I use that charger too. It's faster than the OEM supplied one. I have the Aukey - car/cigarette lighter socket model too and it's fast charge. Aukey makes good stuff !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rzlybb:
It may be a little slow, battery is way bigger and not to mention it drains less battery with de bloating, plus new technology, so I got around 16 hours of medium to heavy usage, that's really good to me :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rigelthehottie:
It did take a shorter amount of time for me to charge the S7 edge vs the note 4 , i think a 20~30 minute difference

I haven't had an iPhone since 3G but i think it doesn't charge as fast as the S7E either nor does it last as long

Compared to my other phones (LG P920, the old 3D cam phone), (Alcatel One touch, which was a cheap phone), and the ones before it (pre-android Samsung and Nokia phones), it charges faster and has a better battery life (except, i guess, compared with my pre-mobile data era nokia phones, but that's the good 'ol nokia for you)

Anyone using Ampere to see what amps they are getting with the stock charger?

I dont think Ive went over 1100maH since Ive got it.

Having had a Find7a with VOOC Charging (0 to 70 in 30minutes), I was really bothered with how slow the charging was on the S7Edge. I'm just starting to adapt my charging routine (I used to charge it before work in the morning, the S7 I have to charge at night)

so enabling quick charger 3 can happen by software update ? and as i read on android central ....

don't expect to plug your new Galaxy S7 or S7 edge into a new Quick Charge 3.0-compliant charger and get the absolute fastest charging speeds — you'll be juicing up at the Quick Charge 2.0 rate.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
Phone usually hot while fast charging because your apps remain open or running in background that's y!

Try close all apps and do fast charge!

Tried a few chargers, my S7 Edge peaks at 1.0A charge speed which is weird I wouldn't call that fast charging, even with fast cable charging enabled in settings :/
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
Data cable fault!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] ryanraven:
On 3 brand new cables ? 2xAukey 1xSamsung(in the box)

I doubt it :(

If wires are new than buy charger aukey fast charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] ryanraven:
I'm currently using an Aukey Fast Charger 2.4A (MAX)

Sill getting poor charging speeds, it's like the phone is maxing out its CPU most of the time :/
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
Now I understand but I think its time to hard reset your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] ryanraven:
Think it might be because of the latest update :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
The only way to do hard reset. Some bloatware not letting CPU temrature down.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] aj.bglr:
my note 2 from 2012 had similar charging speeds imo(maybe a little slower but did similar work). The charge rate on s7 while using the phone is terrible though :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Saridas:
I get from about 8% to about 40-50% in 30 minutes which is good for me. But then from 50% to 100 it takes a bit longer. But its okay i guess
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] friendonet:
0 to 100 in 102 min with phone off

the phone was fully discharged and switched off. plugged in with the included fast charger. showed 0% to start with. left it to charge without turning it on. for whatever reason noted the time i plugged in. exact 102 minutes and the led turned green showing 100%. was getting quite hot for the initial 80-85% charge but started cooling down after. looks all good with the battery and charge time for the 1.5 days+ average usage i get

Edit: forgot to mention its a 935fd with Superman v2.0 rom. cheers!!

Not charging with original charger

My S7 edge is not charging with the original charger. I bought a second new one and it is just the same! Checked everything from settings to cables. Even with the original wireless charger there is no charging at all. All "normal" charger are working with the device charging it slowly even with the wireless charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eugenic:
i charge from 5% to 100% in a bit more then an hour. (about 1h 23min from 1% -> 100%)

On heavy Usage i have 15% at end of day.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] nosympathy:
my charge rate sucks in general, but this last update has made my phone 100% worthless. Takes forever to charge and on top of that it discharges like there is no tomorrow. I am already at 60%, phones been off the charger for 2 hours. used it all of 25 mins, nothing being caught eating battery (no rogue apps)

I saw an old post in here about the iphone 6 plus charging slow.

I can confirm my iphone 6 plus and my iphone 6s plus I had prior to this phone charged far faster and could be abused far worse.

