Charging speed - Redmi Note 8 Pro Real Life Review

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Redmi Note 8 Pro can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Can anybody please confirm that the phone does support the QC 4+ and not only QC 3.0 by testing charge with different chargers ?

You prefer to trust Xiaomi itself who made this device or other articles who said Xiaomi lie about charging speed and some articles said it support QC 4+

I just measured the time ,and about 2hours is needed to fully charged phone

it's too much time considering the fast charger

it took less than an hour for me from something below 30% to 99%.
edit: i can provide a gsam battery image if you like to.

I know..but his is how it is..

Note 8 pro does supports 18W fast charger. The charging speed is pretty good for me.

https://www.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro-teardown-confirms-quick-charge-3-0-support/

I did a test with my device. So at 4% battery, I put it in airplane mode. I used a 30W charger, with a USB Tip C - USB Tip C ports. It took 107 minutes to fully charge. Until 80%, the charging speed was about 13% per 10 minutes. After reaching 80%, the charging speed decreased. The phone reached 81% in 60 minutes. I logged the battery percentage and charging speed percentage every 10 minutes, and I included in a excel graphic. I attach this file. Maybe someone more tech savvy can understand more about the inner mechanism and if it is QC 3.0, 4.0 or whatever.

good

I have a QC4+ charger and a usb power monitor and it only shows QC3.0 on it`s display as the charging method on my 8pro.

I found it funny that using an old 10w charger takes about 15 minutes more to charge my device.
I keep using the old one as it produces less heat, and theoretically should prolong battery life.

Average charging speed with the fast charger provided with it, is 1 point rise per minute.

Which app is preferred to measure the current speed specially in Watts?

Z3C Battery Charging Thread

Hiya,
I' hoping this is the right section to post this in.
I don't have my Z3C yet, but I've been searching for information on charging speed, charging current etc. - and there is barely anything to be found. What seems to be consent: A full charge (0-100%) takes about three hours. But then, some people say an almost full charge (0-90%) takes much less, as charging current is greatly reduced for the last 10% to reduce stress on the battery. Sony itself also claims that a small charge (something like 0-10%) should be quite fast as well.
Then there's some speculation about QuickCharge 2.0 being used or not used, that you could use a Motorola 2.0A charger to charge it faster than with the provided 1.5A Sony charger etc., which also brings up the question which resistor values on the D+ and D- wires are necessary to toggle different charging currents. (Or I might be stupid and there's a standard for that by now, which is the same for all Qualcomm devices.)
To cut it short: I'd request those who have a Z3C to post some comments about their charging times, and at best even their charging currents. I used an app called BatteryMonitor on my Desire HD, I'm sure there's others around now that give the same information. If someone could try out different chargers and record charging current over time, maybe even with a pretty graph, it'd surely help all future discussions about chargers, docks, modifications, DIY charging issues etc.
[EDIT] I've created a similar thread over at the Z3 forums, as many things (such as resistor values and charging tactics) should be similar.
With the 1.5A charger it's almost the same speed as other flagships: about 1% per minute or so.
For quick charge, Qualcomm explains it here: https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapdragon/2014/06/04/quick-charge-20-has-arrived
Because it's more difficult for me to get the Moto Turbo Charger from where I live, I ordered another quick charger on the list and will see how it works.
Hope I will have time to report soon.

Sorry for the delay. It's obvious that QC 2.0 works only when battery is really low. Not sure it's Sony's control thru hardware, or kernel, or charger's control.

My Nexus 6p charging slowly according to the ampere app,its showing less current.help

Please help
Want to knw is it the app defect or my phn defect?
With my stock nexus 6p charger it showed me max current of 1500mah whats wrng?
The day i bought the device it showed me 2950mah.
A couple questions regarding your issue:
Is this the charger that came with the phone, USB Type-C on both ends?
What was your battery percentage when this measurement was taken?
What were you doing on the phone at the time of the measurement?
I assume from your post that question one is a yes. I ask question two because as your battery gets close to full (and in the case of most lithium battery charging) the amperage will lower to finish topping it off. Question three is important because I believe the Ampere app shows the net total amperage flow. Meaning that (a mA in) - (b mA being used) = (c mA total flow). So if you have brightness to max, music playing, etc. then the total mA flow will be lower.

Yeah am using the same charger usb c to usb
And i checked it on all percentages it ws same it never exceeded 1500 and sometimes it showed me 600 also
I was not doing anything at that time
Just charging my phone what should i do now?
Hmm... I've gotten weird readings from Ampere sometimes. Give the Current Monitor app a try perhaps.
same issue and haven't found any solutions so far

Could be the charger being defective, hard to say. Or the USB C port. Check if there is lint build up in the port.

It's ****ing weird. Never had these sort of issues using the QuickCharge 2.0/3.0 and micro-B connectors.
I cleaned out the port with isopropyl alcohol and compressed air. I've got some 3rd party chargers that register as "charging rapidly" but have yet to see current even close to 3A. Using the same cables, the OEM charger is still stuck on just "charging".
I can't seem to really push past 1.3A regardless of battery state, charger used, or cable.
By comparison, this is what it looks like with 3A charging. The bulk charge rate is near 80% per hour.

