Charging
We no longer need to wait hours to charge our phones
- assuming you have the right charger. With a dead
phone and the charger that’s included in the box, here’s
how much juice you’ll have after an hour of charging:
OnePlus 7T: 100 percent
Google Pixel 4 XL: 77 percent
Samsung Galaxy S10+: 74 percent
Apple iPhone 11: 33 percent
Two things here: the OnePlus 7T’s incredible Warp
Charging, and the iPhone’s not-incredible 5-watt
charger. While Apple’s ‘Pro’ phones enjoy a swift
18-watt USB-C charger, the iPhone 11 is still saddled
with a Lightning-based 5-watt plug. So if you buy one,
you’ll want to pick up a way bigger third-party charger.