The note 7 for the few weeks I had one, charged way faster and was far better than this phone. I am desperately hoping it's the OS difference, cause this phone is absolutely terrible. Been waiting for the new OS update to reset my phone. I may have to do it sooner than expected.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Michele Lindemann:
Charging speed is so good in my opinion, i charge (with speed charge) from 1 to 100 in about 1,30 hour. Very happy with this
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Theking haha:
Do any of you guys have a problem like when i din touch my phone and leave it to charge it would charge at a normal rate for the last 10% at about 2-3 minutes per %. But if u touch it when it reach 90%,i mean if u use it at that time and afterthat u leave it there again,its charge rate change to about 1% in 1 minute which is abnormal for the last 10%,anyone has this problem and how could i solve it?:)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
It's normal !!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Theking haha:
No its not normal,even if i wake the screen to use it while it is charging the last 10%,it should have continue to charge by about 1% every 2-3 minutes,not change to 1% every minute
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sheenswizner:
Wipe catch memory in recovery!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Theking haha:
Tried but its still the same.what should i do?it have good battery life though if i allowed it to charge fully.btw is 4g standby really drains battery?cuz if i leave it on 4g it will drain faster.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Hipped_Orange22:
Strange problem on my S7e since last 4 days....When i plug the fast charger...It says fast charging and shows time remaining for full charge then after sometime(sometimes at 60%.Sometimes at 83%,its random) that time remaining goes away and it just says "Fast charging" and it charges slowly. i already changed usb cables still no luck

When when i unplug and replug the charger ,it starts fast charging again and displays remaining time too.

Also I'm on Nougat 7.0
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Amine_Zack:
First thing I never get it to 100%.

80-85% is enough. Never charge it overnight. I wake up with the phone around 78-82% (depends on how much it had when I unplugged it before going to bed)

I come home around 6 and I would still have 35% sometimes even 45% left.

The speed I get usually well, it takes 40 min for me to reach 80-85%

One thing I noticed, is when I don't enable fast charging option, the charging speed doesn't change that much !

Charging very slow

Can anyone help me i tried everything already
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Sprokyshark:
Exact same issue. Fast charge or cable charge doesn't seem to Work anymore. It only charges thinking that a USB is connected. Ampere only shoes a maximum of 300.. The same fast charger is working fine on my s6. Any ideas? Tried a full wipe including internal storage and re flashed the rom and tried few other roms too. No use. The only thing left is to flash stock via odin and check.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] xxxdanver:
I dont know how to fix it im getting frustrated i have read its after the nougat update i tried also reflashing stock roms but its not working..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Sprokyshark:
Flashed stock 6.0.1 and it's still not working damn. What now? No options left? Guess I have to sell this phone now :(

Been using Samsung since the s3 this never happened before.

Micro USB Cable Thickness Differences

Not sure if someone has asked this yet, but I have had both the International Exynos and T-Mobile Snapdragon variants of the GS7 edge and noticed that the micro USB cable for the Exynos version is slighter thicker (thicker gauge) than the Snapdragon version. I purchased the Snapdragon version off of eBay so there's a possibility that the seller switched cables. Can anyone confirm this for me? I also wonder if the difference in thickness changes the charging speed.

In addition, I've found the battery life of the Exynos variant to be much better than the Snapdragon variant. Too bad I dropped my Exynos phone and cracked the screen....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] THEHACKER609:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eezay:
Yo people. I got the same problem as others, that my device charges very slow.

The problem persists since a few days. The device needs 3-4 hours to charge to 100%.

Samsung continues to disappoint me. First the samsung lag, then the dramatically decreasing battery life and now this. Haven't had such problems with my htc one.

Hello everyone I have a big Question for you

what's the average time to charge the phone fully completely after the Oreo update my phone's charging full fully in about 2 hours and 15 minutes before the update my my phone was fully charged in approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes sometimes when I connect the charger it shows me 2 hours and 14 minutes I disconnected and connecting back again and showed me 2 hours and 15 minutes this is a leg a bug or a problem with my charger I switched many cables and the same result I mention the charger and cable are original.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] CrEdge:
For mine, "fast charging" has the same estimated time as "cable charging" with 5V 2A... And when I check using apps, it never goes above 5V though quick charge 2.0 should be 9V.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] fireblade389:
My S7 Edge (G935FD) is 2 years old and is updated to Oreo. It takes about 1hr 35min (95min) roughly to charge from 0-100% from my Mi PowerBank.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] moe7863:
You're doing something wrong..

