Mcdodo and baseus look good in term of the cable built quality. However, they aren't MFI certified. Feel skeptical

Does fast charge kill battery health?  blink.gif

Batt will definitely be worn out quicker due to higher voltage and more heat produce. Unavoidable I would say as we r living in 2019 and most of us can not afford to wait for 2.5hours just to charge our phone using the stock charger during the day unless overnight charging that's why some use auto disconnect cable

Hi guys,

Need your opinion.

Am in a need of a new phone and currently deciding between these 2:

iPhone X 64gb (Rm3299) or iPhone XR 64gb (Rm3150)

Which one would be a better buy right now?
*
Put it side by side. Is the screen quality looks identical? Can u live with the lcd? If yes then xr

Bought XS last sept 2018. Just found that battery health capacity is 93% and when i play mobile legends at max settings my phone a bit warm.

Is it my battery is dying? I thought A12 is overkill for that game?

Which charger and cable do you use? Do u charge ur phone while playing games or overnight charging? My cousin with xs max play ragnarok all the time and even charge while playing. Using ori 5w adapter and cable. Bought last Nov. Until now stil 100percent

im using USB-C PD. some people might get confuse about the chime sound.

if u are using the old usb-c to lightning (thick) double chime will occur. don't worry its normal. there's nothing wrong with it.
-when u plug in your phone, it will chime and start with 5v. then it will chime again to charge with 9v if supported

i have both old and new USB-C to Lightning from Apple. The new ones chime only once because it directly charge using 9v.

Apple has changed the mechanism inside the cable including the pin connector.
*
Is there a new type c to lightning cable? Any different in term of the looks? I have been using the old one I guess. When connect to phone it used to beep twice but after one year I realised it no longer beep twice. Software update I suppose?

Go for the XR. At least then design of the phone will be used for few more generation while the design for 7 plus definitely look like design from previous decade

97% from Nov 18. Rarely overcharge, not sure if that helps or just placebo effect
