Not sure if it’s been posted yet but has anyone else noticed a really slow charge on their iPhone X? Figured it might be my anker cable but then I switched to the Apple cable and it’s no better.

12W apple charger also gave me slow charge. Thought charger gone bad changed to another 12W but seems charging is slow.
 
I was going to post this but I didn’t want to be negative. I did notice mine charges slow. At least I’m not the only one.
 
I feel like mine is as well, but I'm going to old off on passing judgement. I had it for several hours now and I don't think I've put it down for more than 5 minutes. I'm going to let it charge overnight and see how my battery life is tomorrow. Then I'll see how that next full recharge goes in terms of speed.
 
Had around 70% charge yesterday and used my 12w iPad charger. Went to 100 in no time. Today I knocked it down to 47% it’s been plugged in for a few hours (and been used as well) but it is now at 52%. Running iOS 11.1
 
Yes. Greedy just like most billion dollar companies. They should of also bundled the AirPods with a X. Since they didn’t and if I want these other items. I have to spend money to get them. The only way they would change. Would be if enough people chose to purchase other devices. I’m not ready to take that step yet. I’m willing to pay a little more to get what I want.

I don’t think they should pair AirPods. But I do think they should include a fast charger considering literally every other manufacturer includes a fast charger if their phone supports it.

I haven't noticed. But then again I always use a 12w charger to charge my iphones.

[doublepost=1510085213][/doublepost]Yes I just opened mines yesterday and noticed that it charges slowly whether plugged in or on the charging pad.
 
My X started to charge slow but it has gotten better, even wirelessly. It must have done its necessary indexing, etc. so I ask you to give it a day or two and it will get better.

yes its very slow. took me 4 hours + 10%-50% wireless and 50%-100% with an anker charger. I think my ipad charger took 2 hours or 2.5.

Omg mine charges so slow!!!!
 
Yea mine is charging slow as well!

I bought that Lil black wireless charger Apple sells and thought it was that at first, but last night I used the lightning cable and it’s still slow as a snail when charging. IMO Apple should have included a fast charger like Samsung does with the S8. For a phone of this price that would have been a nice addition.
 
It’s painfully slow. And the battery life isn’t that impressive to be honest. Not much better than my 7 plus.
 
Have you finally made your decision?

I got the X yesterday. I’m going to give it a couple days before I decide for sure, but I’m leaning towards either keeping my 7 plus and returning this one or exchanging this one for the 8 plus.

totally understandable.
 
Painfully slow with my 8 plus. 1% gain in 5 hours. And it makes my phone very warm.

Really?! 1% in 5 hours? Were you using it during that time? I got a dud charger with my X. It randomly charges but mostly I have to make sure it’s twisted just right or it won’t. Could that be the issue with yours too?
