Trade in terms , will you send in your charger ?

[VidJunky]

Sure. It just won't charge as quickly as a 45w charger.

Speaking of, I've been watching charging comparison videos and 45W is not all it is cracked up to be. One might think that at almost double the wattage the charging time would be cut almost in half or even by a third but there is barely any difference at all.

In one video they used a standard cable and the charging time was mere minutes apart, like 7 minutes or something silly like that. In another they specifically mentioned that there is a heavier cable that you must have to get the full 45W charging. In that video the charging time was barely 12 minutes difference between the S21U and the S22U. 1 hour 14 minutes vs. 1 hour 2 minutes respectively. OnePlus smoked them all with its 80W charger at 37 minutes.

In the video where they didn't use the thicker cable the times were even closer.

OnePlus smoked them all with its 80W charger at 37 minutes.

What percentage did they start at? If that was a zero to full charge in 37 minutes, I'd be concerned that OnePlus is going to smoke the battery. That kid of charge rate on a Li-ion battery would be very detrimental to overall longevity, if not result in things going boom.

I posted the video over in a thread I just started, butt yeah they were all at zero to start.

Traded in two Sammy devices. Neither one came with a charger, so no. I won't be sending in any chargers.

The biggest difference is at the beginning of the charge cycle assuming the battery is very low. Total charge time doesn't vary much.

My trade in was note 10+, it also was accepted without a charger. Directions said to send in phone only.
It still had the screen protector on it and was as good as when it was new and I left it on.

Never would've known had this not been posted. Says applicable and seeing that I continue to use the chargers I have regardless of the phones I buy I take it as not being applicable to me lmao.

 

[Venom0642]

With AT&T doesn't require the adapter, all they want is phone, like i do every year no issues at all.
