Mine is very very slow, sometimes only added 1% after an hour of fast charging.
Though when i turn off fast charging on the phone, it charges normally (faster than when fast charging is switched on).
I'm using the Samsung original fast charger (the new tilted model) by the way.
Anyone experiencing the same problem? looks like a firmware issue?
Most times you have to reposition the phone until it says that it's actually fast wireless charging. Kinda Irritating. Also make sure the fast wireless option is turned on in the settings.

No such problems here. Drop it on the fast charger as it lands and away it goes in fast charger mode. Are you sure you have it enabled in settings......

What charger are you using? Are you verifying each time that it's actually fast charging?

I use a Samsung fast wireless charger. Now I also remember that if you don't have the Samsung one then go to your local store where they do have one and land your phone on it. I read that the fast charging wireless feature only starts working after you use a genuine Samsung fast wireless charger, but remains functional thereafter.
Yes it says fast charging and I can tell by the short time from empty to full charge (usually around 1.5 hours) approximately.

yes as mentioned i'm using the original samsung wireless fast charger, the latest model which it's at an angle so there won't be the problem of misplacement. and yes again fast charging is turned on, cables, adapter are all original stuff that came with the phone.......

S7 Edge (Exynos), using Samsung tilted wireless charger with phone original adapter / cable. Phone it's saying fast wireless charging, but is only fully charging in about 4.5 - 5 hours (starting from 10% or lower).
Tests from 45% took same, about 2.5-3 hours.
Charging by cable: about 1.5 to 2 hours. Also saying fast charging.
Samsung is waiting for me with phone and charger to test them in their shop.
Will keep you updated.
agreed, have noticed that it occasionally shows normal charging rate when in fact attached to a quick charge source... reboot/replug always seems to fix but I've learned to check each time I plug it in so that I don't come back in an hour to find it's barely moved

Fast charging by cable, normally takes ~100mins from 0-100% on S7 Edge. However, my S7E has the same problem as yours with mine charging at average 25% per hour with and without the wireless fast charge option checked.
Mine took approx 7 hours to complete a charge. Is this normal?
After few months of using this phone, i recently tried turning off fast charge, just because. However i was shocked to see it charges way too slow.
The fast charging works fine, however. Around 1h 30mins or so. I use the stock charger that came with the phone.
Would like to hear how long yours took to fully charge, and whether i should be worried?
P/s. this is my first post here. I've searched with multiple keywords but no results of the standard charging time, so if there's an answered thread, please drop the link.
Thanks in advance,
Dan

This is also the same here. What wonders me if why can a cheap (7$) car charger which is 2.1A charge the phone 3-4 times faster than the original charger (both without fast charging)?

There are 3 charging times:
- 1.5h with Quick Charge enabled
- 2h with a good USB 2A cable and stock charger (I am using the Amazon Kindle Fire 2A cable and the stock charger and I get 2h time with Quick Charge disabled)
- 7h with poor quality cables and/or less than 2A chargers.

7 hours? That's ridiculous. My S7 edge charges in 2 hours without fast charging. Never used fast charging, so don't know how much time that takes.
Most probably there's a fault in your cable. Take it to Samsung Service center and get it replaced.
Is it just me or the S8 charge slow. I'm coming from a Note 5 and it charges pretty damn quick. Right now I'm at 53% and the phone says approximately 55 minutes till full.

That sounds about right.
Fast charging is great when the phone is at a low percentage, as the percentage increases the charging speed decreases.
Overall charge from 0% should be 1 hour 30 minutes -ish or somewhere in that range.
Test it.
It definitely charges slow, my 8+ included. There's a conversation about it on the Samsung support forum. It's definitely not intended behavior, as it'll still charge slow at low percentages. It never reaches the 2000mA rate that it should.

Based on my testing (I'll verify again tonight with pictures)
Quick charge 2.0/3.0
Screen on - 5v/1A
Screen off 9v/1.67A
USB C cable charging
Screen on 5v/1.5A
Screen off 9v/1.8A
The phones are QC 2.0 which means they're limited to I believe max 18 watts charging rate which would be 9v/2A with the screen off

2.0? Like the s6? Mine charges so much slower than my old s6. Took over 3 hours to charge 50% yesterday, screen off almost the whole time.

Yeah Samsung for some reason did not activate QC 3.0 or even 4.0 on the S8(so stupid but seeing the NOte 7 battery issue, they're probably being cautious)
The S6 only had a 2550mAh battery vs the S8 that has a 3000mAh battery so yeah the S6 is definitely going to charge "faster"
Pick up a USB C multi-meter and see what the charger is outputting to your phone
This is the one I bought (I am not affiliated with them - just showing which one I purchased)

3 hours to 50? Are you using the brick in the box? cable from the box?
That is not normal.

Stock brick and cable. The same thing happens with the brick and charger included in the wireless fast charging, and the wireless fast charger itself.

Go to settings, device maintenance, click battery, click the 3 dot menu (top right), select advanced settings and check if fast cable charging is enabled.

