How To Fix Slow Charging Problem on Samsung Galaxy S5, S4 and Note 3

Slow charging is a common and popular problem among Samsung devices like the Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3. These devices have huge batteries inside. The Galaxy S5 has a 2800 mAh battery, the Galaxy S4 has a 2600 mAh battery and the Galaxy Note 3 has a gigantic 3200 mAh battery.

One of the most common and obvious reason is using the phone while charging. Even though the power adapter should have enough power to charge the phone which is being used, sometimes it simply doesn’t have that much of power.

Especially when you are doing heavy tasks like gaming and multitasking. In this case, the battery drain is higher than the power of the charger and that’s why the battery level decreases instead of increasing.

Another reason is a bad or broken charger. Sometimes, after a few months or a year of use, a charger can stop working properly, especially if you charge your phone a lot. Also, a fake or chinese charger can also be responsible for slow charging on your Samsung Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4, Note 3 and older devices.

To summarize, don’t use the phone for heavy tasks like gaming while charging, replace an old charger and don’t use fake chargers.
