[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] randomhkkid:
Charge around 30% and unplug around 80%

---------- Post added at 11:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 AM ----------

Under Settings --> Battery there is an option to disable the fast charging. With it turned on you'll see 'Fast Charging' when you plug in the phone and it will indeed charge faster. This fast charging will only work on the QC2.0 capable chargers.

If you disable the fast charging the device will charge about 20% slower (ie the normal speed of a 2.1A charger).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] edyfrances:
Actually when I charge the battery with regular charger ( picture) it charge fast doesn't matter if the faster charger option is "off " it will charge fast. I have never try with the option faster charge "on " maybe will be faster..it will be amazing faster ..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] randomhkkid:
Hmm that shouldn't be the case, the software switch should disable it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dave7802:
To answer the OP.

My Charging cycle is so messed up with this device.

My old Note, i would just charge it once per day at night while i sleep. (Maybe abit in work - Use Sidesync)

My Edge though, I charge when in work on an Normal USB Desktop Connection (I use SideSync)

This adds about 20-30% thoughout the day (Given it being used and charged)

When am at home and about to go to sleep, my battery is normally around 50%

I fall asleep and wake up with it on 48%

Go to work and the cycle continues.

Not left the phone on charge overnight yet. I just dont need to top it up that much with juice.

Very good battery life. Samsung done good on its optimisation.

Apple where the first to bring this tech, It was inbuild into the Laptop battery's.

The idea being is the battery holds a chip and instead of a normally battery Charging from A-Z to 100%

The Chip would check each Letter to see its charged or not, then only charge the letters not full.

It would also drain the battery based on where it charged and last ran from. I.e. Letter X was the last block to charge, So it will run from Y to X

(Ensuring the batter uses all the energy stored in a full cycle)

When the device hits 100% the battery is not touched.

I would imagin this same technology has been implemented to anything with a frequent battery charge.

As it stops people overcharging devices.

Overcharging works like:

Charges from A-Z to 100%

But as A-H already is at 100% the charger will continue to charge the A-H

Making the energy in here dead over time.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Anbu7elite:
sometimes I charge it between 30%-80% because I've heard that's the best way to prolong your battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
Not true. Charge it when you need, modern battery are smart. This tricks belongs to the past.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Anbu7elite:
i thought that this applies to all lithium-ion batteries which is what the s7 edge and the reason was because of higher temperatures at certain percentages when charging the phone

so is it not bad to leave it charging to 100% all of the time and overnight?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
No, it is not. Read the previous posts, that was explained.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neezy13:
The protection circuit will cut power to a Li-Ion battery once it is fully charged. The only concern with leaving the phone plugged in for long periods of time would be excess heat build-up which can shorten battery life, but over night is not long enough to cause problems. For long term storage purposes, you should charge the battery to about 40-50% and shut off the device.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
Has anyone checked the temperatures when the phone is charging (both normal and fast)? My phone's temperature is 35° average with normal charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ilordvader:
Mine also shows 35 on Wireless Charging
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
And what about normal cable charge?

Sended from my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Gold Platinum
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ilordvader:
started with 30% then 32% in 5mins

When I charge my phone wirelessly on the New Fast Charge Flat base it charges only 25% in 1hr

with wire it charges faster
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
I see. If I use it during normal charge, it reach about 35°, but I think it is normal.

Sended from my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Gold Platinum
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ilordvader:
you are correct after some time when i saw it did reach 35%
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
So what's the juice? Me and almost all user here charge their phone when they reaches 5% or less (but never 0%) and then they charge it until 100%. Is this a problem for the life of battery?

I know. By looking at those reviews, those users are putting the maximum wattage in (1500 watts +). The Samsung Charger only uses 10 watts. I've used it for over a year now with no problems.

I use a LG G3, 2 years later, looking at LG G5... Its ugly, smaller screen, no back buttons, no wireless charging, disappointed, so... now looking at P9 Plus as the best phone out there... Where are you coming from? And why the interest in the P9?

For me apealing features :

(Other main features are add on for me ;) ?? )

Like force touch+3400mAh+price+......

ALL THESE TOGATHER....finally!!!

