How long should I charge my S7 for when it comes out of the box?

[AC Question]

When I get my S7, how long should I charge it for right out of the box?

Welcome to the forums. I would let it charge until it's done. Different phones will have different levels.

My S7 (from Best Buy) came with a free Samsung wireless charger (NOT the fast charging charger). It's super super slow. It's so slow I've yet to be able to leave the phone on it long enough to get a full charge. I finally pulled out the usb cable and got it to 100% (from 72%) in just under 30 minutes. I think my next accessory will be a FAST charging charger!

They always say "charge it 8 hours", I think it's the same in this phone

Until it reaches 100%. Once it's fully charged, leaving it on the charger longer won't charge the battery any further. It won't hurt anything, but it's not like leaving it on for 8 hours is going to cram a few more mAmps into it.

It became a habit for me to use the phone out of the box setting it all up, customizing, etc. until it drops below 10% and then fully charge it.

Like I said not sure if it helps and don't know why I bother it's not like I'm going to keep it to notice the difference. Habit.
