the myth about leaving the phone charging overnight breaks stuff was explained away already. There's stuff that runs in the background that improves the usability of the phone and decreases battery drain.
Read this monster post for full info. Not so much looking after the battery but system optimization. Warning. It's a big read. I've been leaving my phone charging overnight for years. I still have a OP5 that's being used daily and still gets fairly impressive SOT. Other thing is, "we" tend to change our phones quite often. SO I just don't worry about it too much and use the phone the way I want to use it.
