This has been asked many times before (mostly for other phones) - and presumably all over the internet, with the same result.
There is no such thing as a “too fast charger” (unless something is very poorly constructed - to the point of not being CE compliant).
It is also really a misnomer to call the USB power supplies we have nowadays chargers - al the charging circuitry is in the device. Thus the “charger” is really not very closely involved in how the battery is charged.
If you want the charging to go faster - yes, you want whatever USB-PD mode the phone can handle as its maximum. But just to charge at all, anything goes.
And before some battery optimization enthusiast comes after me - the fastest charging speed can still still be “too fast” for optimal battery longevity. However, the phone should be very much in control of that - a slow charger is a very crude workaround.
I would also add for any “battery enthusiasts” to make terms with the fact that battery is a consumable and should be treated as such.
It’s fine if someone wants to make it his life’s mission for the battery to be 1% “healthier” after a decade, but using 40-50-60% of your phone’s capacity like it’s already heavily degraded and inconveniencing your life is not the solution. If anything I’d argue that if you are fine using a brand new phone like it has a degraded battery, you can at least enjoy it before it naturally and unavoidably reaches that state.
Batteries degrade even in shelf, they degrade as we use them, heat from using the phone does the same, and heat/cold from the environment does the same.
Everyone should do whatever they feel like, but please do not expect that a slow charged battery from 30 to 80% will have any meaningful difference compared to a regularly used battery after 5-10 years.
Batteries lasted more than 2 years before Apple introduced battery health and made everyone psychotic about batteries
Why is that? (As in exactly 45W).
(Sounds like the phone in question caps out at ~30W).
This is not an unqualified must - but just in order to take full advantage of charging speed.
9v max on phones is indeed common - but there are probably exceptions.
(And again, for the benefit of others, the capability to deliver a higher voltage will not harm anything - it just won’t be used).
Well, I have OnePlus 12 for 21 months, charging with 50-80W (depending on the phase of the moon or whatever their charger complying with).
There was 452 arithmetic cycles or 645 wear-calculated-cycles. Battery health is still 96%.
This is from Dimensity 7100 specs, because I don’t see official details from Jolla on this regard
Well, saving battery makes sense if the phone is sealed, which is not a case with Jolla Phone.
But even then – to not overheat and to not regularly charge from 90% to 100% is mostly enough.
I’m planning to use my phone like everything else and enjoy all the convinces I can get out of it. I have kids to babysit, a phone battery is not in my priorities!
And hey, if j1 battery still runs fine after such a huge “misuse” after 12 years, I think I’ll be fine
Ps. What really matters from my experience is to have parts available in the long run. The rest are not so important, excluding HW defects ofc.