Both are enabled and while charging it says it's fast charging. It even gives a reasonable charge time like 52 minutes, but even the estimate is off by a lot.

Has anyone found and tried USB-C cables that support high-power 5a and for sale in the USA? https://www.startech.com/ca/Cables/usb-c/usb-c-usb-3-1-cable-power-delivery~USB31C5C1M
To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Nokia 7 Plus can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

takes about half an hour or so as far as I can remember 8/10
Charges really fast, thanks to 18W charger. Although on cable connected to computer, very slow

You compare 9v 2A(18w) vs 5v 0.5A(2.5W) PC usb? ...obviously it's slow with a pc charge

From mathematical standpoint 30 mins for 0-100% is impossible with 18W charger, let me make it a bit clear
It has a 3.800mAh battery or 3.8Ah for short, which means if it had a 5v 3.8A charger it would take 1 hour if the charger and delivery system(cable+chips inside phone etc) were delivering 100% efficiency. Now 5v 3.8A is 19W charger. For half an hour we need 5v 7.6A or 38Watt.
According to Quick charge which is present in this phone it can be charged at 9v 2A or 18W, so even if the phone has 100% efficiency it would take a bit more than 1 hour to complete 0-100% but because each system can't deliver 100% efficiency calculate to 1hr and 1-20 mins give or take
P.S. half an hour, wish but ain't possible unless we have 9v 4.2A charging with 100% efficiency(or 5v 7.6A if you prefer) - Still going to get this phone soon(if price drops to my desire)
Just charged 25% to 100% took around 1 hour
I have here the test i made 100% to 11% took 6h34m SOT, charging from 11% to 49% took 25 minutes from 11% to 82% took 59 minutes, from 11% to 98% took 1h36m.

Just got it yesterday...
Drained it fully so it died...
Then 0 to 53 % in 35 mins flat...
I think the last 10%( from 90 to 100} takes a big effort.
Just tested with LG V20's Fast Charger of 18W.
Fast charging works. confirmed.
But not with OnePlus 3T's Charger.
Will check the same with 5T's Charger and Update.

Yes OnePlus 3T, 5T does not work.
Also I was charging N7+ from 18% via LG V20's Charger and it got overheated and started malfunctioning. But thankfully there was a circuit breaker and protection circuit in LG's Charger which saved it. Device is working fine too. Now I am using the nokia charger provided in the box as none are working.

So that means if something happens to the current charger provided with the phone, we will have to buy a Nokia branded charger and cable or there would be issues. Hmm

Well, my Nokia 7 Plus charges quite fast but it gets very hot while charging. Today it overheated and started beeping.

I also meet this using oem cable. With nokia original cable is no issue.
I just got this device Thursday not a Dual SIM device
It charges fully in about 1hr and 30mins of charging adds quite a bit of power to the battery
if we use a PC it takes ages
is it safe to use fast charge daily?
Can we charge the device by a standard charger having 5v 1 amp rating with the USB type c cable plugged into it?

Yes, i use mine from a tablet at 5v and 1.5A. You can use any charger if it is 5v or if it is turbopower o fastcharge.
I also use my old LG's charger. 5v @1.8A. Im not really that into charging speed. One thing i noticed is that on both chargers when reaching 100% it says charged but still charges for another 15minutes before the charging icon (flash) disappears from the screen. Has anyone else noticed this?

Not the absolute fastest around, but damn sure not the slowest... especially when you consider how much further every 1% of battery will take you on this phone compared to other phones in its class. Fast charging kills batteries anyways, so I charge slowly most of the time since I'm always around a plug these days. I really wish I had this phone back in 2011 when I lived on a bicycle and was always on the road away from home and/or power. My only other gripe is that I wish there was a software switch to turn off fast charging like Samsung offered. Sometimes I only have a fast-charge enabled charger around, but would prefer a slow charge.

I don't slow charge in the traditional sense, but I use a QC 3.0 charger for the same reason. It maxes out at 3A to the battery, or 0.6C charge rate. It's still plenty fast, but slow enough relative to battery capacity that it doesn't stress the battery much and no need to worry about turning a setting off in the phone.
Im using 25w adapter PD to charge V60, charging speed is too slow, need above 3hours from 10-100.
Checking battery in hidden menu, saw charong current max is 1,7A, usually lower.
Normal adapter give me same speed (like a cheap samsung fast charge adapter).

I am having the exact same issue. Have you found any solutions yet? I am about to either return the device or change the battery and charge port. Although, I am not sure if it will help because it has 10 watt wireless charging and still maxes out at 6 watts on wireless.

iam using Xiaomi 33w adapter with a Baseus cable, dont use Xiaomi cable (with red color inside usb port, this cable hold 5V only) .
This combo charing my V60 fast (about 1h30 -2h). Its acceptable for me.
Now i dont mind about charing speed anymore.
Hey bro i hqve a 36 watt fast charger. I noticed that my phone charges in 1 hour 40 min before. Now it still ahows me 1 hour 40 min but it takes hours to charge..... It is still showing fast charging. It never happened before