Looks like the Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0 Chip is on-board

iFixit did a teardown of the Pixel Phone to find there is a Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0 Chip on-board
Has anyone gotten to run a charging test on the phone with a QC3.0 charger?

If I don't remember wrong, Nexus 6P had the QC 2.0 chip. But nobody managed to activate it.

more bad news... uhg. I really love and am not sure I can live without my QC. on my g4 it charges up to 80% at 2.5-3% per minute. So dead to 80% in about 30 mins. This 1% per minute 'rapid' charging is going to piss me off.

It's not 1% per minute. It's about 50% in 30 minutes, and slows down after that. Your G4 does not charge to 80% in 30 minutes. If it did, the battery would be in pretty bad shape. You can't charge batteries at full current when they are near full capacity because it will damage them.

don't tell me what it does and doesn't do. It charges to 80% in about 30 mins, that's a fact whether you accept it or not.

I'm calling BS. I still have my G4, and several QC 2.0 chargers. No way is it going to charge to 80% in 40 minutes. It's just not physically possible.

He said 30minutes. Now we all know how screwy he can be, but if he believes that you can charge an LG G4 3000maH battery with any charger short of a lightning bolt, then let him dream.
Devils advocate, ****ty calibration may show you that rate of charge with a severely diminished runtime capacity in an old battery, damaged battery or **** software. All things an LG G4 is capable of.

Yeah, that was a typo on my part. I was laughing too hard to notice it. :laugh:
I would think most people with a G4 have more than one battery.

The supplied charger is 2A but you can buy a 5A microusb charger and use it to decrease the charging time. Kirin 710 does support fast charging so it shouldn't be a problem.
battery capacity in the thread description is wrong? someone can change it?

can i just use the charger from my old S7 ? or could you specify a charger ? thanks man
I wonder how much it would take if I use a 6A charger for example and better, if there are such ones?
Only thing I think could have been better is fast charging support.
stock 5V/2A charger takes some time. Also used the 5V/4.5A supercharger but not much difference.

i have 5V/2A charger and it is managed to charge up my honor 8x from 12 percent to 50 percent in just 45 minutes, while taking a total of about 2 hours to charge up the device to 100 percent. If you’re familiar with how fast fast charging actually is, then you’d already know that the Honor 8X doesn’t charge quickly.
USB 2 is slow. USB type C could have make this wonderful phone. bit slow charging but no worries as once this is charged, you have full day to use
No fast charging option on the Honor 8X, which isn't that big of a deal. It just feels so strange charging a phone with a micro usb port.

Charged my phone from 30% to 100% within 40 minutes. Although I'm using a different adapter here in Europe than the one provided in the AliExpress bundle.
it charges quite fast, 50 to 100 take around 30-40 min, 0 to 90 only around 50 to 60 min, then it will slow down from 91 to 100 around 15 min.
the downside is you need vooc fast charger to charge fast, other fast charger is only charge normally
VOOC 3.0 really mean something. My last device redmi note 5 pro 4000mAh with qc 2 need more than 1 hour to recharge from 20-80%.
realme 5 pro with little bigger 4035mAh battery charge in only 30 minutes. Now that's innovation. Plus i still could using it for social media or streaming videos while charge it. No noticeable heat compared to my whyred with qc 2 while charging.
Love this VOOC technology.
The build quality also very nice, power adaptor and usb c cable was solid. Worth every penny..
vooc 3 is good. full charge in 1.25 hours
I've searched about snapdragon 712, and I saw it supports quick charge 4+ which is can charge up to 27w. Does this mean realme 5 pro supports 27watts charging because it's powered by snapdragon 712?
My 5 Pro do not quick charge OOB?!
I have try with my own QCC charger but charge it slowly and give it a try with a Realme phone box charger.
All was the same.
From 28% to 98% charge it about 2.5H !!!???
Any advice?
VOOC 3.0 is doing its job!
I am using this device for a while now. Charging with the inbox 20W(5V, 4A) adaptor and cable.
Plugged-in at 13%
43% in 31mins
67% in 46mins (Sufficient for a day for a moderate user like me)
77% in 79mins
100% in 96mins
PS: Couldn't post SS due to spam policies of XDA. I was not using the device while charging. Wifi and only a single sim were activated while charging the device.
Got an update a couple days back to realme ui and it seems that the charging speed is a bit better than previous color os, ve tried two attempts and it was a solid result, just an hour I got around 95 percent battery from 1 percent plug in, both attempts fills my realme 5 pro to 100 percent just under 1hour 10minutes.
Nb: attachment shows my latest charging result.

Dear realme users,
I have got some difficulties to find a VOOC charger for my realme 5 pro.
Knowing "compatible chargers" issues, but not so compatible (slower or bad DATA cable), I wish know if you have some refernces to share.
I frind only compatible OnePlus chargers but it seems to be some differences between DashCharge and VoocCharge.
Official Vooc charger has following specifications :
Ref : AK779GB LiteOn, 100-240V et 5V-4A
Unfortunately, neither realme shop, neither Oppo shop sell this reference....
Thanks lot for your help.
