interested to see how quick the s7 will charge in 30mins - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

with a non removable battery, im hoping the s7 quickcharge module can do fast bulk charges, from 10% to 80% or something like that, in 30mins. I know quickcharge has stats, just seeing if others have real world examples.
anyone timed the wireless qi charge yet? what your times or experience? heat issues?
I wonder if I should get a QC 2.0 portable powerbank then...

Will be getting a QC 2.0 powerbank myself. Wish I could find one under 8000mah. Most seem to be 12000+.

I wouldn't expect more than 50% in 30 min .

I just got my S7 Edge. Got like 30% in 22min. So like 40-45% in 30min

hmmm would have been nice to get 80% in 30, maybe oppo will sell their Vooc charging tech for the note 6.

This one is good : [Qualcomm Certified] Tronsmart® Quick Charge 2.0 18W USB Car Charger
Opt among 1 output, 2 output or 3 output. However, please note that only 1 output port supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0. Rest 2 are fast, however, not QC 2.0 Fast.:good:
what is it i need one ?
Check slickdeals. I've been using the $5 one (on sale). It outputs 12v so it charges the phone very fast.

Thanks for that. slick deals is having a promo on this.
However i was wondering s6 edge plus is not qualcomm based, instead exynos.
I was considering this one.
http://www.amazon.com/Aukey-Charger-Adapter-Smallest-Powerful/dp/B00M6QODH2
This is 2.1amp, and is the smallest, it can virtually snap right into your car charger port, without the protruding charger popping out.

Technology is same. High Volt, low Ampere. Any QualComm Certified QUick Charger would be compatible with Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging. Atleast any branded ones, never go for any unheard brands. Usually Tronsmart, Aukey and Anker are good choices in average budget. Here's a video review I did for Tronsmart Adapter (Quick Charge) with my Edge+ :- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR8W9ozZgAs
Also, please note that I have no affiliation with any of these brands, I just received a product for the review from Tronsmart and I found it really good. And I'm sure Aukey and Anker are equally good.:fingers-crossed:
Also, the Car Charger you are considering isn't fast charging compatible. Although it will not take much time with high Amp output (as specified), but its definitely not a fast charger.
Well, I am using CHOETECH’s Dual USB Car Charger with a dedicated port certified by QUALCOMM’s quick charge 2.0 technology so that I can charge my S6 Edge plus at quick charging rate even on the go. The main specialty of this charger is that it is not only charge the fast charging devices but also Apple devices like iPad Air 2 or iPhone 6 plus at much fast rate as compared to their original charger. You can consider to buy this from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YX7Y3G8/

Thats very good info. Charging technology is evolving with the phones, and thats a very positive start.
The day is not very far when we might have multi thousand mah of battery juice and charging becomes a weekend job.
Do you mind taking notes while charghing 20% of battery with both the qualcomm fast charge, and the regular 2.1amp charger.
I've already placed an order for the Aukey 4.8A / 24W Dual USB Car Charger mainly because of the size. I'd really want a charger that can **** plush within the car's charging port.

Charging isn't a very quantitative process. First 20% of charging would never be same as next 20% of charging. Usually with fast charger, the first 20% would be amazingly fast while the regular 2.1 amp might take upto 1.5 - 2 times the time. Also, assuming two different devices have same sized battery, with the same charger, one might get 70% charged within 30 min while the other can get 80% charged. However, by the end of 100%, both might take similar time. Thats why, the % readings aren't very consistent or dependable. Its approximation. With 2.1 Amp charger, you won't loose much time, trust me. Also, I don't have the facts, but I have noticed that when I do the fast charging, battery drains out marginally quicker than when I charge through regular 2 Amp charger. Hope that helps.. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks that was good info. I've received my 2.1Amp Aukey charger.
I tried it yst evening while commuting back home from work, which is about 20min drive, and the phone was at at 50%, and it was able to charge about 30% in less than 30 mins. Looks promising. I love the form factor. you cannot evne see the charger plugged into the car port. Best of all, the car port's cover covers the entire charger when not charging, this way i dont even have to remove the charger jack every time i have to charge the car, just pluck out the wires, and snap the cover back to conseal the charger.

