I’m curious how long does your phone battery last these days?
It used to be that my early smartphones from years back would barely last a day and I’d be looking for a charger all the time. With my latest phone, on a reasonably heavy use day, I can go to bed with about 50 to 55% battery left. And last night, I barely used my phone at all and went to bed with like 65 to 70% battery left. And to be clear, it wasn’t sitting on a charger all day either. I got up, went to work and at the end of the night was left either enough battery to last be the entire weekend if I had continued the low usage.
Battery tech, and CPU and screen efficiency has advanced enough to where getting 2 days is not uncommon and I don’t care if it takes a couple of hours to recharge it at night. I also think much of the initial excitement of having a smartphone has died down so I’m not on it 24/7. Also having a tablet to offload some usage time helps as well.
So ultimately super fast chargers seem almost useless to me for most situations if they degrade the battery at all.
