Even with fast charge enabled, the 4g version of s10 only supports 15 watt fast charging.

Took me 2 seconds to Google this

Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, and Galaxy S10 Plus all support the older Quick Charge 2.0 standard, which means these phones have an upper limit of 15W for charging. The Galaxy S10 5G, however, supports Quick Charge speeds at up to 25W.

Hi, 

I am S10plus owner too, yes you are correct, we capped at 15watt fast charging, except for 5G version.

I don't think so for now, but let see in the future, but still I wouldn't hope that much.

 

Anyway probably Samsung decided this to protect our battery/phone, but as I say, let see..

Live and learn. 😅

In all honesty, I don't see any real benefit to it. It's only good if the battery is low and need a quick charge to get back up and running. It's more for the power battery draining users that can't survive the day on one charge. For those charging overnight and can live the entire day without charging, it's pretty pointless. At least in my view.

You also need a power brick that is capable of delivering the wattage to charge.

Note 10+ supports it and it also included the slightly larger 25w brick. I only use it on the odd occasion where I did need a quick charge. But other than that I just use regular charging.

No, unless Samsung has underclocked it via software, I don't think s10 4g will see 25 watt charging.