Is there any phone with same or more features combined ;) :)

Yes there was a phone with almost same features. ...HTC ONE ME but screen little small and Zero development.... so sad :(

Hope P9 Plus will get good support from Devs here in XDA

I am interested in the P9 Plus or the HTC 10, I'll be coming from a HTC M9+, I am also interested in the big screen, IR and stereo speakers. I just worry about the speediness of Huawei on OS upgrades. Not sure the P8 has officially got Marshmallow everywhere yet, so Lord knows when you'd get Android N with the P9 or P9 Plus
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] Preggy:
Totally agree, this is like the phone I've been waiting for since I got my G2. Unfortunately to me the 3rd party dev support is what's gonna make it or break it...
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] scook94:
I've been a loyal BlackBerry user for as long as I've had a smartphone: 9000, 9800, Z10, Z30 and currently Passport. Unfortunately even I've had to admit that BB10 is in it's final death throes. I flirted with the Sony Xperia S between the 9800 and the launch of the Z10 and the 3rd party ROM development was a big attraction. However the spec of the P9 Plus ticks all the boxes and coupled with the fact that I'm a Leica owner anyway, the draw (gimmick) of the Leica tie in, means that even without the ROM development the P9+ is likely to be my next phone.

Planning to come from Note 2... if everything goes well... especially price and dev support.
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] GrievingJosh:
I hope the dev community gets even a little support, because I plan to come from a ZTE Axon Elite, the Mate 8 has a decent amount of dev support including ROM's and stuff so hopefully the P9 Plus does too. Other than that, the AMOLED display, the faster more efficient processor, bigger battery, and (hopefully) better camera are drawing me over my current device, I would highly doubt audio is better though.

Here are a few articles on P9/Plus.

==>

weak:

-****ty default UI & bloatware

-camera is decent but not breaking headlines

good:

apart from the weakness, all is superb

==>

so if someone from xda released an excellent and stable custom rom 6 month after release, this will fix the ****ty UI and bloatware problem, and the phone shall be one of the best on the market. Yes?!

If so i'm gonna make the switch from my iphone 6 plus :)
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] KingOfSand:
Have a Sony Z2 since release and searching for a new phone. I am interested in the camera, big memory and battery. Seems like a great phone! Hope the "bugs" will be fixed like battery drain and something with the SD-card not being able to behave like internal memory (please correct me).

Only a month left until I am able to buy a P9 plus. Oh, it is not shipped with the possibility to use 2 sims here in Sweden.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently using the Huawei P9 Plus and I have to say wow just wow. I'm using the 128gb Ceramic White with 4gb The Chinese model (VIA-L10) with att network in the USA.

The camera on this device is definitely boss.

Here are a few Photo of the device

Yes, it does fast charge, just make sure you use the supplied 3A adapter.

Front camera is great, Huawei was the first big manufacturer that bumped the resolution of the camera, so i wasn't expecting less.

As a long term user of Huawei phones with the P6, Honor 6 & 7, I now got my eyes on the P9 plus (not so impressed with the Honor V8 in comparison). Its a jump to a 5.5 inch screen which i would not have made if the P9 had force touch, stereo speakers and amoled like the P9 plus.

I have not decided if to buy the Silver or Gold. Silver was my first preference but both look good to me and my wife prefers the gold. Silver has the nice brushed look and looks guyish atleast on pictures, while gold has a nice lighter shade of gold. I don't know how both look in real hands and i have feeling the gold will look more premium and unique. So despite my first preference i am edging towards the gold.

Lastly whats bothering is the hefty price compared to the previous Huawei phones i have purchased. I prefer the Chinese versions as the rom gets better updates and more optimized despite compromise on Chinese stuff that hangs around at places. The resellers have added a 100$ more for the 128gb (only version with force touch in China, and no nfc on any versions :( ) which makes it not worth the price. But i hopefully will get it purchased and shipped through a personal contact in China.
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] warea:
Can users with the P9+ post pictures (real looking as possible) of the Silver variant ? Some reviewers talk of the polished metal feeling cheap, any views on that ?

Also the black borders on screen is least annoying for the Silver variant because of its black color front.

