I can't believe some of the points Linus made against the Fairphone, especially given he's onboard with the same compromises for the Framework laptop. ๐Ÿคญ

My latest phone is a xiaomi note 12. It has 120 watt charging and I never knew I'd love this so much! 0 to 100% in 30 min. No need to plan charging any more. Just give it 10 min and you're good to go. Charging efficiency is maybe the greatest feature I look for now, besides connectivity

[โ€“] DoomBot5@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (3 children)

That's not efficiency, that's speed. I charging efficiency is your charger drawing 35W and your phone only getting charged with 30W.

[โ€“] ZMonster@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Honestly, in the best of circumstances, it would be closer to only 20 W getting to the phone by today's standards.

[โ€“] GbyBE@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 10 months ago

Yes and no, 120W charging wouldn't be possible if the electronics in the phone weren't quite efficient, because there would be too much heat generated.

You are probably right. It's efficient for me though. I get a lot more charge per minute wasted waiting for it to charge. But it may not be the scientific term of efficiency

Otherwise known as, "efficiency"

Ah, yes, "alternative facts."

Maybe say convenient instead.

[โ€“] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I think they meant to say it's time efficient for them, not that the phone is energy efficient.
