Its enabled by default...
But maybe your device is heating up so the charging speed is throttling.
It happens to me too
The fastest time i had 0 to 100 was 1h40m i guess.
So dont expect much...

I'm at home and the temperature here is 25 C
We started yesterday from 6 to 7.1.1. After 7.1.1, the update does not work FAST CHARGE
In 60 minutes, approximately 50% charge

What speeds were U getting before the update? How long did it take to go From 0-100% on marshmallow?
Also did you check settings -about phone - status-charging optimisation - change to off, this well enable quick charge? Let Me know.

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 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 OnePlus 2 can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

Not at all that long. It usually takes around 2:00-2:10h to charge from 5% to 100% with the standard OnePlus charger.
Charging current is highly dependent on the temperature of the battery.

Can you elaborate a little?
If the battery temperature is higher than 35 degrees, the charging current is 1 amp, if it is below the maximum possible, depending of type %% charge, from 1.9 amps to a minimum when the battery is fully charged
1.45 from 0-100 with anker powerport 10
CHarging is a lot faster when the phone is on as compared to when it is off *observations*
Anker power port link pls.. @albireox
2 Hours!
It takes no more than 2 hous to be fully charged from 0% to 100%
Just completed the test about an hour ago and coincidentally stumbled upon this thread.
From 0% to 100% it took 2 hour 10 minutes.
Even with my old Moto X 750mA charger, it still charges pretty fast...
With all other 2A charger, it's like 1% / minute (1700mA going in with screen on) , so it's around 100-120 Minutes....
mine take just 1 hr 35 min to full charge from 15 % when it hits power saving mode !!
Excellent charging speed.
2 hours from zero to 100
Not as bad as I feared knowing that is didnt have fast charging.. 2 hours.. and thats OK.
I haven't had more than 3 hours yet.
I have a Qualcomm quick charger that charges my OP2 in about one hour...the OP2 charger takes about 2 hours

Honestly, it charges pretty quickly, it just HEAVILY slow down once u reach 80% which is good for battery, but not convenient to me.
from my testings, 0-80% in 60 minutes at OPTIMAL conditions (medium battery save, no wifi, no sync, no location, airplane mode, AOD off, brightness 1%)
i think this is absolutely perfect in every way, just wished I could simply charge it to 100% as fast for long days.
In my situation the super fast charging doesn't work somehow, or either I don't understand it. From 30-80 takes rough 2 hours. Or is it maybe because of the different country I flashed on?

Are you using the original charging cable and power adapter? From 30 to 80 should take only 40-50 minutes.
And to really fast charge, you must close the screen (AOD can work, doesn't matter)

no it says fast charging, without super. Still, 2 hours to charge from 30 to 80 is not normal at all. Even from 0% to 100% takes only 1 hour and 30-40 minutes. If this keeps happening, I think you should take your phone to a Samsung Service and let them check what's wrong.

I will try flash stock firmware first after I will check out with service center, anyway thanks for your help.
My phone charges from 5 to 85 in 60 mins. And takes 1hr and 30 mins to 100 overall satisfied with the speed. I had an Asus Max Pro m2 and it takes 2 and a half hour from 5 to 100
My A70 charges a little faster than 1% per 1 minute of charge. But the fast charger is not much faster than a regular charger. I get about a little less than 1% per 1 minute of charge on a regular charger.
100% charge on the A70's large battery lasts a long time.
Certain programs will drain the battery though, such as wifi transfer program opened in the background, or bittorrent type programs opened in the background, so make sure to optimize or make sure the apps are closed when not in use.
Mine is charging as Rixil 1' s charging. I am very happy with that speedy charging.

Question So what is the best android charging habit...?

So I bought POCO X3 Pro earlier this month...So I play games on it mainly and the question is which kind of charging habit is better?
1.Frequently charging to make the percentage between 50%-100%
2.Charge it to 80-90 and try not make to make it fall below 20% and charge only once in a day?
The second option is a bit far fetched for me...Though I will try
My habit is 1 + 2: when around 50%, charge it up to around 90%.
Of course I'm not paranoid about it. But I do check battery levels most times I pick up my phone, to decide what to do.
If you root your device, you can use Battery Charge Limit.
You can set the maximum charging percentage, like setting it to 80%, then the charger will stop charging.
For our POCO X3 PRO, we need to go into this app setting and change "Set Control File" to the one with mi6 or something I don't clearly remember.
ArrowOS has this smart charging built-in.
I personally use my old charger to charge it slowly.
From what I observe, the Xiaomi 33W charger will rise the battery temperature to 40°C, which is bad to the battery. My slow charger will increase to ~33°C.
The fast charge is for convenience and emergency eg. forgot to charge at night and need to rush in the morning.
Frequently charging between 40~80% is better for battery health in long term.
Advanced Charging Controller (acc) is a good module to do this under control. It also has links about battery health explanation. (Battery university)
It is best to keep it between 20-80 present and not gaming while charging. I use my old slow charger when i am not in a hurry.
i keep mine at 70% max. i charge when it gets to 40%. I use arrowOS so i can set max charging and it resets the battery stats as well, so i know which apps eats power next time
Trying to keep it between 40-80%, with 10min break before recharging to cool down
Actually, I always keep my battery between 25% and 75%, then I restart the device once a week. Finally, I will use it until 0% one or two times a month before charging fully to 100% , I have read in a newspaper, it is necessary for digital devices.

discharging at 0% seems to be at a high risk that it won't power on anymore

If you want your phone battery health to last longer for years, like 2 years or more, then it's better. Info is here: https://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
For long term, battery will degrade and loose it's capacity, so your battery die eventually, then replace, then die, then replace...

