Same story for me. I charge exclusively via MagSafe (except in the car for CarPlay), and with the 80% limit on the 15 Pro I’m back to full power pretty quickly.
Limiting charging to only 80% doesn’t do that much. It about halves the battery degradation but that’ll only be a noticeable difference after 3+ years where most people either get their battery replaced or get a new phone anyways.
In my situation I work from home, so having a battery at 100% capacity is pretty meaningless. The 80% capacity limit also prevents my phone from burning up on the wireless charger, so that’s another plus.
It’s been a year now and I'm still at 100% battery health. Honestly, with my level of usage I think I could stretch this device for 5-6 years.
Oh, wow, in this case this is indeed the better tactic.
