JAKARTA Fast charging is one of the features that smartphones must have today. Samsung presents this feature on the Galaxy S25 Series, but the features are problematic and don't work well.

As the name implies, this feature should make charging fast. If it used to be charging it could take two to three hours, now charging can run less than an hour. However, this feature is reportedly useless on the S25 Series.

Quoting from Android Police, a number of Galaxy S25 Plus and S25 Ultra users made complaints in the Samsung Community and Reddit. They reveal that charging is running slowly and their phone charging is often cut off.

This means that when charging is running, the battery was not filled. Worse yet, when they want to use the charger from the previous version of the device, namely the S24 Series, the fast charger still doesn't work. There is no solution to overcome this.

As a result, S25 Plus and S25 Ultra users have to fill in their devices for up to a few hours even though the 'Super 2.0 Charging' sign is visible on the screen. For some others, they will get connected and disconnected status continuously.

Although the majority of complaints come from the Galaxy S25 Plus and S25 Ultra, this battery problem also appears in the standard S25. When using the official 45W charger from Samsung or USB-C 5A cable, fast charging still doesn't run.

If not addressed by Samsung, this problem may be able to damage the phone battery. Recently, Samsung launched a software update for the Galaxy S25 series. In the release note, it is explained that they have increased charging.

However, it is unclear whether Samsung is also overcoming the problem of fast charging that doesn't want to run. For now, the best way to solve this problem is to charge it as usual without activating the fast charging feature.
