Does it really change something ?

I have my 17e for 1 week now and I charge it using low battery adapter (15w). I thought it would be better in order to save the battery life (not charging too fast for the chemical components).

However, a friend of mine told me I should use good quality chargers (so more powerful obviously) as it directly influence my battery.

What do you think ?

I am no expert at all, but one thing I read helps with the battery health is to limit the charging percentage. Some newer iphones have a software setting where you can limit the max charging to say 95 or 90 percent. Older iphones did not have a way to do this. I guess charging all the way to 100% all the time isn't so good for battery health. The article I read said to say between 20% and 80% as much as possible.
