Super fast charging damaging your batteries hasn’t been true for a while. Charging standards like supervooc push the heat to the charger and charge two battery cells simultaneously. This reduces heat generation significantly than if you were to charge traditionally. My 15w samsung smartphone generates much more heat while charging compared to my 67w realme smartphone which stays cooler even while charging at quadruple of speeds.
Other smartphones slow the charging rate when the display is on. Phones which support supervooc can charge your phone at the same speed regardless of display being on or off.
My phone also has a smart charging feature where it can slow charge the battery at night & limit it to 80%. In the morning just before I remove the phone from the charger it will finish charging to 100%.
