The latest Google Pixel update includes a surprise launch of Android 15’s best battery feature

The latest Android updates are rolling out to Google Pixel devices, and while the leaked details shared by Verizon talked about the bug fixes and security improvements, the patches are said to offer one thing that the leak missed: the inclusion of a long-awaited battery feature: charging limits.

Instead of having to completely fill your phone’s battery every time you plug it in, this Android 15 tool allows your device to limit charging once it reaches 80%. The upside to this is that overcharging your phone can be detrimental to the health of the battery, causing it to dry out more quickly over time. Stopping charging early means your phone at 80% may last much longer than an identical device charged to 100% every night.
