60w charging isnt fast enough for you? That is zero to 60 in about 30ish minutes. Full charge in 80-90mins.


Most people only charge at night. If you need to charge during the day and you arent a business man or woman who needs to be on their phone for long period, then any fast charging of any speed should be fast enough.


We don't need 100W chargers.


The battery is bigger, how about you be happy with that.


Those other phones thst charge at ridiculously high speed is so not necessary.

60w does sound like the same old device but if we see improvements elsewhere it's now bad. I think the reason why they haven't gone passed this is probably for safety reasons. As the device ages that kind of high current running through could cause some mishaps so to be safe maybe that's why their not increasing it. Personally I would love to see faster charging times in the 80 range maybe even 99W who knows how much a difference it would make overall to someone's day.

Lets put it this way ........ Who would it benefit more if you had to wait an hour plus to charge your phone ?

Considering my S26 ultra is the price of a mid-range computer one would think they would have FAR better and faster charging capabilities. The rest are advancing while Samsung takes advantage of their loyal users, shame.

I don't understand your question. Why would any specific charge time be a benefit to anyone and for what reason. I agreed with AltronLivez51 in that 5 or 10 min of charge time doesn't seem like it should be a deal breaker. The higher the charge wattage the more heat and heat is a killer for batteries. Just like benchmarks are pretty much nonsensical measurements of how a phone performs in real life use, i think too many get hung up on specmanship. This is just my humble opinion however.

I don't understand this site's obsession with higher charge speeds. It may save you a few minutes but then degrades the battery. You should focus the type of battery and capacity.
