Did you know that the charging animation
0:02
on your Samsung smartphone's lock screen
0:06
gives detailed and specific information
0:09
about the charger that you're using?
0:12
Come with me.

Yes, the new charging animation on your
0:24
Samsung lock screen gives you vital
0:28
information that lets you know what type
0:31
of charger you're using, and I'm going
0:33
to demonstrate it in this video. For our
0:36
demonstration, I have three chargers
0:38
here. This charger is a regular charger,
0:42
5 watt speed. This charger does 25 watt
0:47
fast charging. And this charger is an
0:51
original Samsung 45 watt super fast
0:55
charger. What I'm going to do is connect
0:57
each and every one of these chargers to
0:59
this phone one by one and show you what
1:02
pops up on the charging animation on the
1:05
lock screen. This is our first test
1:08
using the standard 5 W charger. Watch
1:11
this.
1:15
The animation is is a gradient green and
1:17
it says charging 89% 24 minutes until
1:21
full. Take note of that. It just says
1:24
charging and that animation is a green
1:28
gradient. That's how 5 W and 10 watt
1:32
chargers are represented when connected
1:35
to your Samsung smartphone. Up next is
1:38
the 25 watt fast charger.
1:40
Watch the lock screen.
1:44
It's a green gradient, but now it says
1:46
fast charging. 89% 23 minutes until
1:50
full. The animation is the same. Green
1:53
gradient, but now it says fast charging.
1:56
I'll show you again.
2:00
You see that fast charging?
2:03
This is how a fast charger 18 W 25 W
2:08
maybe 33 W will be is represented in a
2:12
Samsung phone's charging animation. And
2:15
now for our third charger, the 45 watt
2:19
fast charger from Samsung itself. This
2:22
phone supports 45 W fast charging. Let's
2:25
see what happens.
2:28
Now the animation is different. It's a
2:30
purplish bluish gradient animation. And
2:34
then it says super fast charging. 22
2:37
minutes until full. Let's do that again
2:39
so you can see.
2:43
Super fast charging 2.0.
2:47
22 minutes until full. So this is how
2:50
chargers that support higher fast
2:52
charging speeds 45 watts and above are
2:55
represented when plugged into a Samsung
2:59
smartphone.
3:00
I do not recall whether this particular
3:03
feature was available in 1 UI7
3:07
but this one has been updated to 1 UI 8.
3:10
So I am sure that if you have a Samsung
3:13
smartphone running 1 UI8, the lock
3:16
screen charging animation will display
3:19
this information as I have. So anytime
3:21
you plug in a charger to a compatible
3:24
Samsung smartphone, you can tell what
3:27
kind of charger what speed to expect.
3:31
The one that shows a bluish purple
3:34
gradient animation and says super fast
3:36
charging supports 45 W and above. The
3:40
one that has a green gradient animation
3:42
and says fast charging supports 18 25 W.
3:46
And the one that just shows a green
3:49
gradient and says charging is a regular
3:52
charger that does 5 W and likely 10 W.
3:57
That's the information I wanted to share
3:59
with you. Immediately you plug in a
4:01
charger to your phone, you can tell
4:02
whether it's doing the maximum charging
4:04
speed that the phone supports or not.
4:08
That way you can tame your expectations.
4:11
You can adjust your expectations. Let me
4:14
know what Samsung phone you use and what
4:17
software version is on it and if you are
4:20
able to get the same experience out of
4:22
it. Thanks for watching this video. Do
