What is your HONEST Charging speed? (10%-100%) - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Just vote in the poll please.
ONLY VOTE FOR DATA USING THE SUPPLIED CHARGER AND CABLE .
Your charging data must be for phone in ON state with WIFI on.
Which is I assume most normal people would charge their devices.

Yes, Wifi On ( Set to Always ON) . But not connected. Was connected to 4g while charging. And thus the obvious , the device also was ON

How long does it take for a full charge? [Culprit: Bad USB cable]

Well I need to know from you guys, it's not that I don't know, but need to reconfirm. I think mine is taking much lower now than it was. A full charge, say from 5% to 100%, with Stock charger?
Thanks in adv.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
roughly 1 percent for 1 minute. should be charged in a couple of hours

Charging from 0 to 90% happens in no more that 2 hours I would say. from 90% to 100% the charging rate gets slowed a lot. So basically shouldn't take more than 2:30 hours from 0 to 100%.
Thanks guys. Now I remember it was 2 hours 45 mins for me too at first.
Today it took 4 hrs 30 mins. Reason? I'll say tomorrow, after confirming.

I rarely charge it to 100%, usually to 70 or 80%. much better for the battery in the long term
Any research or refrence for this longevity ? I heard its always better to charge 100% ?

you are welcome. the general rule is to try to 1) avoid charging to 100%, really diminishing return the higher it goes; and 2) avoid deep discharge cycle. I usually use 40% of the capacity at work everyday, so charge to ~70% in the morning, use down to ~30% and then charge again. charging time in this range is rather linear, about 1 percent a minute

Yeah, it happened to mine too few days back. My Note2 went crazy, taking around 7-8 hrs to fully charge from 15%. So, i tried searching about the problem on google but to no avail. Did a factory reset with cache wipe and problem solved :good:. Now it takes about 2.5 hrs to fully charge from say 10% (using the samsung wall charger with phone switched on). I can only say that the slow charging was caused due to some software but don't know exactly which one? You may as well try the hard reset if anything else doesn't work out .
P.S : Btw i'm on stock fw with no root or mod! Only did some OTA updates couple of weeks ago.
Guys, we have a changeable battery and is already writed Inside to android that it won't charge to 100%, it just shows at 100% but really it is at 95%-98% that feature came with 2.2.1 update 2yrs ago.
And we can change the battery after 2yrs for 20-30$, unlike Nokia lumia users or HTC one x or iPhone users.

Yeah, thanks. But if you've Watchdog installed then you can see which app is going over threshold and keep running on background. And yes, this time, again, the culprit was PowerAMP! Uninstalled it and voila. The same app created problem for me when I had my S2, charging was pathetically slow, even I had to go to SC and they said battery is gone. But I didn't believe and asked a techy friend and he said it might be some app, and damn right he was.
Anyway, if anyone having the same issue like mine, that is, charging duration has increased with Stock charger, then install Watchdog (the lite version will do) and see who is the culprit.
I have no idea how a top app like PowerAMP could cause this! Jeez!

I have noticed same on My honor8.. but only If i leave FB or Snapchat running backround. Also old FB update (cant remember when) has issue when i "cleaned" from taskmanager FB was still running and used lots of battery. So im quessing that your problem can be caused by app or two..
I hope Huawei will make their own quick charge implementation like VOOC from Oppo.

Quick charge not working anymore.

I've been having this phone for a few months now and at the beginning the quick charge was working just fine but then, suddenly, I'm stopped working. On the screen it said only "In charge". In the meantime I lost the original charger so I bought a new one that supports quick charge but there haven't been any results. Is there an option or something to activate it again? Do you have any idea what might be the problem?

Check the specifications of the new charger. It should be able to support 5V/2A and 9V/2A. Also check your cable if it supports that.

I don't remember it. The fact is that when I tried to use my powerbank that supports quick charge, even if it didn't show up on the lock screen it was indeed charging really fast. Much faster then with the normal charger
