You can't do nothing against my preference and personal belief in those so called lab testings for ultra fast chargings. The same as I can't persuade you that even non-Chinese phones have a value. But that wasn't the subject of the conversation and we both know it so let's not come back to that. I was just informing you because you obviously care only for things that catters your beloved Chinese brands and ignoring or calling uselles every damn thing what "western" brands are using. That's sad my dude, but do what ever makes you happy. Icm not taking your comments seriously. You are just a non payed Chinese shill and we all know it. Now... Let's get back why did I even reply you on that ignorant comment of yours because that's the thing I wanted you aknowledge because we have it for years. I am not ashamed to say I don't know everything and I am still learning and trying my best to be as objective as I can, because I don't give a fu*k for politics and world dominance like you. I only want people to have as many choices as they can from multiple brands. Not just Chinese. Is that so hard to understand? That people are different and wanting and believing in different things?

              You said batteries are on constant charge over night and that's far worse then charging in 10 minutes from 0 to 100. That's not true because of that adaptive charging which you obviously ignoring because you are trying too hard to make your beloved Chinese phones a better deal then non-Chinese. Why can't you be objective for once? Know your facts dude. That's all.

              Maaan...

I think that if your are going to charge your phone overnight, maybe best to slow it down or have your phone hold a charge and close to your waking up time have it fill up to 100%, still reducing heat. But that also means that yes Asus also allows fast charging since they have that option for so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                  Since time is money faster is always better. Who needs to charge his phone for whole night if a halfbaked xiaomi can do that in 5-10 minutes without harming the battery.

I had it on my Xperia XZ back in 2016. Meaning when you go to sleep and put your phone on a charger, the phone is charging slowly or not charging at all, but it will be full a moment before your morning alarm rings, so you have a full battery because of the bult in software whose taking care that battery don't overcharge during those 6-8 hours of our sleeping time.

                    Did you know about that? Looking at your comments it seems you didn't have a clue about this thing exists for years and that it became a standard.

                    Take care, maaan.

                      joe nodden, 24 Jan 2023Lmao. As expected of a terrible Exynos equipped phone. I also compared a Galaxy A33 to my good old secondary phone, the ZTE Axon 7 (soon to be 7 years old) just for the giggles you know. The A33 is slower to even open the lock screen let alone do any tasks. lol

                                When it comes to batteries, I fully recommend buying an android phone because the battery replacement is not awfully expensive on those

                                OnePlus recently even did free replacements for their older models. Such a customer friendly company and on other hand there is apple that will charge from $70 to $100 for the same

Oh well, since fast charging doesn't kill the batteries I think it's a no-brainer really. You get home, plug it in for like 10 minutes and that's it, your phone is ready for the next day.

Slow charging (5-10W) is typically ideal and puts the least heat and strain on the battery cell. I have been charging my devices overnight for years and I usually lose 1-2% of battery health on a yearly basis, which is excellent.

                                      sa11oum, 24 Jan 2023The point is that human beings sleep, typically, so you can... moreI already said it in one of my other comments, I used to charge my phones overnight and their batteries are horrible, my vivo however is fine, with 120W fast charging.

                                      The point is. Fast. Charging. Doesn't. Kill. Your. Battery.