With constant gaming and videos watching (after working hours ofcs ), mine doesn't stay beyond a day. I'm very happy with that though. I have seen significant different in battery life when I keep the power saving mode on and it doesn't really impacts my gaming at all even though it says that power saving switches to the 1.5 ghz cores and stays that way...!
It doesn’t matter a lot but yeah the main thing is internal circuit and the premium component used in the manufacturing. All of the chargers integrated with Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 chip inside. But the best components used in the manufacturing plays a vital role. I can trust CHOETECH more in this area as they are offering 18 months warranty, which means they are confident about what they produce or deliver to their consumers.

Charging thoughts.

I just got this wonderful phone, but there are some mysteries that I would like to get solved. Mostly, they are about charging. I would like to use wireless charging, but most QI chargers only deliver 600-1000 MAh. If it delivers 1000 MAh and the power conversion rate is set by manufacturer to 70%, does that mean that it only charges with 700 MAh?? That way it will take 4.5 hours for it to charge from 0-100%. BUT... my original wall charger shows appx 700 MAh when I check it with the pro version of the app Galaxy Charging Current and the pro version of Ampere. The phone says the phone is done charging in appx 1.5 hours. What decides the rate of charging?? I have tried a LOT of chargers, even the now leftover charger from my Galaxy S4, but they don't charge as fast. Some of my USB wall chargers take over 3 hours to get the job done, and I would like a spare that does it as good as the original. There are som 3 Ampere chargeres on ebay, are any of them any good? Hope to get this clarifyed.

Hi,
Which phone? Kindly provide us the more details.
My phone
What? You are not psychic?? ;=) My bad, I thought I posted this in the Galaxy S7 forum, but must have been sleepy. Like I wrote, it is a Samsung Galaxy S7. Sorry for the slip.

Quick charge not working.

Hi. Posted this in a couple other places already. Got my XZ yesterday and it doesn't come with a quick charger. Fine, I bought some. None of them are working though.
Tried Anker and Aukey, and also the charger from my wife's HTC 10. Any ideas why this isn't working?
Everything I've read (the specs on the official site) say that this phone supports Quick Charge. I've tested the HTC 10 in all 3 chargers and it quick charges so I know it's not them.
Tried it with Battery Care off and nothing. When Battery Care is on all I get is messages saying "Battery Care has crashed" or something. Pretty annoying, considering I just dropped about £50 on new chargers!

Sony enable Quick Charge only when battery is under 60% for safety reason.

Battery was at 15% dude.
When it's quick charging, does it give any indication? I know the HTC 10 says "charging rapidly".

There is no indication.
You can check with Ampere.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere
This app doesn't show exact charging current, but if it shows over 2,000 mAh (wait about 30 sec) quick charge is working.
Please note there are heat throttling, so quick charge is disabled when device is really hot.
I bought Aukey QC 3.0 and when the phone is over 85%, I get 680ma; below that I get higher rates over 1000ma.
UPDATE: I put my phone in charge at 50% and I got over 2000ma but when it reached 80%, it changed to 600ma. So it supports quick charging but when it reaches to almost full, it activate battery optimization for the safety of the battery.
confirming above, I also came from a HTC10 and was expecting to see a "charging rapidly" message. My XZ also doesnt display this.
When using GSAM, I can see the rate of change of charge, when connected to a QC2.0 or a QC 3.0 charger and at low battery capacity, I can see rate of change of up to 60% per hour, this is in line with my other QC phones. It does appear that Sony throttles charge speeds more than HTC does above 80%, but I can understand that, and it doesnt bother me too much.
Yeah, I've had some time to look at Ampere and would conclude the same.
My XZ on the Anker charger is peaking about 2190ma when charging at a low percent, whereas my Z2 on the old standard charger peaks around 730ma - this is after 5 minutes for both.
Was just a little freaked that it didn't indicate that it was "charging rapidly". Guessing the throttling will also help battery life, although it was a bit of a sore one seeing the wife's HTC 10 peak around 2900ma.
Anyone know if the Galaxy s7 chargers will output 3.0 with the international models??
Did you buy a used phone? My XZ came with an OEM SONY QC 3.0 rated charger. Using Gsam battery monitor pro I get readings up to 2200+ mAh charge rates between 30 and 60% battery. That is generally considered to be the safest range to fast charge lithium ion batteries (fast charge generally being a charge rate higher than .5C, which for this phone is 1450mAh). I don't get any indication it is fast charging, it just does it. QC 3.0 applies a varying voltage and amperage throughout the charge, offering more gradual and "healthy" charge curves as opposed to conventional or QC 2.0 charging. Basically your QC 3.0 charger charges the battery as fast as is possible while not sacrificing battery life (say due to excess heat or overcharging).
Hi, I have recently bought a new XZ & bought the original Sony charger UCH12W at same time. The hour of charged is need approx. 2 hours from the battery percentage 30% to 100%. Is that any one face this ? Or maybe is my charger or either my phone problem.
Try this
Use the the detect usb in the notification keys before connecting the charger,, this will solve the fast recharging issues,, even if phone will recognice charging after few seconds,, charging will be fast and normal

