Does Charging Your Phone While Off Make It Charge Faster?

- So this video is a bit of a myth-busting episode, I suppose. You see, there are little things in the tech world that we all say to each other and assume are true but I feel like should actually be tested and proved right or wrong. One such thing and what I want to test today is the claim I've heard over and over that if you turn off your phone while it is charging, it'll charge faster. So I grabbed an Android and an iOS phone (P30 Pro and XS Max to be specific) and charged them both for 15 mins while on and while off to see if there was any change in the speed. Here's what happened.

Good to know!
Thanks for watching bud 👊
lol i came here because you liked TheUnlockr's tweet
Come on Zack, i thought you would be the first one to take this much closer. This test is so shallow!
This depends on a phone and a charging standard, for example Galaxy S7 for sure is only slow charging with a screen on
I work for the manufacturer of one of the devices in this video. In training we spent a lot of time going over positioning statements to customers on how it's better to put the phone into airplane mode or powering it off for faster charging 🍏
I've actually timed it and turning off the phone it does go faster the fact that this guy his is not going any faster tells me there's something wrong with his phone
I thought everything that saves power is also possible to apply on faster charging. But after this video I don't think I'm right 😂
I thought it might improve a little, I think there is room in the charger's power circuits (inside the phone) to deliver energy to the CPU and other circuits
I thought maybe too but guess not 🤷♂️
You should test charging with low power mode on or off
Yes it does and it also depends on the charger. And true it definitely depends on the phone
i was always curious about this, so thanks for giving us an answer!
What's the answer save my time ?
Of course. It's not consuming any power.
Nope
*AIRPLANE MODE OR OFF. I ALWAYS TURN IT OFF.*
It makes no difference. Watch the other video.
Please do a comparison or a review of the PD chargers from aukey, anker ect. vs the included in box chargers. That would be cool.
It really depends on which OEM. For Samsung, screen off will be charging faster if you're not "using" it. My OnePlus One (old I know) it only start fast charging when the screen is off.
It depends. OEM and the charger. My LG v30 charging faster when on airplane mode for example.
When I charge my phone with WiFi off it’s goes more faster
When you turn your phone off, you really only putting the screen and radios to sleep, the charging circuits stay the same based on the batteries needs
How about the fact that your charging the iPhone from 0%? Another myth is you shouldn't charge it below 40-50%
I don't know about faster,but I do notice the charge lasts longer
Was always curious. Thanks for experimenting.
Me too! Thanks for watching!
I think it's best to just have the phone off. If it's on, that means it's discharging as well to the device, instead of just charging the battery. I think it's better for battery life.
Long story short, it depends what charger you have, literally what he says at the end
Huh? No. Long story short. Turning off your phone makes no difference in the charging speed.
next try charging while using (gaming or watching a video) vs screen off. dash charge on the oneplus 3 revolutionized that aspect
Thanks dude. I was looking for this
Samsung has been super conservative with batteries heating up since the note 7, and Galaxy phones will only charge at full speed while the screen is off.
But iPhones and many Androids will just charge at full speed regardless of screen state.
Thanks, this is the video i was looking, and was a little bit hard to find. Greetings!
Thanks for watching it!
Turning the screen off will only make a minimal difference. Try the same with the phone powered down
That's what he just did...
I have an iPhone 12 pro and just discovered that it doesn’t charge while turned off. That’s why I’m here for a solution.
another test you could do is use a app and not just leave the phone on because that probably does have a factor to it
QUESTION: If you bought a new smart phone, does it needs to be shutdown or turned off for its "Initial charge"? And what will happen if you don't?
Buy a $5 USB charge tester from aliexpress. Start charging your device and see what happens. ...on most devices while it's not in use it charges at 1 amp but if you start using it immediately drops to 0.4 - 0.5.
nice, can you do Bluetooth next?
make sure to clear all the background apps that still working
I would have liked to see this done on two of the same phone
Did you watch it? I did the test on the same phone...
Some older smartphones do charge faster when they are off. I know my Galaxy S5 active (yes I still have that thing because I'm broke and today's smartphones just do not have good enough dacs) does charge faster when off. I have tested this myself.
Can you test if charging your phone with a shorter cable has any difference?
And a extremely long cable from a good brand too. Like 3 meter vs 2 meter vs 1 meter or something like that
Having your screen on significantly diminishes the charging speed.
Sometimes apps do update in the background - this still would have no effect?
thanks for a quick mythbusting! I will know that this is a myth now.
