    Why? If anything do the opposite so battery life feels the same over time.

    It will be voluntary for any customers using previously launched devices."

    So it’s mandatory for the 9a and later devices? WTF google.

        Is there any data showing the real world effects of high speed (>60W) charging compared to the normal Samsung/Google approach after multiple years?

        I’ve always limited my charges to 80% but I’ve heard the argument that phones that charge quickly stay warm for a shorter period of time which lessens the potential negative impact of that kind of charging.
