    Are you having issues with excessive charging time, or just trying to find out in general? May help you get a better answer.
    Another factor is are you starting from empty to full?

    It surprisingly takes pretty long time. Approximately 5 hours. I would suggest to give it charge Overnight.

    I also think so that the PlayBook charger will create a good difference. Will try once I reach home.

    I've even used the PlayBook rapid charger for my Z30 and it charged the phone full in about an hour I think.

    Use the BlackBerry premium charger or PlayBook charger. Same thing.

    A new BB Z3 ( out of the box yet ), how would you recommend charging it? A full discharge and later charge 100%?? OR
    charge 100% and then use??

    Just charge it. As much as possible, don't let it drain to 0% except if you're having problems with your battery meter.

    I don't think a phone takes 5-8 hours to fully charged. My z30 charges in about 2 or so I'd say.
