I tested my Anker dual-USB charger, which I use together with an Eona lightning cable. In 30 minutes it charged my iPhone SE 2020 from 5% to 53%. Is that fast?

Btw, could fast charging really affect negatively battery life in the long term? Hm. According to this article https://www.americanbar.org/groups...better-fast-charge-slow-charge-my-smartphone/, “It is less damaging than actively using your phone while it charges. If slow charging means you will need to use it while charging, then you may be better off with fast charging.”
What is your take?

I also measured the charging current with an app ‎Ampere Battery Charging Check , see screenshot.

Other chargers I tested had lower values, around 1,092 mA, and even lower (819 mA) with a cheap one.

Yes, that's fast. It wouid normally take at least an hour using the old 5w charge cube.
