iPhone 5s slow charging

I have used my iPhone 5s in 3 weeks now, but can it be right that it should be almost 3-4 hours to fully charge the battery, is this normal - my iPhone 5 was under an hour to charge, so it surprised me..


Is there something wrong with my new iPhone?

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.4

It's probably a something to do with temperature protection...


Are you using Apple official chargers/cables?


It won't hurt to call Apple/take it to the Genius Bar and see what's up.

I use the original charger, but the problem also occurs when using other chargers (original). I live in Denmark, we have no official Apple Store, so unfortunately I can not take it to Genius Bar, my iPhone is purchased in Hamburg Germany, 400 km. away, but i will call Apple Care monday and present them to the problem, thanks for reply..

Solution Iphone batter slow charge SOLUTION

Just go to settings > reset > 'reset all settings'

This is the solution to get the Iphone back to normal (quick) charging!! 100% worked for me after anoying 2 weeks of figuring out WHY it charged sooo slow! You won't lose data/contacts. Only WiFi passwords and some basic settings, but this is not a big deal compare to the slow charge problem! Success!!
