- The Galaxy S23 series takes much longer to wirelessly charge than the S22 range, a test found.
- The S23 Ultra in particular took 39 minutes longer to hit 100% than the S22 Ultra.
Samsung has offered wireless charging on its best Android phones for years now, and the Galaxy S23 series is no different. The company has stuck with 15W speeds this time, but a new test suggests that the Galaxy S23 series seriously lags behind its predecessors.
PhoneArena pitted the Galaxy S23 family against the Galaxy S22 series and several iPhone models in a wireless charging test. The outlet used a Samsung 15W wireless charging pad ( EP-P2400) for all Galaxy phones while using Apple’s official 20W charger for iPhones.