If you are wealthy enough to change your phone so frequently that you don't even want to concern the long term damage to phones, then forget about it and go for the TOP. (And coffee for me )

Battery charging: Full versus Partial - 🔋PushEVs
What's better for your electric car battery?

To be honest, I wouldn't worry too much about any loss of capacity in the battery. My oldest still active device is now 5 years old and even with that I do not notice any significant loss of capacity. Typically all of my devices charge from around 5% to 100%. My Nokia 7 Plus was charged almost daily by me for 2 years and by my brother for a year before that, but I don't know how he charged it. Still, I haven't noticed any change in the running time to this day.
Maybe it's not the place to ask, but I was wondering, is there any way to know if a Xiaomi charger is fake? I want to buy a charger between 10-18w to replace my 33w charger in order to reduce my POCO X3 PRO battery's suffering, but I live in a third world country where is VERY difficult to adquire imported products and I don't want to buy a fake one from the local online marketplaces, if you guys could please help me I would appreciate it

Just buy any 2 Ampere, 5 Volt charger. It should be fast enough, but not too fast. It doesn't have to be a Xiaomi charger.

If you have a laptop, use it's USB. It most likely will charge VERY slow, to the point that you want it to charge faster.
Edit: The alternative way is to use Magisk module Advanced Charging Controller (acc)
You need to unlock bootloader, install Magisk, and install Advanced Charging Controller (acc) module.
Then you can restrict the charging current or voltage. I tried with the official charger and it can be charged below 500 mAh, so below 2.5 watts.

The first two are should be the standard user behaviour, given the ROM build-in recharging warning. The difference in cycles to 70 to 20 % seems huge (6-10x more)

All interesting posts. I wonder however:
What about having the device connected to the charger most of the time (at work place) with 100% most of the time, so it is de-charged only a small time of the day? So only at times when really moving around some workdays or in the weekend the device gets down to 20% or below.
I have now changed the 33W (12V/3A) Fast-Charger with the older 18W (9V/2A) Charger of the RN7 I have.
Would setting the charge limit to 80% give a huge benefit if I would like to use the device at least for 2-3 years?

Connecting to the power all the time at around 100% is bad. It is at the limit of Over charging, the battery may bloat up and destroy the screen.
If you want, it's better to set it limit 40~80% and connect. The importance is the battery temperature. Don't make it hot. You can check it with Ampere.
The benefit is about the battery. You might not need to replace it often when you encounter like cases of sudden drop of percentage or sudden shutdown.
Huge or not is subjective.

Regarding battery temperature at least after reaching 100% I never noticed a hot or even warm phone.
I taught the device/system has some "charging intelligence" when always connected, so that the phone is directly using the power from the cable while the battery is not drained?
In Stock MIUI (debloated) or xiaomi.eu without root it is not possible to set a different Battery Charge Limit then?

When it's about to reach 80% or 90%, smart batteries now will charge slower automatically, so you don't feel the temperature.
However, when you see it in ultra-fast charge, like 40% charing to 70% in 30 minutes, the battery rise to 40°C or higher (as I observed.) Can even go higher depend on climate and using while charging.

This control needs root.
Unless it's built into the Rom.
ArrowOS version 2021-05-07 had Smart charging that can set a limit threshold without root.
But developer said will remove this funtcion. See in his Rom thread for his reply.

Question Battery charge to only 85%

Curious about whether many set charge to only 85%.
I am not a heavy user so not charging fully is not a problem.
Is there any evidence that doing incomplete charge extends battery life?
My previous phone Huawei Mate 20 pro was overnight charged to 100% for over 2 years and battery was as good as original in my experience.
I've set to 85% every since it was introduced. Find it more convenient, as seemingly, it gets charged faster to set level. It probably does prolong battery life to certain extent but to me that's not overwhelmingly important
Not super important to me either (I usually upgrade devices every year or so), but since a similar feature was introduced in OnePlus phones (limit charge to roughly 80-85-ish then finish to 100 before alarm or normal wake up time), I've been using Tasker to do the same thing. Limit charge to 85 and turn off fast charging, then an hour before alarm sounds, turn on fast charging and turn off the 85% limit. When I get up in the morning phone is at 100% and has only been there for about 15 minutes before removing it from charger. Seems to work pretty well.

I only charged my phone to 100% once, the first time I pulled it out of the box. After that, I have been using the 85% limit for months.

I only charge to 85% as it will extend battery life. You can see in the chart I charged the phone initially to 100% (tall bars) then I charged to 85% (small bars). You'll essentially get 3 charges to 85% for 1 charge to 100% battery wear wise.
i dont cares, as i will buy S23 Ultra Pro Max soon

From what I understand, it's the lesser of the evils. Charging to 100% is still not great over a long period of time (years I'm guessing) but leaving it on charger after reaching 100% is worse.
