Finally I was able to purchase a Samsung 25 watts charger and cable online via the fb page of Samsung store and service center at sm megamall and Ayala circuit. The charger cost 749php and the type c to type c cable cost 400php. While using it nag appear naman ung super fast charging indicator and the time on when will it be fully charged. Kaso I noticed parang hindi accurate ung indicated time, its longer than the time na nag appear sa screen, so on my succeeding charge I timed it, and hindi talaga sya nag match. Mas matagal tlaga sya kesa sa prompted time sa screen. I'm not using the phone while it's charged naka lock lang sya while naka on ung wifi. Does it affect kaya? Or may something sa nabili kong charger and cable? Looking forward for your feedbacks 😉
If I recall correctly, the time indicated takes into account the status of the device at that exact moment. If no factors or variables change OR if they don't deviate too much, then the indicated time will be followed. But, even idle, phones do some background activity like check for cellular or wifi signal, or some app processes.
One way to speed things up? Put the device in airplane mode. Or better yet, turn the phone off while charging. No risk of overheating and shortening battery life this way. Interestingly enough, most charging times advertised by phone companies were recorded while the device was turned off.
Also, as the battery gets closer to 100 percent, charging time gets slower to also prevent excessive heat.
So to sum up, charging time indicated is only accurate at the exact moment you checked. Background activity and system processes may affect it.

Amazing day! Jan her e from Samsung. Thank you for sharing your concern here in the Samsung member community. In regards to your concern, It is better to turn off your device while charging, as background apps still consume battery life even on idle. So make sure to turn off the phone and your background apps while charging to meet the accurate indicated time. Stay safe and have a blessed day.