You guys are doing something wrong lol my S7 Edge charges from 5% to 100% in less than an hour. Ensure that you are charging at 9volts and 1.8amps to get the full benefit of QC. Also, make sure that your charger cable supports fast charge and fast charge is enabled from the battery settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] vgchat:
If you turn on airplane mode, the charge will be even faster.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Zack D'Mello:
I get very fast charging on my S7 Edge. When charging it reaches 2800 mA with a charging mod and ends up charging from 0-100 in less than 1 hour. Really good speeds which are even faster than most of today's flagships
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] renr29:
Is using fast charging everyday have a disadvantage?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Zack D'Mello:
Well it does have some affect on the battery lifespan but it's not a 'bad' thing for the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sithsupersu862:
Y you might want to not use your phone while it's charging. I've also found that if you turn your phone off and charge it with the fast charger in the wall socket.

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge before depleting the battery.

is this normal .. or should i contact samsung ?

No LTE? Are you in bad signal area? Weak signal is killer of batteries.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] danny772:
I don't find LTE is needed but I'm in a pretty good signal area most times.

You think I should go to a Samsung service center ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] nrfitchett4:
I doubt a different device will be any different. Unless the phone is acting up, chances are it's an app or setting causing the trouble. Screen brightness, under location settings, make sure scan BTW and WiFi are turned off, those have been big ones for me in the past. Right now I'm testing adguard which runs VPN on your phone to block ads and it's hitting my battery pretty hard, but with fast charging and big battery, I'm living with it for now.

---------- Post added at 02:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 AM ----------

Also, you might want to set data settings to default and let the phone pick the strongest signal.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Fab49ers:
Temped to return it..

I've a UK version and I've been not really happy with battery life.

First thing, I disables AOD,but that didn't change anything.

I did a factory reset and I did set it up as fresh new without any App and/or Account.

So the phone has Wifi+LTE on and after 21h18m I've 36% left with 1h25m SoT done with Web Browsing.

The settings are standard, no sync, no AOD, Edge night mode.

Should I return the phone?

Thanks for advice
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] uscool:
very impressed with the battery life, took it off charge yesterday around 9pm, been on all day on 4g, great 7 hours screen on time , this with auto brightness, 4 emails syncing

8 Hours is the average times of Screen on people usually get in these circumstances with medium use (video playback etc) Samsung also guarantees and entire season of Game of Thrones on 1 charge. So..... u know... at least 12 hours video lol

My first charge
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] :
Battery lasted 12h 28m before leaving me at 14%. About 5h 37m of on screen time. I'm not impressed. But it could be because I'm so used to the battery life of my previous device (Xperia Z3). Exynos here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] stevae:
if you have an exynos s7 edge, then you are seriously doing some thing very, very wrong. i can get ten hours sot out of mine, if i really try, but easily average between 7.5 and 8.5 under normal conditions, which includes me keeping my screen on bright, with no auto.

you need to get a dark theme going, stop notifications from all apps except those you really need them from, and battery optimize every app except active widgets. then go through and get rid of all the push sync services, and any other crap you never use. this phone can do so much more than most people give it credit for. but they rarely do proper research to optimize it's abilities. laziness gets you five hours sot only. diligence gets you 8-9 hours sot. think about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] :
I just got this phone for like a few days. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I do have the always on display turned on tho. Also I browse reddit and Facebook a lot. Watched Netflix once a while and listen to Spotify quite a bit (more than 2 hours a day). With mybXperia Z3, I could get 24h of battery usage and 8h of screen on time with about 30% left. But the Xperia Z3 is known to have one of the best battery life. So I'm not really surprised.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] pojomojo:
I came from the z3 also with androplus kernel and Rsxw 16.00 by Wolfbreak, I dunno what i was doing wrong then cos I never got 8hrs screen on with 30% left.

I'd say the S7e matches the z3 ( rooted with custom rom and tweaked kernel) right out the box and that pretty amazing.

Here's some sot anyway, I could get way better (like Stevae says) if I turned stuff off but the sot I do get with everything on suits me fine. very happy with battery and device.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] stevae:
all you have to do is follow my instructions above, and i promise you much better battery life.

cheers,

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] quadlt:
Not entirely correct. I have most of bloat and unnecessary crap frozen in Titanium, disabled sync and most features that I don't use. Power saving almost every app as well. My battery life hasn't improved a bit before doing those things and I'm even running the first APC8 build which is the best in terms of battery life (my android system usage never goes above 10%).
