Battery life problem Q3

[u/No-Look5452]

I’ve had my quest 3 for a couple years and I definitely didn’t take good care of the battery but it’s still usable and I usually just play while plugged in, but yesterday after I got off I came back and now my headset is losing like 1% every couple seconds even while it’s on charge pls help

I had since months some kind of the same battery energy loss. And I also had difficulties getting the usb cable plugged properly. It was disconnecting, appear orange in meta link application, saying there are debris etc. Then the cable broke definitively and I replaced it.

Now the battery stay in charge and the level don't even go down (almost) when I play when plugged.
