TLDW; No

Basically the video is testing phones with varying charging speeds and how much battery degrades after 500 charging cycles. Also, the affects on performance after battery degradation at 5:37

Timestamps of some tests:

  • Test results for different charging speeds at 3:06
  • Storing batteries at 1%, 50%, 100% at 3:43
  • Battery performance at 4:42

After 6 mins he talks about why the tests took 2yrs and how they did it 3 times.

    He did test Iqoo phones charging at 120W. And the wear was less than slow charging. So, that should answer your question. But, he did ask to comment any other tests people wanted.

    You can drop one on this video if you want to.
