     @kaia well you actually should only use chargers with the same voltage *and* current ratings, otherwise it may indeed break the device or the charger

     @kaia the sweetness of usb power delivery. my chinese phone charges with only 10w rate when using a usb-c power delivery compliant charger. it's capable of receiving 80w, just that it has to be its own charger.

     @pesekcuy @kaia I had a phone that was on the VOOC standard and I hated that. oneplus phones are made by OPPO and they only work with VOOC cables and bricks
