14 January 2020
It seems Samsung is trying to cut some corners to reach the alleged $1,000 starting price of its clamshell foldable.

Thats what flagships stand for. Sure SD855 is outdated because its a year old But for some reason SD660 aint called out for it despite being 2.5 years ıld

              Currently, the best is 65W. So 15W is quite ridiculous. 40 would be decent, 50 would be nice.

                AnonD-546724, 14 Jan 202015W charging is a joke in 2020Do you want the foldable at a reasonable price or are you just a spec maniac? Ah and also, this thing will ship with 3000mAh battery or so. 15W on 3000 is as good as your 25W on 4500

                  The price seems to be more than acceptable if the flexible glass screen materializes. They may as well not pair it with a charger though. Even buying a smartphone every 2 years these generic chargers pile up pretty quickly. Somebody buying this is bound to have a 15W charger lying around somewhere. They could market the exclusion of the charger as an environmentally friendly move.

                    Should I care about that charging rate? I started my day with 100% in the morning and still has around 30% left when I reached home at night, and it's not like I didn't do anything throughout the day.

                                      My Macbook Air can juice up with just 15 Watts. A piece of joke a weak ass arm processor need this much power ;p

                                      But in all seriousness.. If this phone can last 1 day straight (And i Bet it can), why bother with 15Watts.. when the day is done, just place it on a wireless charger, have it juice up 5w / 10w .. slowly 7 to 8 hours as you sleep. Save the battery cycle, prolong the battery health..
