Default How long does your Butterfly / Droid DNA take to full charge?

Is it just me or the HTC Butterfly takes a very long time to full charge? When I am using the HTC supplied AC adapter (1A output), it takes like 5-6 hours from zero to full. I tried using the Samsung 2A AC adapter and it took like 3 hours or so. My HTC 8X takes only like 3 hours on the 1A AC adapter, but they have almost the same battery capacity.

5-6 hours is too much unless you are actually using the phone heavily while its being charged

It does take quite a while. I haven't timed it but probably 3-4 hours going from 0% to full charge. The last 5% going from 95-100% takes forever.

It uses Li-polymer battery, it's normal that the last few percent to charge slower to avoid overcharging.

FYI, Li-Po battery will blow up/caught fire if overcharged.
