How long should battery charge take ?

I just returned my macbook pro doa and i swear the new one i have has a ridiculously long battery charge compared to my old one. I recall my old one being filled up reallllly quickly. I remember using the battery to red then plugging it in and the green light coming on shortly after. My current battery says it has 3.33 hours life remaining (ie, is 75-80% full), but charge says it has 55 mins left. Its been charging for sooo long and still not green. Does this seem normal ?

Yes, it's normal. Batteries take especially long to charge that last 20% of the way up to full.
