Elephone has limited the battery voltage to 3.7, I'm not 100% sure if that limits the charging too. If it does limit charging, is it possible to remove the limit as a big battery needs a lot of charging time, mine takes 3 hours with a 2A 5V samsung charger and about 4 with elephone charger.
I'm not sure if the voltage limit can be removed, but considering how big the battery is, I'd say 3 hours isn't bad at all to charge from very low to 100%.

Elephone advertised it can be fully charged in 90 minutes, of course I don't expect my phone to do 0-100 in 90 minutes but it should be able to do less than 3 hours(double the time advertised)

To be fair Elephone advertised that you gain 10% in 10 minutes ... which is true if we're talking about 5%-15% (try it), but not true if we're talking about 90%-100%

REALLY?? Wow I don't remember reading this anywhere! I just assumed 3 hours was decent, although I'm coming from a ~3 year old HTC One that seemed to almost be on its last legs.
Do you remember where you read it? Cause I'm curious now...

Sorry my bad, must of been another phone I was looking into at the time of buying my P8000
They have set that charging rate for the fastest most reliable,any higher could cook the battery?
This phone has a whopping battery and for most is more than adequate for daily use,unless your awake 24/7,then your a zombie maybe.

Good morning guys...
I am really impressed with the new pattern that OnePlus has introduced with the OP3, the DashCharger and its improvements over other patterns, as speed and better heat dissipation.
I do not have my OP3 yet, I live in Brazil and things are a little bit harsh here.. but I bought (imported) one and I am just waiting it to arrive.
I saw in many reviews that DashCharge takes about 1 hour to fill the battery and what I want is: you that already have the OP3 on hands, could give us a feedback about other type of charging
and the time it takes? Can you use a normal 5V1A adapter and another one that implements QC2.0 and post here?
I want that because I have 2 units of QC2.0 charger and with the new OP3 I do not intent to get rid of them if the time to full charge isn't too different and buying the special cable/charger for me (and maybe other)
could not be easy/cheap and maybe it does not compensate!
If no one could do that test, I will perform it myself when I get my OP3... till there, if you could help me, I will appreciate!
Thanks for now and sorry about english!
I have the original charger, but i had a Nexus 6P too, and the 6P used QC 3.0. The OnePlus 3 is charging a bit faster than the 3.0. OnePlus charges 3% in ~3minutes, and the 6P was like that. I think you should charge your phone with the original charger, but in fact you could use QC2 charger i think. Hope i helped (Sorry for bad English)
Thanks for reply,
I would like to know how many time does de OnePlus take to charge from 0 to 100% with Original DashCharger, a QC2.0 and a normal charger... if you could tell in minutes (average)
I have the HTC 10 and the OnePlus 3. The OnePlus 3 is drastically faster than the HTC 10 with Q QC 3.0. I remember walking away frm my OP3 for like 10 minutes, it had charged about 20%. In abut 30 minutes it's at 63% and my HTC 10 is at 44%. My OP3 fullyharges in about 72-74 minutes, my HTC 10 is aound 1 hour, 40 minutes.
74 min?
i get a rate of 2% per minute charge.
50min for full battery

QC3.0/3.0 is also much more heavily affected by heat (and as such, using the device), whereas Dash charging is not since heat is dissipated at the charger itself instead of at the phone.
a bit harder to find dash charging accessories though..... at least right now

It doesn't matter, download an app called Ampere and check the intensity, it charges with ~4A for the first ~30 minutes and then lowers down to ~2A.
Conclusion: It charges super fast only first 30 minutes and then it slows down.

I'm very familiar with it. My point is dash/quick charging is purposed for when your phone is near 0 and you're in a hurry, it will get you as much as it can as quick as it can but with lithium ion batteries it's causes too much damage to go all the way to 100%

Well that, and naturally all batteries tend to slow as they charge, not to prevent damage but just the way they work. The reason it's "0-60 in 30 minutes" and not "0-100 in 50 minutes" is that after 60, all modern phone batteries tend to cap off.

I had a 6p before I bought the op3 and I totally disagree. The 6p took 45mins to 1hour longer to charge, of course the battery was a little bigger but it was much slower for sure.

I ordered my oneplus 3 on 14th june and it arrived on 16th june. For quite a time the battery was working good but from past one month, phones battery has been degrading quite quickly and it takes a littke longer time to charge like earlier is used to take about an hour to charge completely and now it takes 1 hour and 12 minutes plus earlier it used to charge about 75-79% in half an hour but now it charges only 69%
So what ahould I do?

If it was normal then i wouln't have posted it
60% in 30min is common with dash charge.
charging gets slower the more ur charging level already is.
72min for a full charge is pretty good tbh
If i accept that then whats the reason for the degradation of the battery

since ur battery behaves as normal, no.
mine takes with dash
92% (5% to 97%) = 67min
95% (4% to 99%) = 70mins
and so does yours, consider that a different charging level or usage while charging changes the charging behaviour.
even the room temperature might change the charging speed.
Whats the reason behind quick degradation of battery then?

