The ability to limit the charge that your Pixel has an issue; the 80% limit does not stay activated if your phone is powered off.

So, the OS doesn’t do anything when not running?
Is the next article going to be about not being able to charge your phone from the wall if there’s a blackout?
(Doing it when off is a lower level fix than what most updates can provide, I believe, and very device dependent)
It’s kind of surprising because I assumed it set a firmware flag on the charging IC, so it would persist even without the phone OS running.
I’m pretty sure this is how Samsung phones do it.
Laptops, too.
Cheaper charging IC? (Maybe it needs flash to start up that way and flash costs money)
