According to Qualcomm:
https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/quick-charge:
In laboratory tests using a 3300mAh battery1, a Quick Charge 2.0 enabled device went from 0% to 60% charge in 30 minutes, while a device without Quick Charge 2.0 using a conventional (5 volt, 1 amp) charger achieved just a 12% gain in the same 30 minutes. A device with Quick Charge 1.0 managed a 30% charge in that time period.
Scrolling down on that page it shows the most popular Quick Charge 2.0 devices, the LG G4 is among them.
So the G4 3000mAh battery should be above 60% in 30 minutes if it uses Quick Charge 2.0.
I got this charger:

Seems legit, but my charge times seem to be stuck at 1.0. That is it went from 19% to 55% in 30 minutes, which means it charged 36% in 30 minutes.
What kind of time have you clocked with your Quick Charger?
Also, my G4 got quite hot when charging.

I have just bought the UCH10 from Sony to try out on the fast charging, its seems charging at the same rate as a regular 2.1A Charger.. Anyone facing this issue?

I don't know about the UCH10, but I know with my Powergen charger I see it going into HV (fast charge) mode. (The charger I have has an indicator for when it's in 9v mode).
However, I have noticed this device's thermal throttling is pretty aggressive. You need to let the thing idle if you expect it to charge at any reasonable rate thanks to the Snapdragon 810 being a power hog.
Confimed the UCh10 charger fast charge working
Only got 13% from 1% for 15mins
What happened!!
Mine came with the UCH10 charger and am using my short Sony usb cable that came with my headset (EC300). I went from 4% to 100% in 1 hour and 35 mins. At the end of the day with my bluetooth headset and smart watch conneted all day (12 hours) moderate use emails,mms,calls. I have about 42% remaining. It only seams to be getting better with each charge. Today it went from 5% to 100% in 1 hour and 22 mins.
Perheps Sony's fast charging is to speed up overall charging at a faster rate. As i was from Note 5, its charging takes only 10 mins to jump from 5% to 38%!!
Perheps they are both using different fast charging tech?

Both are using the same under different names. Samsung named it "Adaptive fast charging" and the rest use qualcomm's name "Quick charge".
For example mine is in the box with standard 1.5 normal charger, but I am using the charger from my dead note 4 (yes it is a quick charger one) which is charging z5p at the same speed like my note 4. Also I am monittoring the charge rate, and I can confirm that samis Adaptive charger charging at max using qualcomm's quick charge standard our z5p devices.
Edit:
If note 5 charging so fast it must be another tech from Samsung (or wrong battery stats - believe me I experienced these few times on my note 4 during flashing AOSP roms).
Cheers
Edit 2:
I can remember that note 4 when stock (tw) is charging much more aggressively during initial charge (upto around 50%, and then it just slow down), while AOSP is fast charging constantly (lower rate compared to samis stock tw rom) but use quck charge upto 90-95%.. It is a setting at the end. Yoi can force set this with custom kernel.
To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Sony Xperia XZ Premium can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

Before saying such things, do you even have any idea why this happens? Don't post something like this like is a con when you don't know why this happens. Also you can disable it easily if you don't like it.

Yes i know "Battery Care" function. I Turned off.
I tried a lot cable and charger but i give always 3 hours 30 minutes.
Because this phone has got QNOVO Adapdive Charge technology for battery life.
But, that's why:
%1 percent to %51 charged with 2380mA
%51 percent to %60 charged with 1990mA
%60 percent to %70 charged with 1510mA
%70 percent to %75 charged with 1220mA
%75 percent to %80 charged with 1020mA
%80 percent to %83 charged with 920mA
%83 percent to %85 charged with 720mA
%85 percent to %87 charged with 620mA
%87 percent to %100 charged with 530mA
Totally full charge 3 hours 30 minutes.

If you charge it to 100% (and discharge it to 0%) every day then you will not extend your battery life for sure... If the charging time is the most important to you, get OP5 or S8 and stop moaning. And 3 hours and 30 minutes? LOL...

