![]() ![]() ![]() Still - single anecdotes are notoriously unreliable. It's a lot easier if it's automated, such as with some devices that can be configured to use less of the battery range. I suspect that with larger batteries they can increase the relative margins so that 100% is a little bit lower and 0% is a little bit higher.īut it's a huge pain to try and keep a battery within a range manually. There are larger devices (including those sold by Apple) that have a rated 1000 charge cycle to 80%, while there's nothing that would indicate that there's any better quality to the battery or charging system. Maybe you have experienced the same/ a similar issue as I? If yes then I’d be happy to hear about it!Īs a technical matter, of course limiting the charge range will improve rechargeable battery longevity. My Phone is running the latest version iOS 15.4.1 I already contacted Apple Support but even with my guarantee (with is going to end this month) I can’t get a battery replacement (i was thinking because of a maybe defective battery). I could never have had so many charging cycles in 2 days to make the percentage drop so fast. To me it is very weird to see 3% of maximum capacity drop in 2 days, as I know that it mostly depends on the charge cycles. BUT before yesterday when I checked, it showed 94%, yesterday i instantly jumped to 92% and today it dropped to 91%. 2 months ago m maximum capacity showed 96% which was very acceptable and understandable. As that wasn’t too drastic yet, I didn’t think too much about it but now it’s very very concerning. Of course I knew that the 100% are never going to stay forever ,obviously but I didn’t expect the maximum capacity to instantly drop to 98%. I had my maximum capacity at 100% for a very very long time as i barely needed to charge it (full charging cycle). Basically after I immediately got my phone i did everything to preserve my battery as soon as possible. A short backstory: I have been taking very good care of my phone since I got it, means that I always put my phone on low power mode, background activity is off and so on. I have an iPhone 12 which is almost one year old and I know that a Maximum Capacity drop is very normal. But I just wanted to ask, how reliable do you think the 20-80% rule actually is? It definitely helped extend my battery (for clarity, I bought this phone in October 2017, and it was at 88% on Februbefore being replaced), but do you think it's a reliable method to actually extend the battery? I'm only asking because it seems that after your battery loses 1%, it starts dropping drastically faster than it should be.īattery Maximum Capacity dropping too fast. Now I get it, I know my battery wouldn't stay at 100% forever, and I know that this is one of those areas that we don't have a concrete answer. My methods remained the same (keeping the battery between 20-80%, never letting it die, only letting it go over 80% once, and never under 20%), so what created the extra 2% decrease? however, since then, its dropped another 2% in just over a month (or 42 days ago). My battery had lasted 9 months before dropping a single percent. I'm not meaning to sound upset, because I'm not. She leaves her device plugged in every night, lets it die, and doesn't care about trying to extend the battery as long as she possibly can. I can also add that my wife bought an iPhone 7 Plus on March 21, 2019, and it is currently sitting at 92%. As of today (January 16, 2019), it now shows 97%.On December 5, 2019, it showed to be at 99%.To clarify again, on Februmy battery health stated 100% (as it was just replaced at an Apple store.).It stayed at 100% for quite some time, and the numbers I list below are only known because I check my battery health frequently and take screenshots of said screen. Afterwards, I purchased an external battery case to keep my battery as close to the 20-80% as I could, with only maybe 5 times (yes, that is an actual number) where I went over the 80% because I forgot to turn off my battery case. On February 2, 2019, my battery was replaced for my iPhone 6S. ![]() Moving forward, let's give you some detail: This is what Apple did with iOS 13 (or so I believe, I'm still rocking iOS 12). This is due to many reasons, but I'm not technical enough to explain these. The 20-80% rule implies if you keep your phone's battery always between 20-80%, it will drastically increase your phone battery's life span. ![]()
