i was wondering the same, seems like too fragile to be gorilla glass, unless the fall is always very ganas  bruce.gif

Yep especially those privacy types one. Usually it is very low quality because good brands dont make this kind of stuff. Plus, the word "gorilla" is often misused in marketing.

The charging speed still slow, maybe around 10watts max drawn. They compared charging speed between iphone 11 and 11 pro with the 18watt charger, the 11 pro charges much faster. I personally have two chargers now, 5 watt and 12 watt. If no rush I will always use 5watt to reduce heat and the battery health percentage lasts much longer.

dont see watts. See whether the adapter supports Power Delivery or not. That PD matters in Iphone fast charge. 12Watt no PD, still a slow charge.
Thats a myth. I use fast charge since the day I bought, now already 1 year+ , battery health is still at 100%.

Battery still at 100% after 2 years.

Fast charging since day 1. Fast charging wont degrade your battery as opposed to high intensity gaming on phone. Vever game on my phone.

Wow! How do u charge ur phone? Over night charging with FC? Or 40 to 80 ? Mind to share here with us? Quite myth to me but good to hear that 100% after 2 years.
*
I dont practice overnight charging though. As i need only around 1 hour to fully charge the phone. usually around 20-30% . Not really fix.

That's pretty amazing. I'm guessing you don't charge it till 100% every time?

i charged till full and 100%. I just dont game on phone. I thinks thats the major battery killer.
Just want to highlight that fast charging doesnt degrade the battery.

I think this is quite true, my XR battery current capacity is 91% but it stays at this level very long, maybe about a year. When I got my phone in 2018, I did game on the phone till 2019, after that I use my tablet for gaming more and the battery stays at 91% till now. My phone battery capacity started to drop in the mid of 2019 or so.
*
Yeah. Many ppl use high intensive apps or play game while charging, and then blame on fast charge degrading their battery.

It should be new batch as apple still produces the XR. You may call them to check if is latest or old stock.
