Ok, so my Nexus 4 is charging incredibly slowly in the dock that I have hooked up to my computer. Is this what I should expect?

I'm playing podcasts through bluetooth but not much else is happening. The battery level has gone down since I got here today.

Responses:

Playing podcasts thru BT is going to chew up battery use as well which likely adds to the slowness. - Shaun Sep 25, 12:10 3
- It's my first day of use, so I'm not sure yet. - spamlet Sep 25, 12:12
- And it's not like the Nexus 4 gets great battery life anyway. (Though I do always use full brightness.) -- nm - Qale Sep 25, 12:12 1
  - I charge mine every night anyway, but as a light user, I usually have about 75-80% when bedtime calls. -- nm - Shaun Sep 25, 12:20

- This. Charging via USB port is not optimal at all. -- nm - Qale Sep 25, 12:05 4
  - Hmm, so I'll have to get a plug for it. - spamlet Sep 25, 12:06 2
    - If you weren't also using it to listen to podcasts it would charge fine. - Krusty Sep 25, 12:10 1
      - I also had Daydream enabled. I've disabled that and it seems to work better. -- nm - spamlet Sep 25, 12:48
  - And never use them during charging if that is your goal. -- nm - Spawn Sep 25, 12:06
