Why does the iPhone 7 plus take so fucking long to charge? I

>>62005436
Why isn't the Galaxy S8 series in this chart? Is it because the entire lineup charges so quickly that it would be embarrassing to show it alongside the iPhone 7's shit charge time?

It takes so long to charge because Lightning is a terrible standard.

Because Apple's includes 1A charger, you need to get a 3rd party 2.4A if you want it to be faster.

Where's OnePlus?

Cheap cable and 1A charger.

The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus have a maximum charging rate of 1.2A, using a 2.4A charger over a 1A charger will only lower charging time by 20% at most.

>>62007723
All the way at the top not shown in graph.

Found your problem.

>>62005436
One plus 3t is one of the fastest charging phones out there...? You're comparing against the absolute best and not taking anything else into account, yes less than the best will lose.

I think the amount of usable phone time gained per minute spent charging is the same on the 7 and the 7+, the 7+ just has a large capacity.

Either way, not something to return a phone over but hey you do you buddy.

>>62005436
I'd rather take a slow charging battery that lives for 5 years rather a fast charging one that dies in less than 1.

>>62005436
Faster the charge, lower the life of battery.

iPhone charges fast if the battery is drained and than tails off when it hits 60-70%. This is to keep the battery cool and not overheat it.

As a result, your iphone battery will easily outlast other batteries by 2+ years.

Nope, Note 4 here. 1st battery lost half its capacity in 9 months. 2nd battery for 2 years now, still like new when charging via a PC overnight.

How do you figure that? My 7+ pulls over 2A when needed and available. Haven't timed it myself but looking at other tests online it seems like it'd charge from 0-100 in about 2 hours, which is a lot better than 3 hours.

I don't see a problem with that.
The only time you really charge your phone is at night anyways.

>>62010161
POORDROIDS BTFO!!!

>>62010161
It doesn't. I got one of those USB measuring things and it maxes out at 1.2A.

Meanwhile my chink phone with dash charge charges to 100% in an hour.

Appletoddlers perpetually blown the fuck out.

>>62010202
>appletoddlers
What kind of insult is that? People who use apple literally have a life over some faggot on the internet using a chink phone.

>>62010195
Then you've got a shitty charger, shitty cable, or your phone is broken.

>>62010202
Don't be surprised if your battery dies in 6 months. But then again 4 chink phones in 2 years is still cheaper than 1 iphone in 2 years.

I fell for the xiaomeme and the battery died in a little less than a year using the 2A charger.

>>62010221
iPad charger, iPhone cable.
Fuck off bullshitter and kill yourself.

At 30 minutes the Oneplus is at 60% and iPhone is still struggling at 20%.

probably because this review and chart were made when the 7plus first came out.

Thinking isn't hard, right?

>>62009919
Still proved it goes over 1.2A. So you should probably just shut the fuck up now.

>>62010375
>>62010466
What's your average from 0 to 100%? I can't remember the source but this website tested the 7+ in airplane mode with a lightning 2.4A anker charger and cable and on average it pulled 1A from the socket. The 3T was able to pull an average of 2.4W from the socket with the dash charger.

Also does anyone have proof that the dash charger causes the battery to overheat, doesn't it have heat dissipation built into the charger or something?

>>62010511
Never timed it. It's typically no lower than 80% (grab it off the charger in the morning, it sits in a mount connected to the head unit in the car, charge it at the office). Even if I go the whole day without charging it's >50% at the end.

>>62010202

What's the fucking problem?

iPhones rarely need to be charged.

>>62010571
lol

>>62005436
You're spending entirely too much money to not know how different charging technologies work

>>62010567
Oh ok. Well I hope Apple introduces fast charging sometime soon, that and poor battery life for typical use seems to be the biggest reason why people avoid iPhones altogether.

>>62010346
Find a better job if you can't charge your phone while you work

>>62010602
Yeah, no one is buying iPhones.
What the fuck did I just read?

>>62010591
Tell that to apple. They could have had at least QC 2.0 @ 5V/2.0A by now.

>>62010613
>find a job with a 2 hour lunch break instead of 30 minutes
lol

>>62010602
Yeah, I was hoping they'd roll out USB-C with USB-PD charging but it looks like the next crop is still lightning. QC looks like it's complete crap with regards to compatibility, so I'm not upset it doesn't support that.

*most people

Sorry, I'm pretty tired from digging all day in 35C weather fixing a broken main water pipe.

