My xiaomi portable fast charger clearly charges my girlfriend’s iPhone faster than my high end android device. Doesn’t matter which port, which cable or which android phone. It starts by charging fast but as soon as I link her phone the fast charging speeds go straight to hers and mine just chargers very very slowly.

I’ve got the impression that this may be on purpose or at least has some clear explanation.

Any thoughts?

    Are both phones USB-C? If so there’s probably a difference in the advertised capabilities.

    Another option is that the BMS in your phone is just more careful than Apple’s.
