Along with technological developments, the world of smart phones is also developing. The smartphone world first met 100W in 2015 and was widely used in 2020. In 2021, this revolution continued with 120W fast charges on the Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus and Xiaomi Mix 4. Last July, OPPO introduced 125W supercharger technology. However, it seems that the developments will not be limited to this.
Details on the 150W fast charger will become clear in 2022
Fast charging technology continues to develop at full speed. Finally, an interesting claim came while following the revolutionary 125W fast charging technology with surprise. This claim came from Makul Sharma, who is famous for leaking technological advances in smartphones beforehand. Sharma, Digital Chat Station is on webbio. com, he announced that 150W fast charges will come soon. It has not yet been specified by which technology company this development took place.
In 2022, Realme GT 2 Pro, OPPO Find X4 series, OnePlus 10 Pro, OPPO N series and Reno 8 Pro models will have 125W fast charging. According to the company’s claim in the OnePlus 10 Pro presentation, 125W will charge phones 100 percent in 20 minutes. In this case, it is already curious how long the 150W will charge.
On the other hand, the negative effect of the battery is thought-provoking.
While shortening charging times is a positive development for users, there are concerns about battery health. Fast charging for batteries used in phones today greatly damages the life of the battery over time. Xiaomi and OPPO’s 120W and 125W fast chargers are predicted to have a 20 percent degradation within two years. Daniel Desjarlais, head of communications at Xiaomi, said:
In general, you’ll still have 80 percent battery health after 800 charge cycles for this level of charge with the batteries we tested. Now, that 20 percent sounds like ‘What!, am I losing 20 percent?’ But this is pretty standard across basically all charging technologies. 800 cycles will be roughly two years for most people. So this is pretty solid.
While there is a 20 percent loss for 125W, it is a matter of curiosity how much damage 150W chargers will cause on the batteries. Would you risk shortening the battery life in order to decrease the charging times of the phones? What are your views? Please share your comments with us.
