It's alright, fast enought for me but thet Mate 10 Pro that I've tested charges much faster.

its slow than what i expected not much difference with s8 charging speed

Mine charged in 1h 45 min from 1 to 100% is that normal or to slow.

It's quick, but my previous phone had the slow charging feature.

Slower than Note 5

It's pretty quick, but I honestly feel like my Note 5 was faster. BUT(!), that's because there is an extra 500mAh on this baby so obviously it takes a little longer, but the actual amount of power "flowing" in is probably better.

faster than my old pixel XL

note 8 was 1:40 and had 3200 battery so 1:45 seems ok
but the phone is charging slower when in use like hte note 8 it must be so precaution.. since note 7

Okay then is my charging good thnx all

My V20 charged faster than this but otherwise this S9+ is amazing .

Your V20 has a smaller battery so it would make sense that it would charge faster.

Can i use quick charge 4 adapter?

Not quick enough in 2018 when several other phones charge faster. QC2.0 is not enough.

That seems normal. Mines about the same.

take around 1 hour n 40 minutes

I have the snapdragon version, does it support quick charge 4.0? I read that the processor does. I understand that the phone supports qc 2.0, but maybe it's only for the exynos version

Charging time test for Oppo R7 plus?!

How much time does it take to fully charge R7 plus from 0

About 40 minutes in my experience. even less when turned off.

It's so fast to take only 40 minute to charge the phone with this big battery!!!
Really, Do you have R7 plus ??
Proud owner yes ! :d
Oppo uses a VooC 4 amp fast charger. It is currently the fastest in the industry. The phone does not heat up while charging but the charger does get warm. It comes with a special proprietary charging cable. If you use normal cable and charger, then it will slow charge.

Samsung wireless charging battery case

So for the s7 edge I opted to get the mophie battery case because neither was water resistant and the mophie charged faster and gave more protection. With the Note 7 the mophie one isnt out yet, but the samsung one does have water resistance now. With 3100 mah i think itll be enough to get some good screen on time. It does come halfway charged so i recommend charging it before use. It works as simple as putting it on and turning it on.
I purchased this on amazon with prime shipping because the samsung website is so backed up they couldnt even give me a date when they might send it.
First up is the packaging. Its nothing special just the normal samsung packaging we've grown accustomed to.
Package contents
How it looks installed
Side comparison view
Bottom view (doesnt cover usb type c port)
Overall this will do its job but dont expect very much protection as the front is totally exposed. The charging is very slow. It does make the phone both heavier and thicker as is to be expected and makes 1 handed use harder but its a phablet so who cares. I do reccomend this case, but it is a tad expensive. On the other hand though you have to pay to play. Let me know what ya'll think. Will you get one?
Here is the amazon link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ICERRPG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_.B2VxbV2D5CCX
Sorry for some of the pics looking bad, i think photobucket messed em up. Shots taken on z force
Congrats man... Can you please let us know how does the battery lasts? From what i i know it does say battery is 3100mAh but on the back its also written that usable is a lot less than 3100. Anyhow let us know how much total time you could get without plugging it back in.
Also can you confirm does the backpack charges wirelessly or no.
From what I read this only outputs at 1.0a which is gonna be reaaaally slow compared to the standard 2.0a or fast charge. Does it show any specs on the box anywhere?
The backpack itself does not charge wirelessly, only charges the phone wirelessly.

It is slow, but the way i look at it is, does it need to be super fast if its on your phone like all day?
About 3 hrs to full from 16 percent.. idk if it would even make it to full if you are using it but there you go.

I had this for one day and took it back for the Samsung fast charge power brick. The case made the phone very warm and just slowed the drain of the phones battery while in use.

Yeah at one point I was just cruising Facebook and I kept getting notifications about the device charging too slow. And this was while on wifi with the display at about 50%
Alright, so update. The charger doesnt charge fast we all get that. But it does work well enough that i started today at 500am and it is now 624pm with what i would consider pretty heavy usage. Probably a good 5 hrs screen on time and my phone is at 61 percent with the charger totally depleted, i started the charger at about 80 percent battery. I didnt browse the internet too much i was playing a game called dokkan battles pretty much the whole time with screen at about 25 percent brightness because the room i work in is dark. Just some figures for you guys i will keep updating as info is necessary.
As far as the power bricks go they are nice. And significantly faster, but i like not having to carry them around or plug them in, just one button and im charging.
I think for less than half the price with more capacity and 1.8a output, I would rather have this. It isn't waterproof and no access to spen though.

That could be legit
the samsung backpack charges the phone from 0 to roughly 40% - just tested it with my completely drained note 7 - charging....did not use while charging......turned phone on - battery level was 41% on the phone for about 30 seconds, then dropped to 40%.....
backpack was completely drained at the end of this.
i agree with the OP that it is MUCH easier to have this on the back of the phone rather than lugging around a power bank and cord. however, the backpack battery case is really expensive given the mAH it provides.....
i bought two of them b/c i'm on the phone all day talking to clients from my car.....my two cents is that the cost is worth the convenience, but most others will likely disagree......
cheers.

