Power Off Charging: Slight Speed Gain, Better Battery Health

• Charging a phone while off can result in slightly faster charging (5-15%) as background processes are inactive.
• When off, the phone's network, apps, and processor are inactive, allowing all charging energy to go directly to the battery.
• The speed difference is more apparent in older or slow-charging phones, with less impact on fast-charging devices.
• Charging speed automatically slows down after 80% for battery safety, regardless of whether the phone is on or off.
• Charging a phone while off can reduce battery strain, minimize overheating, and benefit overall battery health, particularly for older or problematic phones.

Why It Matters: Charging your phone off offers minor speed benefits and better battery health.
