Cancelled the 45W charger

[j_hansen]

After waiting for over 2 months I ended up cancelling the 45W charger, the EU 2 pin plug charger seems available everywhere, but the UK/IE 3 pin is nowhere to be seen.
Considering that I have wireless chargers everywhere, including a 15W wireless in the car AND a 45W PD one that'll charge 25W on the Note 10 plus, 3 power banks, the included 25W charger in my living room, it simply didn't make sense to to wait for it any longer, I saw black Friday deals of 31 Euro for the EU 2 pin one so I thought the nearly 50 euros I paid over 2 months ago was better to have back in my account, we'll probably get it for free with the Note 11 anyways.
Rant Over

From what I've been reading on the differences in charge times, you're not missing much anyway.

No you're right, the bigger difference in charging speed is from 5% - 65% or along those lines and i hardly ever end up under 50% so I'll manage just fine with what I have.
What have me puzzled though is why Samsung is so slow about getting the 3 pin version to market, launch was nearly 4 months ago now

No clue, but I've seen this a lot lately from various manufactures on phones and accessories. I'm not sure if just poor planning, or if it's a new shift towards padding their "available" lettings, or maybe to generate hype well before an actual release. Whatever the case, I can sympathise with your frustration.

No frustration at all anymore here Mooncat
I had to settle for 256gb instead of 512gb as well because I wanted the 5G version and after a bit of a clean up I haven't needed anywhere near 512gb anyway, I did stick a 256gb SD card in it though.

the charge times only really matter if youre actually using the device while charging.... Like me im a truck driver and i constantly have hotspot running on my note 10+ and have multiple devices tether to it. The 45w charger works way faster in this case and makes it actually a good buy.

The total difference is around 10mins if im not mistaken.... 25w vs 45w...only 10mins difference hahaha.

My first post stated clearly "The total difference is around 10mins if im not mistaken". All it would take is Google it. A lot of results would show up. But instead you decided to say that i was running my mouth acting like i know. Smh.

I have both. it makes a drastic difference when the phone is almost dead, but otherwise its negligible. considering the battery typically last me through the work day, and I really only charge it at night or maybe for a quick top off, I don't think i'd spend the money on the 45w again.

Users stated the 45W is noticeably faster when its charging from 0 to lets say 50.but from 0 to 100. The difference is minor. And what you stated was what i meant. But some nob just couldnt digest it well enough.

It would take a noob (or someone with stock in a battery company) to keep discharging a lithium battery down to 0%. Or even 20%.

Ended up buying the 45W charger again, price had dropped from 55 to 37 Euro and free delivery, so just thought... Why not..
I do like that it can charge both my phone and chromebook
