    Apple will have a USB-C connector (capable of fast charging tech), but will only support slow 5V charging (for most non-apple chargers?)…

      This is wrong. The iPhone must comply with Power Delivery at 100W and must use USB-C. It’s the EU reglementation. Now,the trick can be they don’t follow this outside the EU.

      Honestly, I find this preferable. I only charge at night and a battery that charges slowly lasts longer.

        It’s not preferable at all.

        They’re purposefully crippling a $1000+ product.

        You’re free to buy a slow charger for $8 on Amazon, there’s tons of solutions for that.

        There’s no solution for garbage hardware

        If you find that preferable, you’d love the Pixel then. You can turn it on and off as you please.

        Also if you’re using an official Apple USB-C charging cable on an iPhone, you can expect that it will charge at full speed (overnight or not).

        And if you’re at a friend’s house and they have any other Android phone on Earth, the fast charging cable that they use to resuscitate their own Android phone from 10% to 50% in 15 mins and will take your (much more pricey) iPhone 50 minutes.

        And the overpriced iPhone cable that charges those iPhones fast, will charge any Android phone fast.

        At the minimum, you should understand that you’re the one getting the shit end of the stick. Don’t explain how it’s so convenient for you to get the shit end of the stick, that’s what let’s manufacturers keep getting away with this anti-consumer bullshit.
