    Here’s my headline: Why obsessing over battery degradation is unhealthy and you should just do whatever is easiest for you

      “hey here is a way to increase the life of your battery by possibly 400%.”

      “OMG! Why are you obsessing over this!”

      Seriously how dare they try to help us and educate us!

        the 400% figure is extremely misleading and based on old assumptions and old battery tech.

        Also it you’re not keeping the phone for 20 years then it doesn’t make sense to calculate “total electrons” over the absolute entirety of the battery “life”.

      Agreed. If you’re a device maker and you haven’t considered the possibility of your users plugging in their devices for long periods of time in your design, then i feel that’s on you to improve your product.
