Google’s latest Pixel update allows you to limit battery charging to 80%, and that seems to come with the side effect of being able to use “bypass” charging.
Google has rolled out a new feature for Pixel phones that lets users bypass charging when the battery limit is set to 80%. This update was included in a recent Pixel Feature Drop.
Google has confirmed that Pixel phones with the new 80% charge limit support bypass charging. When 80% charge is detected, the battery stops charging, but current is still used to power the handset.
