Summary
For many users in the US, Android smartphones come with large batteries but slow charging speeds
However, the author argues for choosing fast charging over battery capacity in a new smartphone
It offers more convenience and reduces anxiety about battery life
Charging to 80% rather than 100% can help preserve the battery’s longevity
The author personally charges their smartphone to 80% and avoids anxiety about the battery percentage
Fast charging fits better into everyday routines, where users may not have long to charge their phones overnight or may not be near a charger frequently throughout the day
