I charge all my shit to 100% with a fast charger, always have, and it all works great.

This "issue" is severely overblown.

[–] RazorsLedge 4 points 7 months ago

Same, agreed. To me it's a bizarre topic for people to have an opinion on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

But how often do you replace your stuff?

[–] scottywh 1 points 7 months ago

Far less frequently than most.

I'm rocking a Surface Pro 4 as my daily driver PC, for example.

its an easy way to obsess over something that will make at most a tiny marginal difference.

"whoa your phone lasts 4% more than mine because you obsessively babysat every charge session to perfection in the past 5 years? good one champ, I was instead enjoying my life"
