How long does your S10+ take to fully charge?

[Jesus Delgadillo]

So I'm seeing the big difference there is in my phone charging with the screen off vs on and using it, and I wanna see if it's the same for y'all. If I need close to a full charge (15-30% of juice left) and I have the screen off the whole time, it takes about an hour and 20 minutes to charge to 100%. But if I charge it while I'm listening to music and playing games, watching YT or on social media apps the whole time, it takes about 3 hours to charge completely. Is that the case for y'all as well?

I've never actually timed it but that does sound about right to me.

With the screen off and a fast charge you get about 1%/minute. Doing stuff on the phone like using Waze it doubles or triples the time to charge.

Yeah that's what I noticed, so there's nothing wrong with my charging length?

Can’t say i’ve Used it when it’s charging and it’s always done wireless. 1 hour, 41 mins fast wirelessly although seeing as it’s when i go bed maybe i should turn off fast wireless charging.

Why turn off the fast wireless charging? Is it better to charge at regular rate? If so, based on what?

I wouldn't even know cause battery life is amazing. Always gets through the whole day and goes on the wireless charger at night.

I'm not sure either but it does charge up fast..I usually charge 1 day half

Exynos or SD?

You don't need to but fast charge takes only 1 hour, 40 mins to charge and with being on bed for 6-8 hours don't really need it to fast charge quickly. I may leave it on as I don't think hurts the battery either way and even if it did I upgrade phones every year so won't matter too much

That's because it doesn't fast charge while you're using it and you're also using the device which make it take longer.

Do you think it's better for the long term battery life to regular rate vs fast charge?

Slower charging should help but most of the fast charging methods are within acceptable charging ranges that shouldn't kill battery longevity that much.
