Honestly, I find this preferable. I only charge at night and a battery that charges slowly lasts longer.
It's not preferable at all.
They're purposefully crippling a $1000+ product.
You're free to buy a slow charger for $8 on Amazon, there's tons of solutions for that.
There's no solution for garbage hardware
Though i guess you should be used to that already if you buy apple shit
Most of Apple users I've met master the art of turning Apple's crap decisions into features and advantages over the competition.
I lost all faith in those folks being reasonable.
My pixel does this
Are you sure you don't already have something like this? My android is a couple years old, but has always let me charge to only 85%
That's unfortunate, I guess. I mean, even though I do have my phone set to only charge up to 85%, I don't really know if this is battery protective or not.
Is it?
I just enabled the option because the description of the feature claimed it to be. I haven't researched this at all
Yeah, or just a slow charger next to bed? Who doesn't have a charter next to bed? Especially a slow one costs nothing.
Definitely wouldn't want to give up PD speeds to top up during the day. Well, I would give them up if I didn't have to top up during the day.
Wait, you can set phones to charge slowly?
You can even set the cable!
If you find that preferable, you'd love the Pixel then. You can turn it on and off as you please.

Also if you're using an official Apple USB-C charging cable on an iPhone, you can expect that it will charge at full speed (overnight or not).
And if you're at a friend's house and they have any other Android phone on Earth, the fast charging cable that they use to resuscitate their own Android phone from 10% to 50% in 15 mins and will take your (much more pricey) iPhone 50 minutes.
And the overpriced iPhone cable that charges those iPhones fast, will charge any Android phone fast.
At the minimum, you should understand that you're the one getting the shit end of the stick. Don't explain how it's so convenient for you to get the shit end of the stick, that's what let's manufacturers keep getting away with this anti-consumer bullshit.
