Super fast charging damaging your batteries hasn’t been true for a while. Charging standards like supervooc push the heat to the charger and charge two battery cells simultaneously. This reduces heat generation significantly than if you were to charge traditionally. My 15w samsung smartphone generates much more heat while charging compared to my 67w realme smartphone which stays cooler even while charging at quadruple of speeds.
Other smartphones slow the charging rate when the display is on. Phones which support supervooc can charge your phone at the same speed regardless of display being on or off.
My phone also has a smart charging feature where it can slow charge the battery at night & limit it to 80%. In the morning just before I remove the phone from the charger it will finish charging to 100%.
I quite enjoyed reading their in-depth tech coverage. Especially, in the early days when theyvcovered smartphones. There won’t be a 2nd anandtech in history for a long time to come.
They should release their articles as a torrent to conserve the long history of anandtech.
TL;DR
-
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 users are reporting paint peeling issues just weeks after the phone’s release.
-
Samsung attributes the problem to third-party chargers causing leakage currents, advising users to stick with official Samsung chargers.
-
The explanation has drawn comparisons to Apple’s infamous “you’re holding it wrong” moment.
Yeah, I noticed this yesterday when I saw 3 apps being downloaded and updated simultaneously.
One downside I noticed was play store became too slow to do anything else and super glitchy – like pressing the update details button didn’t do anything. The animation was slowed down and I couldn’t load anything else in a jiffy.
When it finally started to accept user inputs pressing back it was existing the updates page and still being on the updates page. Apparently, it opened the updates view multiple times I had to close the play store app and re-open to fix the issue.
So, while it can do simultaneously updates its not glitch free and has bugs in general.