Gold

White

Silver

Hi, I've seen that you've come from HTC 10. I just want to ask this question, how's the audio quality of the P9 compared to HTC 10 using earphones? I've seen many positive feedbacks regarding the audio quality of the HTC 10 and a little to none with Huawei P9. According to the spec sheet at GSMarena, it has 24-bit/192kHz audio, would you mind sharing your thoughts with the capability of P9 in that department? Thank you. :good:

[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] Odinforce:
Currently i own a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M40X, they are not the best around but get the job done nicely on a budget.

First time i used them with the P9 Plus i was impressed, not blown away but impressed nonetheless.

It packs a good punch with loud and clear sound, don't get me wrong i'm by no means an audiophile but i do find myself lowering down the volume quite often.

The Tensilica DSP found in The P9+ does a hell of a job FOR ME.

I came from HTC 10 and was pleasantly surprised by the UI. Clean and light the way i like it, not quite as good as Sense Ui but better then TW.

Pricing is weird out here. I purchased from China via a friend of mine the 128gb silver for 720$ including dhl shipping. But now i see the 64gb international version gold color being sold here for a special offer price of only 575$ which is 50$ less than the pricing for 64gb being sold in China.

I personally don't consider any phone high priced worth it, but this phone was too tempting to buy. I love the phone and comparing to my previous honor 7 an excellent upgrade. I actually do like the soft finish metal look and feel compared to the traditional metal feel. It brings the feel somewhere between metal and glass. I love the brushed look of the silver and that black front hides away the black borders of the display which is a great plus. Looks unique and can stand on its own, compared to other phones that all look alike. Finally a camera phone that i don't have to be embarrassed in front of an iphone or S7. Gorgeous and way better display compared to the Honor 7 (although i have feeling there is still some touch issues that need to be fixed with rom upgrades). Polished and smooth UI with none of the lags compared to Honor 7 and plenty of small but useful changes.

As for force touch, i do find the corner touch options to open apps useful, while the others need more refining. Force touching an app icon opens up to a limited default options only and should have been customizable to user preference. Then its a problem of Android not catching up to force touch and so for now its up to users sending feedback with creative ways of implementing force touch features. [Maybe some new way of bringing up the notification panel/shortcuts with force touch as i find the whole traditional top down panel and layout completely off for a big screen phone.]

I had been using the HTC One M8 for the last 2 years, and while it still works fine, I wanted something with a better camera and the convenience of a fingerprint scanner.

Spent a long time researching phones, there are so many excellent choices this spring/summer, but finally decided on the P9 Plus, since I wanted to try a new brand and it ticked all the boxes for me. And the final argument came around when my phone provider offered it bundled with a Huawei Watch for just 65 euro extra (and I'm loving the watch :D)

Phablet-Lover

Huawei makes very handsome and sleek looking phones. I love the small bezels and large screen of the Ascend Mate 7. Looking for a newer phablet, I wanted the P9 Plus but they made the screen smaller that of the P8 Max (6.8 in). I think if you go big you might as well go really big. A 6.8 inch phone fits in my pocket fine. I have already tested this in a store.

Coming from a Mate 8 and I got my VIE-AL10 128GB in Ceramic White a few days ago. But now Im trying to decide on whether or not to keep it or sell it and keep my Mate 8. I was expecting the pictures to come out better then what the Mate 8 puts out but honestly I cant see any real difference and low light photos on the P9 are falling short and actually have more noise than the Mate 8. Im beginning to wonder what role the monochrome sensor actually plays in the low light aspect. I can actually cover the mono chrome sensor, take a picture, then uncover it and take a picture and when I compare the two there isnt any difference. Anyone else have any similar experience?

when it comes to camera, my second phone is the boy wonder from microsoft, 950xl so i barely use anything else but in general s7 edge is much better in low light, but if u have a steady hands then just use the night shot mood in p9 and i like the p9 in good lighting more actually, better lenses i guess.

The last phones I been using have been

- iPhone 6

- Huawei Honor 7

- Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (rooted)

Now I switched to P9 Plus after having cracked the screen on my S7 Edge (damn you, wearing shorts and trying to lift a baby stroller up the stairs), I bought the P9 Plus. So far, I must say I have never been this pleased with any phone I had in the past. The "out of the box" user interface feels a bit "meeeh", but always been using Nova launcher anyway, so that means nothing to me.

Basically, on any phone in the past there's been 1 or 2 things that annoys me, and that I haven't been able to sort. The P9 Plus just works, and really happy with it :)
