Your phone is now Nintendo property thus it runs on inferior hardware.

Different voltage?

My phone does that too if it's charged with wrong charger. But it recover after you unplug it and using the phone until some battery used.

I think it's cus the switch uses something that looks like USB-C but isn't actually USB-C
I've been lucky so far, but I've heard about people having problems w/ their switch after using a standard phone charger

The Switch USB-C is out of spec because Nintendo is the Apple of the video game industry when it comes to being draconian contrarian control freaks. You can fuck up a Switch if you charge it with a real USB-C charger if memory serves.

I had to get a new phone, got a Pixel 8 Pro. Traded in my Pixel 6A and got a $220 credit back so I guess alls well that ends well. Now I know not to use their weird proprietary chargers on anything but the Switch

I'm not sure about that. I've definitely used my phone's USB-C chargers on my Switch several times without any issues. Never used my Switch charger on my phone though.

I used my original Switch charger for my Galaxy S8+ and never had issues with the phone. The charger eventually stopped working, but I assumed that was because of the cord. I used old off-brand usb-c chargers for my MacBook for my Switch and never had issues with my Switch either.

I fucked up my USB-C port on my switch before using a different charger. I had an external battery and a USB-C adaptor THAT I RESEARCHED SHOULD WORK WITH THE SWITCH. And on my trip to France after a couple of times of using it. Switch was fine, I get home put it into the dock and I get no video out or anything. I put in friend's switch in, there's video out from the dock. Switch works in hand held and charges but video out is just dead on it. Sent it back to nintendo got it fixed or new one or whatever and I NEVER use anything else other than the nintendo switch charge cable and USB-C power cable to charge my switch. NOTHING ELSE.

Didn't want to make that fuck up again. Insane that this problem exists though.

It may be the other way around where the Switch charger will fuck up a phone.

This would be highly illegal. As in, against CE, CSA, all the regulations. By way of fire hazard. Electronics have hardware to ensure you cannot physically damage something sith a different charger. Now, if nintendo has a software issue, hey. But it wont actually damage the unit.

As I said I may be mixing it up, but Im fairly sure the Switch USB-C or charger runs on a different voltage or something thats out of spec.