3:30? I got it with UCH12 and it was charged from 1% to 100% in 2:38. I only tested it once as I don't let it go under 30% and I charge it max 87-90%

Battery Care open 3.30
Closed 2.40
To be honest I'd rather wait longer for the phone to charge than damaged the battery over time. I rarely go below 50% and charge above 80%. This way the wear to the battery is minimal

I had the same results when i made a full charge with the uch 12 charger. Most people say that the 40% to 80% rule is the best for the longlivety of the battery, but i perform the 30% to 90% rule as well because it lasts me almost 2 days with a normal use.
This phone lasts me forever, so I don't care that it doesn't charge 80% in 15 minutes. I just wish it had the time to full charge listed like my old SGS6 or that it would at least have a notification somewhere that you were in fact rapidly charging (again, like Sammy phones).
Less than 3 hours to charge from 5% to 100% as you can see in the attached image
I use a aukey power charger with quick charge 3.0 and an Anker USB 3 cable

with battery care on, I also got approx. 2:45 with UC12 and also charged from 1%, I often charge from 15% and got approx. 2:35 fully charged.
Hahahaha... I bought a 3A "fast charging kit" yesterday, because I was by friends and forgot my charger. Manufacturer is "hama". It looks really nice and like it's good quality. But... Hell... 2% in 19 minutes? WTF?! Hahaha... I think this is ultra fast charging gone wrong.
You all are stupid. Turn off battery care and you will charge it for 1:15 to 1:30 h with Sony UCH12W.

Battery care is disabled since I bought my XZP ? I think it's a compatibility problem with my hama charger. The Sony charger does it's job really fast ?
I think that Sony UCH12W is the best charger for Sony XPERIA XZ Premium
My XZ premium went from 4% to 100% in 1hr30 using the standard UCH12W and UCB20 cable.
Xperia XZ Premium charging query?
Hi burakkcbyk
Are the figures you stated below specifically for the Xperia XZ Premium? I ask as I had an online chat with Sony today and they were next to useless. The advisor told me the phone actually draws 2.8a @ 5w, but this doesn't make sense when the mains charger supplied can only provide 2.7a @ 5w. Furthermore, the official Sony in-car charger can only push 2.4a @ 5w. So, with your figures below it seems to me as if the phone actually only draws 2.4a maximum anyway?
Kind regards
Dave

Yes bro. This values for XZP
I used a few Qualcomm Quick Charging phones before, quick charge 2.0/3.0 and they were all pretty quick to charge, like 30 mins 60%. Just before the Razer I had the Oneplus 3T which used the Dash charge technology and that was like superquick.
The razer supposedly has the latest QuickCharge 4+ technology.. but I am yet to see the phone charge "QUICK".
When connected with the original razer wall charger, It is maxing at about 1920Ma using 4.01 V. (checked using ampere app)
I also tried a different usb c cable, on a different quickcharge 3.0 wall charger and it is giving me exatly the same output at 1920Ma max.
This is not right, is anyone else experiencing similar charge speeds ?
Don't know the electrical figures but performance wise mine charges to 60% in the first 40-45mins.
But then sadly it takes a while to finish the full charge. Like another hour.
On the lockscreen it states 'rapidly charging' so it seems to be using the technology. Remember this has a 4000mah battery, what phone were you using before?
That being said I'm getting fantastic battery life so in my case this doesn't bother me.
Good batt life here too. About an hour and 50 minutes from 4% to 100%.
Not sure how right that is. I think it was prolly 30 to 40 minutes to 50% or so.
Funny thing was, I charged while the phone was off, the white icon on the black background showed 100% (no numbers but it was full) but when I started the phone the battery status was 95%.
Ok, I got the other phone replaced because it had couple issues. I put this new phone on charge last night when it was on 7%. On the ampere app it maxed out to like 3000 something Ma and there was a buzzing/whining noise coming from the charger/wall adapter. I left it on charge till like 40% or something and I was not comfortable with the sound from the charger so i removed it.
Put the phone on charge today, it was on 35%. The sound from the charger is still there but not as loud as yesterday. Checked on the ampere app, its pushing on average 1900Ma this time.
35% at 11:27
50% at 11:45
61% at 11:57
75% at 12:13
91% at 12:34
96% at 12:48
1. I still feel the phone is not charging fast enough although it is saying rapid charging. Like mentioned before, connecting the phone to a lower standard quick charge 3.0/2.0 power port is charging at the same numbers..
2. Having looking at these links below, the numbers dont add up to what they are advertising quickcharge 4+ with.
https://www.qualcomm.com/products/features/quick-charge
and https://www.qualcomm.com/news/onq/2...alcomm-quick-charge-4-your-next-mobile-device
3. I've never had any charger/ wall adapter that made such noise. Is this a defective unit, or is such noise on these expected if it is like charging at a faster rate? the previous one was queit.. but then again the previous one did not push over 1900Ma, this one got to over 3000Ma.
Don't know what to tell ya, but I've heard zero noise from the chargers, I've got 2 units. Purposely kept my original instead of using the rma'd charger just in case. I'm not sure what their total sales are vs defective units, would be nice to get some communications from razer though.
I'm glad they got an update out after 5 days, shows they're working on it, but the update broke the sound and there's questions people have, all razer seems to do is say 'contact customer service'. Which isn't very cool when you're sitting there wondering wth is happening with the direction of it all.
Still love the phone though. Best specs of anything out there, sounds like just as many bugs as the pixel 2 or the iphone x too. heh
And it's a bonus to razer since this is their first and those companies have been doing it awhile.

