Re: Charge speed vs battery life

In order to extend the life of the battery, some people say that it is
best to charge it at a slow speed.
Others say that quick charge is fine as long as the battery does not
become too hot.
Yet others claim that quick charge is even _better_, because the charge
time is shorter.
 I always thought that a charge current of about 1000 mA is most ideal,
but AccuBattery shows this speed as very low and in red, as if it is bad.
 I saw a review of smartphones where a charge time of 1.5 hours was called
'long', whereas I always considered 2.5 hours as normal.
 Does anyone know what the most ideal charge speed would be?

Charging speed is limited by the electronics. Newer phones can charge from 20% to 80% in roughly 30-45 minutes given the charger has the necessary power output.
Avoid wireless charging at that speed. The battery becomes too hot.
