Why do they not give the time for 100% charge? Does the last 20% take far longer time? Always question why they report in this manner, because there is a reason that they report it as they do.

Because lithium charges to 80% as the industry standard to save cycle lifetimes you smart phone if this a good one should stop at 80% every time.
Also batteries slowdown again to.improve cycle life from 80 to 100%
Both my expensive Samsung do this by default and so does my tablets and laptops they all use NMC cells so 80% is the tl� end and you don’t below 20% either.

It takes long enough they don’t want to talk about it.

They did, you have to read more than the first line to see it though. This is from the article:
“Donut Lab then pushed the cell to even higher charging rates. At an 11C rate, the battery reached 80% charge in 4.5 minutes. It hit full capacity in just over seven minutes.”
