Thanks Nick, this is valuable intel 🙂

This actually a lot better than my X98 Pro which actually drops instead of charge while connected to charger. I think I will consider this tablet.

Hi Loek, thanks for the reminder. I have tried all sorts of permutation with original charger and cable, and all the chargers and cables I have at home. Result is consistent: the charging never draw more than 1A.

Please share your charging current rating with us, and the equipment you use to charge and measure the current. Thanks!

Hi Nick, thanks! Patiently waiting for your results 🙂

There’s a lot of saying 3A, 2.5A, 2A charging. Did anyone use a usb meter to measure the actual current when charging?

I had the X98 Pro, and the charging was never over 1A even thought it is rated for 2A charging.

I’ve tried the original 2.5A charger, Samsung fast charger, and several other 2A chargers, it was never over 1A of current going in.

Hi Nick, thanks for your sharing!

Any experience on charging while the tablet is powered on?

Like if your tablet is left with 30%, and you charge it while using with light browsing and office work, how long does it take to charge to full?

Thanks again!

Good thread.

I’m interested in this tablet, main concern is charging time.

It doesn’t make sense to get a tablet which last 10 hours, but take equally long to charge.

Also doesn’t make sense to have a tablet that doesn’t charge when powered on.

Are there any satisfied owners which can feedback on the charging time of the tablet? Thanks!

10 hours battery life is quite impressive. But I am more concern with how long it takes to charge when it is powered on.

According to Chris’ review, it is “7% to 100% with the tablet powered off was around 3 hours 50 minutes” and “Powered on and charging from 7% you’re looking at close to 5 to 6 hours to fully charge the Hi12 when it’s in use”. This is actually quite okay.

BUT if it is actually “1% in 17min”, then it doesn’t make sense to get the Chuwi Hi12, better “Spend the extra money and get a quality product.” as Igor said.

Hi, can any owners of this Chuwi Hi12 confirm the charging time when the tablet is running?

I’m currently using the Teclast X98 Pro, it doesn’t charge and battery still keeps draining when it’s powered on, even if it is idle.

Planning to change to the Chuwi Hi12, only concern is on the charging.

 

Thanks!
