I find fast wireless charging to be pretty slow. It is faster than regular wireless charging but much slower than qc 2.0

I hope I don't overcharge this new phone.
YESSSSSSSS for this perfect oval.Hmm. I never noticed this with mine. This is what mine says when it has the screen on and is on a wireless charger:
No problem! Let's see if I can answer it all
1) QC and Adaptive Fast Charging are basically the same thing: Fast Charging. They're just different names given by different companies. QC, the most generic of the two, has several revisions and QC2 (currently what Samsung's AFC is based upon) is slower than QC3.
2) USB-C will let you use Fast Charging.
3) Wireless charging is slower than a normal, wired charger, so people tend to assume that because a wireless charger has 'fast charging' slapped on it, they'll have the same charging speeds as a wired QC or AFC charger. They won't. A Wireless Fast Charger is closer in charging speeds as a normal, non-QuickCharging 2A wired charger. So a 'Fast' wireless charger will just charge your phone like a normal charger would, just faster than a normal wireless charger would. 'True' Fast Charging can only come (right now) from wired chargers equipped to do so. The charger included with the Note 7 will be Fast-Charging-enabled.
Spookdroid, great response. Thank you for the info. Never used wireless charging but would like to use it by the bed with the N7 on the Samsung wireless fast charger at night. Is that a good idea as far as battery longevity? I like to have the battery fully charged when I leave in the morning plus would like to use the phone as a nightstand clock. ThanksNo problem!

It says that, but it's defaulting to a slower charge when the screen is on. Test it manually by observing or with an amperage app.Hmm. I never noticed this with mine. This is what mine says when it has the screen on and is on a wireless charger:

Quite significant. Like 1.5 to 2x faster. This is with the Samsung fast charging stand.Seriously? Like a measurable amount?
And if FC isn't really great for your battery, it's QC any better?

I had the fast wireless charging stand from Samsung.I thought wireless stands were slower?

I care mainly about 25-75/80% since that is enough for me. That chart proves my point... The wired is about 1.5 to 2x faster than the fast wireless charging. The chart shows roughly 70-75% faster charging from 25% to 75%.I think he meant 'normal' wireless VS fast wireless.
Here's a chart from Phandroid. Fast Wireless is closer to a 'normal' wired one.
