This.Turning it over might help to charge faster
It’s like a steak. You just need to “cook” both sides.
Then I’m sure I won’t charge it past 20%. Because I like my steak medium rare.
Nah we don't trust you now. A time lapse video is needed now as proof.
Medium rare should be standard.
Anything higher is an abomination against nature.
So you guessed but kinda stated it as fact. Not many would complain about a 100% charge in 90 minutes.
Just how fast would you like it to go from 0 to 100%, couple of minutes?
Next year’s iPhone. 0 to 100% in 89 mins...
Tonight i will track every second and minute
i will count each % in each minutes and
i will multiply and divide and subtract and plus
= ????
LOL! Enjoy your evening.
Most people charge at night. So when you wake up your phone is ready for a long day.
I think I’ll prefer it in 1080p 240fps so that I can slow it down when it’s increasing in 1% so that I can time it down to the last millisecond. For all we know his iPhone could have been fully charged in 8:59:59:999
pretty sure they said that it only charges with 5w at launch and will be increased to 7.5w with a later software update.

That’s a lot slower than TS’s 90 mins go full charge with wireless charger. But then we don’t really know at what percentage did he started charging it.
What about you sir? Did you start charging it at 0%? And were you using your phone while charging it?

Now that’s interesting. Thanks for the link and good info!
Started at 0% after my 8+ died with an empty battery. Only used it for about 3 min since I started. WIFI-ON. Will let you know when its fully charged and how long it took....
0,58% per minute is the present charging rate (78% in 135min) with the original Apple charger.
From 78% to 88% in only 15min...
After 2h50min 95% with Apple charger 0,56% per minute.
After 3h03min 98% => 0,53% per minute
After 3h10min still 98%
After 3h13min 99%
3h16min 100% => 0,51% per minute

OP, just set a timer on the phone. No need to sit there and stare at it through the process lol As someone else said, the charge time is not linear. After 80% the charge time increases to get to the next percent. My guess would be somewhere around 2-2.5 hours from 1-100% charge.
I have never seen an iPhone charger as fast as 90 minutes even with a cable
Yeah which makes me think he either meant 90 hours or he started with his phone at 90%.
Small charger brick included in iPhone box is 1amp 5 Watts. iPad brick is 10 Watts 2? Amps. You can get a 12 Watt 2.4 amp iPad brick.
So if wireless charging is 7.5 Watts x? Amps then makes sense it would be faster than the included 1amp 5 watt brick.
Also wireless charging means you have to leave your phone on the pad not used vs having the ability to use your phone while charging with wired which can also affect charge times.
While charging from 0% is scientific it is not friendly to your battery. Consider 20%.
