Like many other newer offerings from Chinese OEMs, this phone also has a silicon carbon based battery instead of traditional Li-on.

Cycle life is probably fine if you avoid their super fast chargers that make the phone hot

Yes, in phones we can limit the damage by using slow chargers.

But when it gets hot, it's also a lot worse than with lithium. Not only do they degrade permanently, but they also loose more power while in the given operation.

Meaning while hot, your battery might burn 10% but only use 5% worth of power.

Some phones also gets hot when gaming or shooting pics or videos because of the CPU. If the thermals are manged poorly, it can permanently damage the battery as well, which we do not see in lithium.