It had nothing to do with battery degradation. Your phone consumes energy a dwell when charging. An empty freshly wiped phone will charge faster then one bombed with apps. Nothing to worry about.

Every post of yours contains the term "battery degradation". But apart from the minor difference in charging time (which seems to be normal), you have not explained what you mean by "battery degradation".
Do you mean to say that your charged battery does not last as long as it used to? Or something else?
Hello team
I'm coming with a question regarding the battery of the nubia read magic 5S.
I have been with the phone for less than one week and I am checking that the battery capacity is not the same as the one that is stated by Nubia. It should be 4500 mah but I have 4000 according to the accu battery app.
Can someone please double check this capacity in your phones?
Thanks

the Capaacity on mine is quite good. i think less than 3% when full its 4370mah or around that the last time i checked.
its possible you've charged it at poor intervals. and maybe used a speed charger of some kind.
for the health of the battery and to test. do this for the next 3 or so days.
during the day try to get the phone to around 5% (no lower than 3%) try not to do this fast like with gaming heavy or whatever.
then connect to a slow charger 2 or 3 amps max. and allow to charge to 100% without using the phone. allow 10 minutes grace time after the phone is fully charged to allow the battery to cool a little.
then again use the phone as you would, up to 5% again. and repeat the process 3 times. then check your capacity. that will be your real capacity. if you follow those steps exactly.

it may be best then to contact nubia or the seller you bought the phone from. if the battery is faulty or old is should be replaced. its very odd that the battery is not the rated 4400mah especially for a device that is just new. a small discrepancy like mine 2-3% is usually alright for something left in storage for 2-3 months after manufacture. but if you're past a large amount of capacity in such a short time, its possible that the battery is faulty and will need to be replaced.
do try other battery monitor apps incase your app is giving false readings. But I would contact Nubia about a warranty repair. if you bought it directly from Nubia, @JerryYin may be able to help forward your request.

Hey guys,
Long time accubattery user here.
You'll have to uninstall the app and re-install it before trying the above.
The estimates are not great for long term information but benefit more over long term (months).
If you want a fast reading, try the above but also check your estimated capacity on the main screen (charging), go to the bottom and you'll see it there. Make sure your phone is fully charged first.
My estimated capacity was 4000mah originally, but now I'm showing 4545mah (on the 5G, not 5S).

2. DTS X crashes on bluetooth headphones everytime, works OK with wired, but come on, it's 2020, everything's

3. Every few days you need to clear "Bluetooth system app's" cache otherwise it stops connecting with paired

Hi guys. My battery does great until it hits 25% at which point it drains fast for unknown reasons. Is it possible that one part of the battery is defective, such that the battery does fine until it has 25% left? Is there a fix for that? Or is it possible to remove the battery and replace it with a new one?

What do you mean by 'fast'. I've had my ALOO for 2 years and have noticed a slight reduction in overal battery life (as to be expected) which does appear to drain slightly quicker after 25% but it could not be described as "fast".

So it goes from 25% to zero within 2 hours with similar usage prior to it eaching 25%. I'd call that fast
Mine takes about 18 hours to reach 25% from full charge with normal usage then about 4 hours to reach zero. I dont consider that fast but power lose is quicker.
Hence my question. Fast is meaningless without sone form of a definition.

My phone takes 3 - 4 days from full charge to 25%. Thereafter it drains to 0% in less than 6 hours.
Mostly everyone who owns a 20x have similar battery life with exception to those with abnormal drain myself and another user on this thread included.
Fast is a relative term yet everyone understands 'fast' when compared to the rest of their battery life.
So we have very similar usage and drain times. I've just put that down to one of those things to be expected as the battery gets older. i.e. not abnormal. Guess it's down to a matter of differing expectaions/perceptions.

No we dont have similar drain times. You said this:
"Mine takes about 18 hours to reach 25%. So it goes from 25% to zero within 2 hours with similar usage prior to it reaching 25%."
Contrast to my battery of 3 - 4 days normal usage followed by a steep decline from 25% - 0% in less than 6 hours.
I dont see the similarity between our phones.
.
18 hours normal usage for me = 3 to 4 days for me. That's about 6 to 4.5 hours usage per day.

Hi my name is Ajay I am working KHD VALVES AUTOMATION (KHD VALVES)
This covid pandemic issue regarding I was buying this one plus 9 pro series for whole day office work but my question is It's been 3 weeks I have been using this phone and the charging speed is not upto the mark. Earlier it did give me 29 minutes.. Now it is deviating by 20 minutes.
Are you leaving any apps open when you charge? Or leaving the screen on? I've noticed if anything is using battery during charging it seems to affect charging speed more than I would expect. Overall it's still blazing fast compared to previous phones though.
Could be an open app...
For me, this Warp Speed 65 charge is super fast.
I like to maintain the Battery with approximately 20%-80% charging range. But if I turn away for a few minutes, it's already into the 90's%!

The charge is fastest when the battery is low, charging will reduce as the battery gets closer to 100% so as not to damage it.

As per the below screenshot it's showing that the device needs 28 min to charge from 35 to 100 , isn't it way more the time that was advertised , though I am using optimised charging and the time of charging no app was opened in the background.