I'm just curious, if you're in your car, why can't you just get a fast charger for your car and charge it while you're in the car?

Cords.....hate having to plug snd unplug. Also in in and out of my car all day. This way I have one backpack on my phone while the other one is connected to my fast charger in my car....
My Samsung backpack charger took the phone from 20% to full with 1 dot left. I changed wireless charging settings to slow charge only. Used it a few times while charging for light stuff. Gets a little warm while charging. I'm pretty happy with it. No cables and has pass through charging if you need it. Makes it twice as heavy though. I recommend it.

Charging speed is fine and fast.

I'm finding it slow despite the fact it displays fast charging while using official cable and charger. My Note 8 is so much faster.
Mine 2 XL was really slow,It took 2h to charge from 30% to 100%.
A Youtuber points out the same issue, he got 2h 30m to charge 2 XL from 0% to 100%.
According to what I have seen from YouTube reviewers, charging speed is ridiculous (not in a good way). How can I possibly leave my Oneplus 5 dash charge for this?? Sigh.
For me it charges quite quickly up to 95%, but the last 5% are a drag. And I'm using the cable and charger that came with the phone.
My OG XL charged much quicker!
Wow, the bad news is just piling on. I might have to cancel my pre-order.
please calm down a bit. Charging slow the last part after 80% or so is not bad but very good because it saves your battery. There is nothing to prevent this so if OP5 charges the last part faster the battery will wear out faster.

Yes, they are supposed to throttle the charging after it hits a certain percentage (sounds like 80 in this case) but once it gets high enough the high amps can damage the battery, possibly overcharge it etc. 2.5 hours from 0%-100% doesn't sound terrible to me but maybe I'm not as picky as most....
Did anyone try charging the phone with a Quick Charge 3.0 compatible charger to see if there's any difference?
Mine charges between 2500-2800 mAh before the threshold with the screen off, around 1000 mAh with the screen on.
When charging at home, it takes 2hrs from 20%-100%. I just started charging it at work, and it shot up from 20%-85% in 15 mins. Now it's charging slowly going to 100%.
What kind of mA are y'all getting? Seems around 2000 at best which is pretty underwhelming. Half that with screen on...
This is with the out of box charger.
I want the good camera but man does op5 do so many things better than this at half the price. ?

I feel the same way. OP5T could potentially be better in most segments except for the camera which obviously is the best thing about the Pixel 2.
Asking again, did someone try to charge the phone with a Quick Charge 3.0 compatible charger to see if there's any difference?

Dont have my Pixel 2 xl yet but I'm also thinking about getting OP5t instead.
Better Display, better charging time, overclocked processor, less bezels all in all less issues .. :/ Not sure anymore.

Yep. Not sure anymore is exactly where I'm at unfortunately.
At this point, I've decided to just wait until December-January to see if anything changes with the quality of the screens/issues with the Pixel 2XL, if it gets better - I'll definitely get it, if not? See what the reviews for the 5T say and get it instead if they'll be positive.
I really, really wanted the new Pixels to be a smash hit and was ready to place my pre-order right away, but I'll let time to its thing for now since there's WAY TOO much negative surrounding the 2XL and for a good reason I guess.
you are paying the premium for camera these days. op5 pretty much does everything else better imo even with jelly scrolling.
Just plugged my phone in now. 74% and it says 52 minutes until charged. :-/

Guys the latest version update of Indian phones (honor 7x) includes gyroscope..
Yes!! Download the update and enjoy the VR..
U can check the suppprt after update by sensor box app in play store..
Around 3.5 hours with high speed charger. My other phone only takes 1 hour 30 minutes having the same battery output.
The charging speed has improved after 2 months since I got this device. I'm using the included charger. Not Moto G4 speed but good enough for my needs.
does Kirin 659 supports fast charging?
i read online that Maimang 6, nova 2 ( whicha have kirin 659) support fast charge. Is there any possibility in honor 7x , fast charge can be enabled via a firmware update?

Heat

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Honor 7X stays cool under extended heavy use.

A Little Advice..
If you do indeed have heat while charging with the OEM charger or light gaming.. and you are still within your 15 return / replace policy ( at least that's what it is when you purchase from the Honor U.S.A. website ) you need to swap out your unit or get your refund.
Heat is ALWAYS an early precursor to a shorter than normal lifespan.
If you are ok with this, or plan to sell the 7X in lieu of something else later this year.. then it's not that big of a deal.
For those that plan to make this a 1 to 2 year device.. and you can still return / exchange it.. I would advise that you do so.
All phones heat up these days. Especially during charge or heavy use. All said honor 7x don't heat up much.
