Aaron from Zola Tech tackles the issue of whether phones should be charged with cases on, highlighting that it largely depends on environmental conditions and the type of charging method used. He points out that Apple recommends maintaining phone temperatures between 50°F to 95°F (10°C to 35°C) to optimize battery life. Demonstrating with an iPhone 10 and cases from Google and Apple, Aaron shares his charging habits, favoring wireless charging most of the time while occasionally using a 12-watt iPad charger. He shows his wireless fast charger setup and notes that his battery health remains at 100% despite overnight charging. Using a heat gun, he measures the phone's temperature during wireless charging, finding it reaches normal levels of around 95°F (35-36°C). Aaron advises removing cases to prevent excessive heat during wireless charging and encourages viewer interaction.
