Google is currently offering its Pixel devices with a few innovations and in some cases there are even more changes that are not mentioned. This also applies to the new 80 percent limit on the Pixel battery, as this feature brings with it another special feature that was previously unknown.
Reason: How does Google manage to charge the battery to 80 percent and keep the battery at this level? A common method is to instantly re-supply the battery with energy as soon as it is slightly discharged. But Google takes a different approach.
Bypass charging is new. The battery is charged to 80 percent, but even after that the power adapter on the Pixel phone bypasses the battery.
A big advantage is that there is less load on the battery when the phone is charged and still connected to power for long periods of time Also, the smartphone is kept cool when it is fully charged and still connected to the power supply.
Google has not yet named any device that supports this feature as Google has not officially confirmed or announced it yet. This innovation was discovered Android AuthorityA few charging tests confirmed the first suspicions.
However, this bypass charging is only used by the Pixel if the user has enabled the 80% limit feature, available from Android 15 QPR! Available in the “Adaptive Charging” section of the Pixel device’s system settings.
