I love my iPad pro but has anyone else noticed extremely slow charging or is it just me?

I assume this is an artifact of the large battery, but just wondering.
 
I plugged mine in for about an hour and agree with you - mine seems to charge slowly.
 
My original Surface Pro has a similar battery size and it takes what seems like an eternity to charge, pretty sure it's just a limitation of the tech. At least this thing will go for more than 3-4 hours between charges.

Yeah certainly no complaints with the battery quality or fast drain. It lasts forever - just wished it didn't have to be added to my list of overnight charging devices. Time to go find another power strip....
 
Has anyone tried charging with the Macbook 29W type-C power adapter? Curious if it supports >5v charging.
