The mysterious disappearance of the battery charge limit feature

According to Reddit user JMPesce, the battery charging limit feature only appears in beta versions of Android 15 QPR1 (Quarterly Platform Release 1) instead of the standard Android 15. Android expert Mishaal Rahman also confirmed this information back in July.

QPR updates are typically minor patches and updates that are released after the official release of an Android version. For example, after Android 14 is released in October 2023, Android 14 QPR1 will be released in December 2023, followed by Android 14 QPR2 in March 2024.

This means that the battery charging limit feature will likely appear in December, when Android 15 QPR1 is released. Google Pixel users will have to wait a few more months to take advantage of this feature on their devices.

Benefits of battery charge limit feature

The battery charging limit is expected to help reduce battery deterioration - a common problem on smartphones after a long period of use. Especially with Google's Pixel phones, famous for their policy of supporting operating system and security updates for up to 7 years, this feature will become even more important in maintaining the device's performance over a long period of time.

Other improvements on Android 15

In addition to the charging limit feature, Google has also brought a series of new features and improvements in Android 15 to the Pixel line. To learn more about these changes, users can refer to the detailed articles and reviews of Android 15 right after this version is released.
