Does any other phone charge as fast or faster than the Note 4?

Samsung claims zero to 50% in around 30min. I actually think it might be faster. I haven't officially timed it. But I went from 8% to 76% in what seemed like only 20min. Has anyone timed their charge from a low battery level?

I bet I can charge a phone from 0% to 100% in less than 10 minutes. Just need a 10amp charger and some liquid nitrogen to keep the battery from setting itself in flames. ;)

Haven't officially timed it but my G3 seems to go from 0-50% in around 35 minutes if I remember - that's with the actual LG charger.

Will test it out properly.

Per Anandtech's review nothing beats the Note 4 when it comes to charge times.

I think they didnt use the supplied fast charger for Note 4. 1.7 = 104mins is too long. My Note charge from 2% to 100% in around 1 hr 15minutes = 75minutes using samsung fast charger.
