I deactivate the fast charging feature on most of my devices for that very reason, although thats not possible on every phone of course. I think people would do well to remember that most mobile devices have non user replaceable batteries these days, therefore looking after the battery is of more importance. Unlike Samsung Apple dont include fast chargers as standard, although knowing what they are like I doubt it was done for health and safety reasons! more like to save money! but at least you can deactivate the fast charge feature on most Samsung models: |

if you practice good battery management batteries should be able years without dropping off too much in capacity and performance.

I rarely let my phones go below 50 percent. on my m8 I replaced the USB board and the new one is utter shiite. it will charge very slowly with most cables and sometimes lose power while charging. at other times it sent huge amounts of power into the phone.  I have to watch the lover like a hawk so it doesn't flatten the battery. take note of the phones stated max charge current and the sessions max charge and the woeful minimum and actual charge levels

I think its ok to use the fast charge occasionally, but not all the time. my old Galaxy S5 is still on its original battery and it's still not that bad either! although obviously it doesnt have a fast charge feature...that was first introduced with the Note 4 as far as I can remember.

almost all android phones can charge at just under 2 amps if it's running a custom kernel with fast charging activated.
