Meaning you charge till 80% full, or at 80% max charging speed? just curious.

[–] CeeBee_Eh@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

80% full. It drastically helps extend battery life

Yep. It's the capacity.

Anyone can cap the charging speed by using a garbage $2 700mA charger from 2008.

Is this done manually , or there’s a system thing for it ?

In GrapheneOS, Settings -> Battery -> Charging Optimization.

Many phones support it. My old mid range Samsung galaxy phone from 2020 had it, as does my Pixel 9a.
