Welcome to Android Central! Theoretically, repeated fast-charging could reduce the overall battery lifespan due to the heat generated and the rate of charge. But realistically, that probably won't be noticeable within the typical 18-24 month lifecycle of the average phone. If you want to be safe, and if there's an option, it's reasonable to avoid rapid charging unless the situation calls for it.

Allright, thank you so much for answering

How warm does it gets is it to the point it is uncomfortable to hold? It's normal to get warm but if it gets so hot it hurts your hand that's a problem. Mine doesn't seem to get wsrm5, but my s7edge does get fairly warm.

I have fast charged all the time going back fifteen months. Not once has it gotten warm. For me, fast charging is the only way to go.

Unless it's an Amazon Fire Phone, in which case people might just think you're really excited about your phone.

No it just gets a little bit warm. I stopped using fast charging and it seems like it s not getting warm at all

Yup, it's completely normal. A little bit of warmth is totally fine! It's when it gets really hot that you should be concerned.
