With the advancement of technology, the use of cell phones have become essential in people’s daily lives, and today it is as if they were part of our body. Everything we need is always in the palm of our hands, however, problems can arise when the devices run out of battery.
More and more companies are working to offer a fast charging to its users, however, this speed can be good and bad at the same time.
Fast charging: good or bad for the battery?
The turbo technology used in fast charging speeds up the charging process of your device, unlike regular chargers. In other words, instead of taking hours to complete the process, your devices can reach 100% battery in just a few minutes.
However, it is necessary to be aware of some fundamental details about this turbo technology.
Heating
This feature has been the subject of much discussion lately. Normally, while charging, the phone generates heat, but fast charging generates even more heat and makes the device much hotter. This can cause damage to the device, such as the battery or other internal parts.
Despite this, the vast majority of current cell phones have a temperature sensor system whose main function is to regulate heat to prevent the device from getting too hot.
Charge cycle
Another issue to be analyzed is that turbo charging can end up reducing battery life, as these devices are made of lithium ions and have a limited number of charge cycles (charging up to 100%).
The more times the charging cycle is completed, the more problems related to the cell phone battery occur. To avoid these problems, companies use adaptive charging features, preventing battery overcharging and extending the device’s useful life.
So, is it a problem?
No, especially when using an original charger of known origin. More and more companies are achieving success in preventing this problem from causing major impacts.
Technology is indispensable for most people and, despite concerns about heating and overloading devices, many people need this fast charging in their daily lives.