>>62010641
QC 2.0 is fully compatible with standard 2.4A chargers. In fact many phones like the LG K20 Plus have it now. Not as good as dash charging but still better than what apple currently has.

>>62010726
Everyone I know that has QC-capable phones has problems with random chargers that are supposed to support QC. Some work, some don't.
USB-PD can't replace this crap soon enough.

>>62010783
Well some implementations of QC have found their way on budget 4XX and 6XX qualcomm series SoCs that don't require QC certified chargers, just an amperage rating of 2.4. This implementation only averages the charging amperage to 1.4 which is 40% faster than the standard 1.0A found in most cheap phones and on iPhones.

Anyway dash charging should be the standard of fast charging tech. There's rumours of oneplus making a new dash charger that charges a standard 3.7V 3,000 mAh battery from 0 to 80% in just 20 minutes. I would kill for charging speed that fast desu.

Stay poor

>>62010993
That sounds like amazing iOS and firmware programming.

Bravo apple.

>>62010726
Qualcomm charging is just some alternative garbage so they could get their buck instead of USB power delivery spec (specifically for USB-C PD spec) which is absolutely the best option

>>62011043
How does it deal with heat? Currently dash charging is the coolest fast charging technology that I'm aware of.

>>62011086
It's 5 or 12 volts with a maximum of 60 and 100 watts respectively.
Nothing else.
Don't be fooled, this is electricity were talking about, it's not new onepluselectricity

>>62011102
You can't just pump 12 AMPs in a phone battery you dingus. I'm asking how do they reduce all the heat USB-C PD will create in a battery so it can charge safely without risk of the battery exploding?

Dash uses the charging cable itself to channel some of the heat the battery produces or something.

>>62011220
That's not USB-PD's problem
Use parallel batteries and shout "4 TIMES FASTER THAN ONE CELL" like everyone else
The heat you're talking about is actually the conversion from 5v USB to whatever cell configuration voltage the phone may be, it's historically been inside the phone, allowing for flexibility and USB backwards compatible charging
Someone decided to put it on the other end of the cable and suddenly everyone loses their minds

>>62011220
The point isn't "USB PD spec is 100 watts so it must charge a phone at 100 watts" you dumbass, it's to get the world on the same page, the same power delivery standard as actual USB spec, so we don't have these chink false standards popping up to turn a profit

>>62011220
Well who's the dumbasses still using 1s batteries for phones anyways?
If the phone battery charged at native 12v USB C spec instead of bucking down from 5v-native to 4.25v then you wouldn't even need a transformer heating up everything, all the blame would just be on the battery tech

>>62010081
/g/ doesn't shill Lenovo/Dell, /g/ shills Thinkpads/Latitudes. That chart is comparing a company who only makes premium laptops to companies that make everything from $200 Chromebooks to $5000 workstations.

>>62011286
Hmmm well if it can outperform dash charging then I'm all for it.

Like straight up, mandarin sounds like scooby doo

>>62005436
Slow charging = longer battery life
Fast charging = shorter battery life
Yes it's that simple no magic here.
This is also why not everyone includes fast charging(it's easy and cheap asf to make but it's actually a worse deal for the consumer).

>>62012341
Well I mean the ratio is actually more about charging amperage + total capacity
both effective charging speed and capacity go up together
C-rating charging is pretty much standard nowadays for per-cell charging

not charging while you sleep
are you dumb or just pretending

>>62009919
Dumb meme. Lithium ion batteries can take a 3-5C charge rate under the right conditions without shortening the lifespan. The only issue is battery heating, which happens mostly because phones typically put the charge regulation inside the device, and the mosfet switching is lossy. The OnePlus 3 dash charge solves this problem by having all the regulation in the power adapter and putting a higher voltage over the usb cable. You can be charging absurdly fast while using the phone and it hardly gets warm.

The biggest detriment to phone battery lifespan is actually using a case. The thick plastic and silicone cases people put on their phones kills the thermal design and funnels way more heat from the tungsten forge that is a modern SOC right into the battery. Every time someone hands me their cased phone the touchscreen is uncomfortably warm. Long term, that will do more damage than even shitty quick charge schemes that put the regulation load right next to the cell.

>>62012341
3.5 hrs is too long to charge.
I think the S7 has a great charge speed for the battery life it gives.

>>62005436
Dont charge them to 100%, their batteries live longer if you leave them at ~50-80%

>>62009964
Jesus, why are laptops so shit? Numbers like that would never be acceptable for desktops.
