45W vs 25W vs 15W Samsung Charging Speed Test

[@rhiosutoyo]

Thanks for the graph. It sums up the results nicely.

[@Al1235]

The normal s22 doesnt support 45 watts, only the plus and the ultra

[@GamingMaceo]

Great to know

[@powerslot9490]

But can the base s22 charge with it, buy capped at 25watt?

[@Al1235]

@powerslot9490 yeah it'll still work it'll just only charge at 25 watts

[@SmarterBetAuthor]

Great video. It’s concise and tells the story completely. Based on your tests, my conclusion is the same as yours. I plan to stay with 15 watts charging for now until something changes in battery tech. I almost never run my phone to zero. Usually I charge 40% to 90%, and your test shows that times between those two markers are essentially identical for all three chargers. Kudos and thanks!

[@filipjtech]

Agreed. I like the super fast charge for first 30 minutes on 25W and 45W. It's a big plus. But it's not worth switching when I charge my phone overnight with 15W

[@fibrahimi]

​@@filipjtech I have set a Bixby routine where every night at 11pm it deactivates Fast Charging in the settings and it activated it back during the day. This way I charge slowly overnight and if needed during the day I can use that speedup at work.

[@dcpowered]

It is actually a fail for the 45W test since he did not use a 5A cable!

[@thomasrandell]

You are correct, from 40% the 15W and 25W are basically the same. Not sure many people understand that.

[@davidjensen7919]

I am nominating you for the Nobel Prize. This is thorough

[@navaspj1397]

Bro you have to use 5 amp cable to get full speed from 45w. Don't use the cable which comes with the phone. You have to buy the cable seperately with 45w charger

[@carolyn9444]

Thanks, you are correct. I did some research, 5 Amp cord gives the speed we are missing here with the 45 watt charger.

[@ihateflatbunz]

How much amo cable should I use for 25w

[@MarkMD.]

Bought a 45w to my note20 ultra. Waste of money. There is no improvement

[@Cameronnp]

Maybe not for note10, which is old versio. 45w charger is meaningful s22 and s23 ultra, it support fast charging

[@filipjtech]

45W charger is unnecessary at this point. A 5 minute charge difference doesn't justify the $50 price

[@Cameronnp]

@Filip Tech I understand that, but 45w charger is very fast charging from 0% to 60% battery compared to 25w charger. For busy business me, this is meaningful, so I use 45w. price gap is 17 USD in Korea (35- 18= 17), plus pride of having 45w in advance. 😆

[@filipjtech]

Lol in your case it's worth it. If it makes you happy and prideful then why not

[@inguspodnieks5040]

​@@Cameronnpits so anoying that s21 ultra doesnt have it but s20 ultra has it s10 dont have it note 10 does like wtf😂

[@ViperSniper2042]

This test is a fail IMO. He is not using a 5A cable on the 45W charger. Therefore, does not show the (Super fast charging 2.0). Or, perhaps, either on the More battery settings, was not enable the (Fast charging). Folks, unfortunately, the cable that comes with the S23 Ultra is only 3A.

[@dcpowered]

That's a good point! The 45W should be charging a lot faster than in the video! You need a phone that supports it as well as a 5A cable!

[@Jess-Gonzales]

Totaly agree if you dont invest on the cable your also getting less

[@lanceparrish8352]

On top of that, the 45 watt charger is charging a phone with a screen on display

[@cherylwilliams9360]

Thank you!! This was so VERY helpful!

[@thepotatoofheaven]

the difference in time looks pretty minimal to me. Thanks for making this video, it helped me understand better

[@filipjtech]

No problem!

[@FlyingFamily]

When i was at home in weekends and when comeback from office. I have lots of time to charge my phone. I personally disable the fast charging under the settings and charge the phone at normal speed. And set the limit of 85% charging. From 85 to 100 will not change anything in my life so its better i will keep my device healthy

[@oldschoolbluesplayer5319]

why didnt you put the Display Time Out at 10 Mins so you didnt have to keep hitting the side button?

[@michaelelkin9542]

Thank you. This is a great video. I myself find that the Super Fast chargers are unreliable and sometimes the final 20% can take much longer than expected and end up being slower than the 15W. I think you graph also shows that they slow down significantly after 80%, while the 15W does not slow as much. I have Super Fast charged to 80 and then switched for the rest of the charge for best overall results.

[@MnyFrNthng]

They slow down after 80 percent to extend the battery life by not heating the battery too much. Pixel does the same. In fact, you should try not to charge your phone above 80% if you want to use it for many years.

[@zackmorris25]

What up though! lol...I'm with you...I still have my 15W charger and to save 10 minutes is not worth the price for either the 25W or the 45W...Overall, I'll stick with my 15W charger... :) Great review!!

