Not really. Current phone batteries has limited life cycles based on full charge and discharge, that's why it's recommended to not go to 0% or 100% if you want to prolong the life of the battery. The speed doesn't really impact the health, assuming the phone has a way to dissipate the heat generated.
Yeah that’s a big assumption. My phone gets hot charging at 20w, don’t you think there will be heat dissipation issues at those speeds?
Chemistry has improved, but even a Tesla will not let you super charge all the time- I’d need to see some real data before I believe that a battery charged 100 times fast has exactly the same health as one charged 100x slow.
OnePlus mitigates a bunch with tech separating the battery into multiple batteries. I'm charging at 100w rn, but it's 2 cells, each charging at 50w. It barely gets warm. -no fap.
