Samsung Wireless Fast Charger

[amyf27]

Ok this is the first length of time I've had with my new Samsung Wireless Fast charger. When I plug it into an electrical strip that has other plugs, over a half hour period it only charges up 20 % . Is there a trick to these. With or without case doesnt seem to matter. With my note 5 I had a wall adapter from a Nexus 6 and it charged the phone in full within that time frame.

Remember, Wireless Fast Chargers are NOT as fast as a Quick Charge wall charger. They're actually closer in speed to 'normal' wall chargers.

Ok. This is my first time with it. Im ok with it but since it said fast charge I was surprised it's not that fast lol

It's faster than the older versions

Ok so it's similar to wireless internet vs cabled internet

Alright. It's gone up 40% in 2 hours. Yes I'm using the phone but when I had the Note 5 Id have it Is plugged in charging and it would be done within an hr

Also remember that since the S7 line the phone goes into 'standard charging' speed to avoid overheating if the screen is on. It only allows faster charges if the screen is off.