I was on live chat yesterday, they said they will go through with the warranty team and try send me a new charger. They will probably just send out the same thing. The dash charge cable my oneplus 3t had was proper thick and that was charging at around 3000-4000mA on average till like 60%, then it would usually slow it down but that was a proper quick charge.
I connect this cable, it pushes to 3000mA for like 5 seconds and then goes back down to 1900mA. I think its either that the equipment they are using is just crap and not ready for quick charge or that they have large number of defective charging units.
Sad to be bumping this but I also have huge amount of noise coming from the charger, I have to say that 60% on standard phones is half or less of what 60% on the razer is, but yeah there is no difference for me from QuickCharge 3 and 4+, it's quite weird.
I'm going to go through and get a new charger, also the cable's lining is also ruined somehow, detached from one of the USB-C ends and as far as I can see seems to be protruding some alloy, most likely just some protection but it's really just what usually happens, also with mices from Razer.
Goodluck to everyone.
I'm using both the included one and my old nexus 6p one and both charge rapidly and pretty freaking fast too
I've come to a conclusion and still awaiting feedback from Razer aswell to confirm this, that either my phone is defective or Razer are claiming to have this phone equipped with QC 4+ but it really is not.
Qualcomm say:
When Quick Charge 4 was announced, it promised to bring even faster charging than its predecessor, allowing a device to go from empty to 50 percent in just 15 minutes.
The current Quick Charge 4 technology, announced in November of last year, promises five hours of charge in five minutes, a 20 percent improvement in charging speed and 30 percent improvement in efficiency than the previous Quick Charge system.
The company announced even more improved specs today: the Quick Charge 4+ system, which the company promises is up to three degrees cooler, up to 15 percent faster and 30 percent more efficient than Quick Charge 4.
So can anyone confirm that you are getting these numbers when charging your phone? No way near what Im getting. I've tested and compared the charge speed using Ampere App and could not see a single difference between QC 3.0 and 4+ on this phone. I've used the original wall adapter + usb c cable combinations as well as using a standard QC 3.0 wall adapter and a usb 3.1/3.0 cable.
The phone starts charging at around 3800mA upto 25% then reduces drastically to 1800mA and charges to full charge. Issue lies here because at 1800mA the phone is NOT quick charging. It charges quick upto 25%, very quick actually but after 25% it charges very slow. I know the fact that due to heat the phone will not charge at 3800mA throughout so would need to drop but this drop should not be at 25%. My oneplus 3T used to charge at around 3000-4000mA 60-70% then used to drop towards 1500mA-2500mA mark and would complete the charge at this rate. It was very quick, 0-70% was like in 30 minutes.
This is what I've got yesterday.

Note: I've had no apps running or anything in the background. Also note at 14:57 it said 42 minutes for full charge, 30 minutes later it was still saying 42 minutes for full charge
I think I'm going through the same thing. I'll charge and test it.
My experiences are similar to others. I am not using the box charger. I am using 2 types: Motorola TurboPower 30 USB-C, and the AUKEY 70W Charging station (Using the QC 3.0 port). I have no idea if its doing QC4+.. It just says "charging rapidly". I am using an app called AccuBattery pro. It is at 85%. See the attached picture for the metrics charging on the Motorola charger. The one thing I miss, which my Nexus 6 did without an app, it would tell me how much time until full.

I have the same exact issue
Can you guys all test your charge using the Ampere app and jot down the numbers like I have done. Make sure you put it on charge when the battery is below 25%. If everyone is getting the same numbers then the phone does not come with QC 4.0+ and/or it cannot handle heat properly hence it is only charging quick upto 25%. Or else, some of us have bad units.

