Charging Time of S3

[JosefofColorado]

I am really looking at geeting the S3, Currently I am using the boring Iphone 4s had all the EVO's but took too long to charge from 0-100% (4 Hours on the LTE) The 4s takes half the time and the battery life is better.

Speaking of the Battery, lIfe is not the only issue but also battery charge time. If your phone is always charging then draining fast whats the use.

How has the Charge time for the S3 been ?

From 1% to 100% it seems to take a little over 2 hours....

Thats what i've experienced thus far.

Hope that helps

When I went to bed yesterday, it was at like 58% and I set it to charging. I decided 10 minutes later that I couldn't sleep so I took it out from charging and it was at 67%. Not exactly the best trial but hopefully that helps somewhat

2:30 from 0 to 100% for me the other day

Yeah, same here at about 2.5 hours to fully charge my S3 from an outlet.

Plugging it into a USB port, and charging it from my PC takes considerably longer. Nearly 4 hours charging from 20% - full.

You guys charge the battery from 0 to100% around 2 and a hour right ?
So you guys are using ICS 4.0.4 or JB 4.1.1 ???

May I know your S3 is using ICS 4.0.4 or JB 4.1.1 ???

I'm on jelly bean and use a 5 amp charger. It takes about 2-2.5 to charge it. It was closer to 3.5 - 4 on my stock charger.

I also using Jelly Bean and stock charger.
From 0 to 100% need more than 4 hours
After upgraded to Jelly Bean feel that the battery takes longer time to charge compared to ICS only need around 3 hours.

I don't use a plugin charger. I use a power bank made by powergen.
