battery falling while charging and using s7

[Bing]

So while I'm doing slow charge, ie not using official charger, the charge is extremely slow. Like 10 hours to fill (cable charge is 5-6 hours) . If I use the slow charge and phone at same time, the battery still falls. Not drastically but like the numbers won't increase and only fall every several mins or so.

Also I bought an unofficial fast charger and it still does cable charging.

My phone didn't come with original as I bought second hand.

Normally cheap cables and AC charges from Ebay or dollar stores perform much worse than official or higher priced cables and AC chargers. It follows the principle of "You get what you pay for"

I notice that my old Samsung chargers from my older phones do a fine job at charging my s7 edge. You could ask friends or relatives to see if they have these old chargers around or buy them from your local flee markets etc.

If I'm using iPhone charger I wouldn't consider it cheap. And cable I believe is original.

Just go buy an official fast charger n cable set. BTW an iPhone charger is not designed to charge anything but an iPhone n even then it's common knowledge that an iPad charger (12w ones that comes with ipad air) will charge your iPhone faster than the iPhone charger (lower output).

I should add that I have an s7 edge (even larger battery than the s7), I also have the ipad air (12w charger) n ipad pro (10w), and the Samsung fast charger is definitely faster than either one of those ipad chargers. The iPhone charger is only rated for 5w n 1a, which in a sense is not just cheap but very cheap in terms of power output.

5-6 hours with cable charge wow that is so long. mines 1.5 hours from like 2-3% I use the original cord that came with my phone. usually I will check and less than an hour it's at 100% already.
