Lol um no they didn't.

So what they call “100%” is not actually 100%. Your phone will not charge your battery to full.

Someone else mentioned "80%" when you didnt understand the first comment, but they didn't say "all manufacturers stop at 80%" either.

You have got to be trolling at this point to be this obtuse

Your first paragraph pretty much agrees with the grandparent of this whole thread. What constitutes "max" is something that the battery manufacturer and the phone manufacturer come up with.

You said "some do this some don't". It doesn't make any sense at all. All manufacturers have to decide what 100% means. There is no some do some don't.

I'm not a battery engineer

Obviously not. Might as well stop at that then

I think you're leaning too much into the false assumption that "the max" is some final and definite thing.

Batteries aren't charged from "empty" to "max", there is no "max". They're charged from one voltage level to another which isn't in a percentage value. How do you think your phone knows what percentage a battery is at?

Exactly, which is neither a user setting or relatively new. Battery manufacturers have always had to decide what voltage is what state of charge (percent).

The user setting where you limit it to 80% is on top of what the previous commenter was describing

This is like spinal tap. Yeah but my phone charges to 110%. I don't think you understood what they're trying to say. Changing what 100% means isn't a setting or "relatively new"

Small electric planes already exist. But yeah not passenger planes or to go any useful distance for the foreseeable future

Damn fine formatting

And you can't even zoom into the images on mobile. Maybe it's harder than they think if they can't even pick their blogging site without bugs

In almost the same way that the earth being round is up for debate

My brain fried on what a “fake letter” was.

Fake : adjective Having a false or misleading appearance; fraudulent.

Either it was on purpose or you're not nearly smart enough to be arguing about grammar and definitions on the internet.

Also you didn't answer my question.
