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.
Hi everyone I own a Poco X3 nfc. Today after having charged it to 100% with its original charger I disconnect it and after about 10 minutes I unlock the screen and notice that the battery is at 47%. How could it have halved so quickly? Should I contact support or is it a known bug? Thanks to those who will answer me
That's NOT RIGHT...
I've had my Poco X3 off the charger for 24 hours, in standby with WIFI, GPS and Bluetooth active and a live wallpaper and have only just hit 94%...
Granted I have not really used it, screen on really drains it fast, but most apps won't drain a battery in 10 minutes more than 50%.
It usually takes an hour or 2 of intense gaming to drain my battery like that...

It's a defective battery. Use your warranty ASAP
Hello,
I just got my Poco X3, running MIUI 12.0.7, yesterday but it felt like the battery was draining faster than it should. I checked the stats and it says android system contributed about 12% of that usage with a total CPU time of 3h 18min. Is that normal?
Even if that is normal, something is definitely wrong. Since I took the screenshot, exactly half an hour has passed, I did a reboot after taking the screenshot and since then it went from 64% to 59% in those 30 minutes with nothing more than mobile data active and screen brightness fixed at around 10-15%.
Try this. It was the first thing I did after staring my new device. I have around 8-11 hours of SOT. Stock Miui 12.0.7.
praveenkumar-rv.me
Since the phone is brand new, the Battery needs time to calibrate itself. It will take a few cycles to adjust. Don't worry about the Android System usage, it will settle after a while.
If the usage is still unusually high after a week, please post back here in this thread with SoT and same battery graph.
SoT for Indian Poco is around 10-13 Hours.
SoT for Poco X3 NFC is around 7-9 Hours.
Enjoy your Poco.
My SOT is even worse than yours.

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 )

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.
I have a problem with my POCO X3 Pro, it won't charge or will charge slowly.
The last few days my POCO X3 Pro charges slowly on every charger I try. For comparison it charged 53% from 21h to 7h.
I was using my phone today but is was almost dying (2%) so i got the charger, the charging icon appeared, so it charges. The phone turned off because of its low battery, normally it doesn't do this, I can go on with everything I want normally. Then repeatedly trying to turn it on, it then turns on with the low battery icon and turns off after like 1,5 seconds or so. I got it to turn on three times, but after like 20 seconds the battery was empty again and i needed to wait for like 5 minutes for it to turn on again. I just got it back on, but it doesn't show that it's charging, and dies after half a minute.
Does anyone know a solution? Please help!!

Assuming you use the stock charging brick and chord, the possible reasons for this are:
1. Your battery is damaged. Maybe it expanded or has a high charge cycle causing it to no longer hold sufficient charge.
2. Your charging port could be damaged.
3. You're close to getting a bricked phone as the PMIC could be going bonkers.
Either way, it's better to get your phone checked by going to the nearest service center.
