[iMore Question]

I have been using 5s for 2 years now and it took around 100 minutes to charge completely.I recently bought 6s and it takes around 2.5 hours from 0-100.Also i noticed it takes a lot of time between 90%-100%.Is it normal, does it take so long on the newer devices?
PS-I am using genuine apple charger and wire i received with the phone.

My iPhone 6 charges in about one hour and 20-30 mins max. But I don't usually let my phone's battery go below 35%.

2½ hours is about right.

On a normal charge on my 6 w/ 64gb from 0-5 to full charge maybe an hour and that is it.

If possible, use your iPad charger instead. It shortens charge time by about 25%.

Maybe it will take much time to charge completely for the first time.
I never count charging time.

Bigger battery = Longer charge time. The iPhone 6s can draw 2amp of current so if you buy a 2amp charger it will charge much faster.

I thought the battery in the 6S was smaller than the 6. I too feel like it takes forever to charge my 6S up.

You are correct but the OP is comparing his charge time to the iPhone 5s which has a smaller battery than both the 6 and 6s.

Put your phone in airplane mode and it will charge faster.

And then drain faster catching up with everything that was missed in airplane mode lol.

You should try charging a 6(s) Plus. It's painfully slow. It also drains really slow, so I accept the shortcoming. An iPhone with fast charging would be incredible.