I'm experiencing the same behavior you are using the QC4+ Charger and cable that came with it.
I did get in touch with Razer and at first they were not willing to accept that there is a problem and they were insisting that the behaviour was normal. After forcing them to "explain" why it was normal, they could not really say anything so they gave up on it and now they are saying I could send the device in for them to check it. I also got the half screen freezing issue which I believe is a hardware problem (somewhere on this forum and Razer forum confirmed) so I have just put a RMA request and will be testing out the replacement device when I get it. If the replacement phone is no different and all you guys are getting the same numbers then like I said, I dont think Quick Charge 4+ is implemented to their devices and its just "false advertising". I cant think of anything else.
Had the same issue charging stops at 20%
but the problem is not constantly appearing
Well so far we have yet to see someone come and say Quick Charge on their phone works after 25%.
Bit of a misunderstanding
So first of all Qualcomm states up to 50% battery in 15 minutes, but that will only hold true if used on the smallest of smartphone batteries aka round or just bellow 2000mah.
So technically 1000mah in the first 15 mins which will be about %25 of the razer's 4000mah battery.
Razer is selling the chargers themselves on Amazon on the razer store and in the description they quote up to %50 battery in 40 minutes which in real life means 50 percent in ideal lab situations.
So your phone and charger are working correctly and at the maximum nowadays technology allows.
Just always remember with anything new that comes out with technology like when they touted the up to 4g speeds theoretical limit this and that etc hardly anyone if ever anyone will ever have the pleasure of experiencing the up to... that has been touted.
I hoped this helped and maybe clarified things for some people.

So your phone and charger are working correctly and at the maximum nowadays technology allows.
Just always remember with anything new that comes out with technology like when they touted the up to 4g speeds theoretical limit this and that etc hardly anyone if ever anyone will ever have the pleasure of experiencing the up to... that has been touted.
I hoped this helped and maybe clarified things for some people.

There is nothing to misunderstand here. The last phone I used had a 3400mAh battery and charged to 60% in 30 minutes. Razer has the extra 600mAh yes, maybe the charge technologies are not exactly the same yes agree on that too, but this does not mean that the 4000mAh Razer could only handle Quick Charge upto 25%. Whats the point of having the technology if the remaining 75% is going to be slow. Doesnt make any sense, Quick Charge 3.0 devices dont work like this so why should it be this way on this phone.
Took 108 minutes for full charge from when the phone was on 15%. Said 42 minutes for full charge. 30 minutes later it was still saying 42 minutes for full charge.
Im just not convinced that Quick Charge 4+ is working as it should on this phone. Either software or hardware related dont know but something is wrong. On this forum or the Razer forum cant exactly remember but some guys were saying how the provided usb c cable was not even a proper usb c cable and it was too thin. Just thinking maybe that might also be a reason or maybe not i dont know.
For a 3400 mah battery to charge to 60% in 30mins you would need more than 7amp charger .
I don't even know one if they exist.
Compared to my S8 it does not charge fast, is there a setting I need to enable for fast charge?

You have to turn off battery care or else the last 20% charges very slowly.
According to my research, with battery care it charges fast(8V 1,5A) until 50% of the battery, then it goes 5V 1A.
Are you using a Quick Charge enabled charger or the standard one delivered with the phone?
I did some tests today at work, charged from 0% to 90% with battery care ON, and bluetooth ON.
0:00 - 0% - 8,6V 1,3A
0:04 - 5% - 8V 1,3A
0:08 - 10% - 8V 1,3A
0:18 - 27% - 7,7V 1,3A
0:26 - 33% - 7,7V 1,3A
1:00 - 73% - 5,3V 1,3A
1:19 - 85% - 5,8V 0,6A
1:30 - 90% - 5,5V 0,6A
I don't have this phone but try installing Ampere from the Play Store. If you see it charging anywhere in the 2000+ mA range it's doing Quickcharge. Keep in mind it does so up until 80% I believe. At least that's what my Axon7 does but I believe that's how Qualcomm Quickcharge 3 is designed- to rapidly charge until the last bit to maintain battery health. Notice the numbers in the person's measurements above how it ramps down after 80%.
Also, if you purchase any 3rd party chargers make sure to only buy models Qualcomm says are certified for Quickcharge. There's a PDF on their site that lists all of the certified chargers.
My Axon7 will charge at around 2300-2400ish mA until 80% and then drop to around 500mA for the remainder. I also might have to reseat the cable if it's not kicking in.
But that last 20% is by no means quick. That's why these fast charging technologies advertise them with slogans like "15 minutes for 2 hours charge" or whatever. The slogan only applies to the quick charging timeframe - you will get a couple of hours if, say, you began charging at 25% . If you want to get a full 100% it'll still take an hour or more to trickle charge the last 20% or whatever.
Personally, I bought a certified Quickcharge 3 charger for my car and 1 for the house, the OEM charger I use at work, and at night I use an old charger that isn't Quickcharge. It's really mainly handy for the car when you need to get that oomph when you're out and about.
