charge rate

Battery refill pace

Charge rate is how quickly a battery receives energy during charging, typically expressed as a multiple of battery capacity (C-rate) or in watts.

A higher charge rate means faster charging but may generate more heat or reduce battery lifespan: The phone supports a charge rate of 65 watts.

Charging at a 2C rate fills the battery in thirty minutes.