this solves the problem, its sad that you need to do this first and its not automatically fast charging .
Still buggy
Its the only method that i find it working,,, but still there is a chance that phone still wont charge fast so keep an eye on the charging process,, and its temporary solution till next update for soctware as i hope its a bug in android 7

How's your battery capacity holding up after some use with the 65w charging?

Looking at buying this phone but I'd like to know how the battery life holds up over time with the fast charging. What kind of screen off time do you get after 6 months or a year of using the phone?
I've had it for a year and I have charged it with a slow 1 Amp charger every night. I only use the 65w charger maybe once a month. I haven't had any issues.
I've had the phone for almost a year and I charge it with the 65w charger every day. No issues, battery lasts for as long as it did when it was new.

Yeah I just got my 8T today. I did more research and found out they use multiple temperature sensors that will trigger the device to charge slower if it's overheating. They also use 2 batteries in the phone to prevent this heat from happening under normal charging conditions. If it was in the sun or in a very warm room or something I'm pretty sure it would throttle itself based on some of the reviews I found on it. You might have to have adaptive charging on for this but I would assume it's just more aggressive than the regular protections. Pretty sure you could explode your battery with 65w charging in direct sunlight on a hot day. Anyways I think 1A charging is overkill for protecting it. 1A is also not actually not a measurement of current unless you have the volts also. If it's 5V which I think all usb is but I haven't checked since usb-c came out that would be 5 watts. I guess if you leave it on that overnight it doesn't matter though not like it'll hurt anything.

General Charging the device feels very slow - Exynos

Hello, 4 days ago I bought this new s22 ultra with exynos processor, but it is generating many doubts that the loading of the device I feel that it is going very slow or more than it should be.
It always takes 2 1/2 hours or more to charge 100% with a 47w essenger charger or a Samsung charger that I have from the s10+ which I think is 20w and 3a
Measuring the charging speed in a plant or portable battery that I always have mark at most 20w but never stays at that speed, usually oscillates a lot between 10 and 16w, and stays much more at 10w which makes me weird and annoying because it is very low
I do not know if I should buy a Samsung charger of 25w since from what I have seen the 45w charge does not work, and that charger would be 5A unlike the one I have that is 3A but I do not know if it would make any difference.
I would like to know if it happens to someone else or if it is something normal, this makes me think a lot about changing phones since the charge seems to be very slow.
Please would appreciate any help, I will also leave attached the charging settings I have placed and the measurement I have made with my charger, I serve any advice you have please
Charges fine (inc. super fast) with Samsung charger ex Note 20
I have Samsung (i think 25w charger) and from 10% to 100% Max 1h10 mins
45w charges quick enough

It's a QuickCharge 3. It's an old standard for Snapdragon phones and Samsung S-series before s20. To charge fast You need 45W PPS PD 3.0 charger. PPS is crucial.
If i remember correct samsung 45watt charging is 9v x 5A not 5v x 9A. If you have 3A the maximum you can charge is 27w (9v x 3A) but if your charger is 5v then only 15w (5v x 3A).
Exynos very fast charging battery and I tested 8 hours on TV Pingu

Turn off adaptive battery. It will change the charging speed for battery life savings. It's a new feature but has been making people think fast charging modes aren't working.
