Deep dives

Fast Charging and Battery Health

There is a common belief that fast charging can degrade battery health. However, a recent experiment by a YouTube channel, Nax, found that there was virtually no difference in battery health between an iPhone charged with a 5-watt charger and one charged with an 18-watt fast charger over the course of a year. The iPhone charged with the 5-watt charger showed 98% battery health, while the one charged with the fast charger showed 97% battery health. This suggests that fast charging does not significantly impact battery degradation.
