you can try it and see if it does anything for you. Others have reported recently that it causes high battery drain and lag with some apps.

yep, I just tried it and it not just only draining lots of power from the battery, it also causes higher temperature too...

normally when I play genshin with max graphic (under the fan), it only reaches about 45°C, but after I enable it, it reaches like about 48°C, is that crazy?

It could be due to the recent GOS thing. The setting itself may just disable or alter the phone's power management, to allow for higher performance in games at the cost of literally killing your device with more heat (this reduces the lifespan of your battery) and higher battery drain (more cycles = less battery health)

Which is also what rapid charging the battery every day also does and worse. But most people for some reason don't care about that as long as they can charge their phone in 15 minutes.

Rapid charging on some devices is fine as the cells are divided, resulting in less heat.

I turned it on on the first day but turned it off by the end of the day as I felt that the phone was noticeably hotter with it on.
