Is my screen on time ok?

[Mustang02]

Quick Charging slows down around 90% to top off the batteries to 100%. That time is normal.

Is it really that bad to let the phone go to 1% once in awhile??

 

[TuBitMittens]

And lets say I do charge it from that amount or around 10% or so, how much on estimate on quickcharge should it say I have left till its fully charged?

Yes, from everything I have read and the numerous posts here about batteries.

Absolutely! Never let your battery dip below 10% in order to get maximum battery life. It's always best to throw it on the charger between 30-50% on average, to top it off. But if you can't do that, at least try to plug it in between 10-20%. Anything less than that will reduce your battery life significantly over time.

What about having it charged all night, can that also damage it or is that a myth..

No, that's fine. Your device has safeguards in place to prevent it from overcharging.

Who told you quick charge only works when the screen is off? Unless this is an S7 ONLY feature, that shouldn't be the case. Both our S5's & the wife's new Note 7 charge quickly while they are on and/or being used.
As mentioned, you can't gauge your SOT or overall battery life for that matter, off what others are posting online. We all use our devices differently, regardless of the similarity of apps being used.
I would suggest backing up all of your contacts, text messages, pertinent files/photos and do a factory data reset to see if that resolves your problem.

Idk I saw that on androidcentral forums and the phone seems to take much longer to charge while I'm using it. How long on average is the phone supposed to take to fully charge with quick charge on???

 

[TuBitMittens]

Like I'm estimating at least 127 seconds per percentage or something like that. Maybe I'm bad to judge.

I think each phone is different and it depends on what is running in the background, if you are using it, etc. I don't think there is a "one size fits all" answer. Are you happy with your phone and it's performance?

What I'm seeing right now. Let me know if this looks normal, maybe it's just me

 

[Sajo]

Yes, that looks normal. As Mustang mentioned recently. Is your phone doing what "you" expect it to do? Not what others claim.

Yes, this thing runs better than my pc for the most part. everything is great, it's just the battery stuff I was concerned with. I'm feeling better about the battery life based on what everyone is saying and I do see a difference a bit after getting a battery replacement from a samsung store. I guess my main concern is the charge time now.

Aside from the battery life that was questionable and the suspected slower charge time, yes.

I'd assume using your phone while it's charging should naturally slow it down, but does anyone know for a fact how that works when fast charging and s7?
