    Car charger that does the OnePlus specific fast charge thing. Cost me $12 delivered on AliExpress. Adds about 2% per minute to my phone battery. I love it so much.

    It also has a second port which does “normal” fast charge for any passengers.

      Wouldn’t that wear out the battery faster?

      Faster charging means more heat, which means more ware on the battery?

        I own a 4yr old xiaomi. Still great, 8gb RAM, yada, yada… 4 years charging at turbo (33w I think, there are 100w phones now, I think). Still a day+ charge. Good enough for me for a 4 year old phone

        I had to get a new battery for my OP6T after using it for over 5 years - exclusively charging it using the fast charger. I’m sure that I can get another 3 years out of this phone, at the very least.

        The battery + replacement service fee was around 40 USD.

        I don’t expect much more from the battery TBH.
