Charging duration ?

Hi guys, I have my phone a few days now but usually let it charge over night when iam asleep so when i wake up, i just unplug and off i go. But last night the battery was still on 30% so i figured i would wait until today and charge it! I had read it takes a hell of a long time to charge but surprisingly my phone went from 4% to 89% in just under 2 hours! A few minutes later i noticed the led had turned green so i was like "what the hell, no way can it be fully charged that fast" ....... and it wasnt ha it was now on 94% so i have no idea why the led changed to green but it had gone from 4% - 94% pretty fast so i was happy and expected the last 6% to charge pretty quickly . The next time i checked my phone 2h35mins had passed and it was now on 99% but then it just seemed to come to a halt. I would check the phone every 5 mins expecting it had reached 100% but nope. Over 3 hours had passed before it finally hit 100% but the icon beside it read 'still charging' so i decided to leave it until it was fully charged . Well its now 3 hours and 30mins and the phone apparently is still charging lol
How is it possible for it to charge so fast up until it reached over 90% and then slow down DRAMATICALLY ? Is this normal? plus why the hell did the led turn green long before the battery was fully charged?

Always the last 10% takes almost 20 mins to charger whereas 0-90% can charge in an hour or an hour and ten mins.

20 minutes??? Mate it took almost an hour just to go from 99% to 100 lol Whilst on 100 for almost an hour it was still allegedly charging so whilst waiting for it to be fully charged i just lost patience and unplugged it as it was on 100 so figured it must be fully charged even though it was still charging! So in total the phone was plugged in for almost 4 hours and was still charging at 100% when i unplugged it yet it had gone from 4% to 94% in barely over 2 hours lol

That is kinda strange bro. Y don't u calibrate your battery by downloading an app from the play store or let your battery drain to 0% and shut down and then charge from 0-100 and check the time.

Good idea man,might leave it drain completely and see how long it takes to reach full charge! I suspect it should take a long time but it was just weird how not only did the led turn green before it was fully charged but it had charged damn fast up until that point and then just slowed down massively although its not a huge concern as the battery life is fairly good

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.

Charging Time

Good morning ^^
I would like to know how much time it take for a full charge ?
from 5 to 100% , it took me about 2h , a bit slow .. :/

1h30 for me to 5 at 100%

For me it's like 0 to 50 % in 30 minutes, 50 to 80 % in next 30 minutes... And you are right, charging the last 20 % takes almost hour - pretty slow.

For me it takes almost 1,5 hrs. charging from 10 to 100%, pretty descent imo.

Hello, the Honor 8 comes with 9V/2A fast-charging technology that reaches a 47% (from 0%) charge in just 30 minutes. For a full charge, the device will take around 90-110 minutes to complete. When you’re out there changing the world, the Honor 8 has you covered with up to 10 hours of nonstop video playback and a speedy recharge. With a 10-minute charge, Honor 8 gives you 2 hours of phone-call time or 6 hours of offline music listening. Thanks for your question! (NS)

It takes my friend 2h at max

1hr 30min max

I find after 1 year and 3 months of usage, it takes 3 to 4 hours to fully charge with the fast charger.

About 1 hour and 45 mins from 3% to 100% phone off fast charge. A year and 2 months old of usage

Slow Pixel charging time

My Pixel is taking twice as long to charge as my Nexus 5X. Tried using supplied charger/cable and everything I use for my 5X(all from Google store). Anyone notice this? Pixel does say Charging Rapidly.

I have yet to charge mine via the included cables, just because I work a desk job in front of a computer, so, it's always trickle charging. I do notice it does take longer than my Nexus 6 did however, which I thought was unusual.

What is the Average time from 1-10% to full charge taken by pixel ?

I typically get from 8-10% to 100% in 50 minutes.

I was just about to post a thread about this as well. The charging is not fast. I'm using the OEM charger/cable that came with it, and I've used a couple different outlets at my office and at home. I'm sure as heck not getting 7 hours in 15 minutes (or whatever the commercial says).
At first I thought maybe it was due to the fact that the thing had hardly gotten below 50% since I received it as I was always charging it... so maybe it slowed the higher the battery %. So I let it drop down to 13%. I plugged it in to my wall with the oem charger/cable, set a timer for 15 minutes, and 15 minutes later it was at 28%. 53 minutes after that, it was at 83%, and I had to leave after that so I don't know how long it took from there to get to 100%.
I wouldn't call it slow, but it sure isn't very fast either, especially since it does indeed slow down a bit the higher the %.

Here is what I observed for quick charging. Readings taken approximately every 15 minutes. The break at 91% occurred because I unplugged and went on work break.
12:41 3% start charge
12:56 26% +23
1:13 54% +28
1:26 66% +12
1:41 79% +13
1:56 91% +12
2:32 91%
2:47 97% +6

I did a similar test yesterday. It definitely is taking longer than it should to charge. I also tired Ampere and it wouldn't calculate the charge rate

Charging speed

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 M30s can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

It took me 1.5 to 2 hours for fast charging the phone 100%

2.35 hrs from 0 to 100 percent

From 2 to 100% takes me 2 and half hours.

Took me exact 1 hour 15 mins to charge from 30-80%

It took 3 hours for me from 1% to 100%

It never takes more than 2.35 ,use different cable and charger

It takes me 3.5 hrs to go from 15% to 85%. Using the original charger and cable that came with it. The phone has disappointed me on the charging front