[@filipjtech]

Agreed it does charge slower when using it. But most people charge their phones over night. 15 minute charge is not a big enough difference for most people to switch

[@mojo3320]

Same bro! I'm still using my s9 + 15w charger with my s22 ultra and it still charges fast lmao. Don't waste your money on 25w + chargers, guys

[@Pique_Blinders69]

Bro didn’t use a 5A cable on 45W charger, what is the point of this test then?

[@Gediminasization]

Are slow charging is better for battery and stay longer?

[@hunterridley73]

I have a 45 watt charger for my s22 ultra it gets you like a 72% and 30 minutes when I use it The 25 watt gave me likes 64 in 30 minutes when I tested the two charges

[@TheRealBatabii]

It's weird how they call it fast charger when it's only 15 W. I think that's the same one I still have

[@Sidewinder5]

It not weird. It is a fast charger for smaller battery.

[@sussy.gaming6969]

Can i use samsung's latest 15 watt charger for S22?like is it safe for battery?i dont want to damage my brand new expensive phone so pls help😢

[@SaNaNe7266]

You can easily use Samsung's newly released 15w type c charger, it will not cause any problems. If you want it to charge faster, you can also use Samsung's 25w charger

[@TechMikkel]

Everytime you start the screen it will go down to around 18 watt. I saw that in a video last year where a guy was testing the 45 watt charger from Samsung on the s22u with a watt measurement equipment. This could explain why this test with always on display with percentage numbers has a faster time (58 minutes): kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmPVl6WdrceEg80

[@filipjtech]

Using the phone or having always on display will DEFINTELY slow down your charging speed! If I didn't turn on the screen every 5 minutes, the phone would've been charged a couple minutes sooner than current times.

[@sakib9784]

A proper comparison video! Thanks 👏

[@filipjtech]

Glad you liked it!

[@maybach1191]

You tested 3 chargers on the S22 device and it only accepts fast charging up to 25w, which is incorrect. Try it with a device that accepts fast charging 45w like Note 10+, S22 Ultra, S23 Ultra, S24 Ultra,...

[@Nexiii11]

Thanks for the video! Was gonna buy a 25W charger but it's only 11 minutes off my 15W. It's not worth the hassle of "upgrading" if I'm just saving 11 minutes.

[@OhioBoii330]

Just curious.. I noticed that neither the 25w or 45w charger didn't say "fast charging" where it shows the charging percentage on black lock screen. Did you make sure that the "fast charging" option on the phone was enabled in the settings? I know when i got one of my new phones several years ago, I forget what phone it was, and first started using a fast charger, i didn't really notice that it wasn't charging very fast until several months later when i was checking the battery usage in the settings that the "fast charging" option was disabled. Once i enabled it, i immediately noticed a massive difference in charging speeds. Most of the phones ive had since then, if not all of them, ive had to go into the battery settings and manually enable the "fast charging" option. I also had to manually enable the "fast wireless charging" option as both of them were disabled and just charging like it would with a "non-fast" charger.

[@TejCharantej]

[@filipjtech]

The results will be similar. I expect the 23 to charge a few minutes faster

[@filipjtech]

I haven't done any testing to confirm. But a 5 minute increase in speed sounds about right for the new phones, which is why I said a "few minutes faster".

[@matthouston8411]

[@carly200]

I am charging the s23+ mostly with 45w up to 80% But also use a 30w (very compact) charger from anker. But think the 25w is perfect as well. Not really slower (a few minutes at most, but the 45w heats up alost and then also slows since it only charges with 15-20w in that time) I wonder if there are any thest with 15w VS fast charging (25/30/40) regarding cycles. For longevity temperature and staying between 25 and 80 soc is critical, but I wonder if there is a lot to gain between 15 to say 25w After 1,5 years the calculated capacity is 96% mostly in the quick charge up to 80 soc with about 566 cycles in 541 days

[@sahilbarak9308]

45 watt charger also need a new 5w cable..which provided by the brand not 5w cable so you have to purchase 5w cable seperately to perform 45w charger peak performance and yes it will charge the phone to 100% in 50 minutes lumsum... soo there will be a difference if you wanna charge 45w full but samsung does all this complicated to secure battery life fast charging comes with a cost of battery replacement early it decrease battery health overall in long terms...lots of heat..faster charging faster decrease low backup...more battery cycles... not good for battery..thats why samsung i guess do this. :)

Of course it won't damage the battery technically it's the opposite, charging slower always decreases battery temp and that's always better and secondly it doesn't have to be Samsung branded one it just needs to be something with a UL, ETL, csa, or ctuvus certification. Just one is enough as they kinda overlap.