Thing is, I left my Ipad air 4th gen charging this morning for about 3 hours is it bad? I always charge my Ipad turned off., I usually turn off the IPAD right away whenever I plug it and I always charge it when it reaches 30-40% amount of battery left. Is it bad that I always charge it turned off? and I left it around 3 hours? Its kinda heated up a bit when I discovered that I left it charging for 3 hours.. please answer thanks! Ive been checking and reaserching lately lots of people say that it has an anti overcharging technology.. but does it still work? that anti overcharging tech when IPAD charges when its turned OFF? because by default apple products turns on whenever you plug it but I turn it off right away when I plugged it. does it make any difference?? thanks!!
Sorry buddy but this is not entirely true Samsung and pixel charge much faster while the screen is of . I had this issue a couple of times . If you have one of them test it. Not all have this issue but Samsung and pixel have for sure
Is it okay to charge while the phone is power off or not?
Fake. Instal sim card and turn on GSM, just after make your "test".
I don't know about what this video was showing me but I know from personal experience when I charge my phone why my phone is on it takes a good 10 minutes for it to get a few charges ahead. I have noticed however when my phone was off it took less time to get to the same charge and yes I timed it using a by checking the time on both. If it's taking the same amount of time in fact I'm willing to bet you need a new phone.
It's better for your battery when you turn it off
But some phones fake the fast charge like one plus does,it charges lightning fast till 50% and then slows down dramatically, so the first 20 min charge test could be false
The biggest difference would have been from 0% regardless which is what I did. Since there was no difference in that it's safe to assume there wouldn't be through out the entire charge
@@TheUnlockr is there any way that you could show us which phone fakes the fast charge?like making a graph of charge % with time of every flagship,this could be the idea for your next video
They are not faking I don't know why you would think that. Batteries have to be charged slower when they are more than 50% full otherwise their life span reduces dramatically. That is why they charge rapidly until 50-70% but then drop in speed so that your battery will last you 2+ years instead of 6months
@@AlfredoFettuccin i didn't knew that actually,thanks for telling tho
@@AlfredoFettuccin but what would you say about iPhones? their battery drops slowly from 100 to 60 but after that it falls down pretty quickly especially when it's below 30
Complete nonsense. He did not play a powerful 3D application. For example, if he was playing PUBG at that time, the difference would be. He does not understand who needs to charge and keep the phone on. Just a gamer. But in office applications or conventional not 3d or leisurely web serf news on the charging process will not affect.
4 days ago I got a REVVL 6 5G and it takes 3hrs to charge on off. From T Mobile
does turning off ur i phone while charging reduce heat?
You busted the myth pal. Thanks.
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the mythbuster.
Thank you for watching!
This type of video is useful. Thank you.
Use the same type of phone
Volts • amps = watts
Not true I tried it I have I phone 13 and 14 when I charge it when it’s on 20 minutes I went from 5 percent to 55 that’s on but when I turn it off I seen it same time I saw it go from 5 percent to only 22 percent in the same time
not samsung phone though....s8 and s9 charge faster when it's off,and I don't know the s10.
but samsung's charge speed is kinda slow by today's standard,even the iphone have the ability to charge at 18w(you need to buy the charger separately of cause),but samsung still sticks with 15w and 5w when the screen is on,thats lame.
samsung is actually rolling an update to make it 25w (yeah somehow through a software update)
@@DarkThirst yeah,but you need to buy a new charger🙄🙄🙄
@@xinvan2826 yeah but same as the iphone, but from the s10 5g and note 10 its gonna come with it
Thanks a lot this was helpful
Good video dude! Thank you.
вранье! при включеном тырнете телефон практически не заряжается.
Let's find out.
You are way wrong i turn my off and it charges faster lmao.
I think it should be same phone and same charger so that you can see the real difference . But great video.
it used too 😔
Thumbsupit?
Thumbitup!
Who watching at 6 or less
The iPhone is so outdated and old technology. Who buys that garbage?
What about low power mode?
Won't be a difference if off isn't different
thank you !!!!!
As always good video.
Hi speaking about and saying without charging with the phone of his faster and charging with the phone is on slower my personal experience is that when I keep my phone on the charges slower than when I put the phone on because when I put the phone of the charges faster also could be depending on the brand a model I have a Poco C40 phone that's the results I get to let you know that it's not the same results as the two results I get to compare with your result you get through the test shown in the video
I have a motorola g 73 5g and I always charge it turne off because the difference is noticeable..
Myth Busted!!
🙌🙏
@@TheUnlockr I think it depends on the fast charging technology being used from my experience Qualcomm quick charge does slow down with screen on vs off while huawei super charge, oppo vooc and iPhone's aren't really affected if it is on vs off so I think you should redo the test with a larger variety in quick charge technology's especially Qualcomm quick charge considering that is what is used on most phones.
Apple closed companies 🤩china 🤙
interesting
Do the same phone!!!
Both phones are done twice... So the same phone is done twice...
Wtf
Yes
Thumbs up
100th like.. take it.. 😄
😍HANDSOME AF♥️💋💦

I m first!!
What about low power mode?
If off isn't any different, low power won't be either
