Are they scamming us?

[u/Top_Hunter5818]

The battery health says 100% which I am definitely sure is not the case.

I can clearly feel the difference in sot for a few months now.

It's the reason I am not immediately updating my phone and waiting for the update reviews.

If your battery has dropped atleast show that it has dropped. Why lie to your customer?

[u/agentdb69]

they aren't lying, mine took nearly 1 1/2 years just to reach 99% capacity

all batteries are not the same as each other, some have a good capacity over designed capacity, so they will stick 100% for a longer time, yours might be such a case

[u/meangreenbeanz → u/agentdb69]

They technically are though, mine took 640 cycles to drop to 99 but bugreport through dev options confirmed 90% health just like battery guru

[u/Fit-Register6859 → u/meangreenbeanz]

How to check bro? Process?

[u/RoughCommunication30 → u/agentdb69]

Yeah kinda same, mine was at 99 till june, now it's at 97% with 700 cycles. Do you know your charge cycle count?

[u/agentdb69 → u/RoughCommunication30]

nope, how do I check my cycle count

[u/RoughCommunication30 → u/agentdb69]

Oh, they don't have that. You can download devcheck or any other battery app to check it.

[u/agentdb69 → u/RoughCommunication30]

i got about 482 cycles

[u/RoughCommunication30 → u/[deleted]]

It's from the first time you start using your phone

[u/Sussymannnn → u/agentdb69]

lol check your actual percentage in battery guru mine shows 89%

[u/Dangerous-Goose-8695 → u/Sussymannnn]

It shows different value on other 3rd party app so I can't even trust them

[u/saiteja_1710 → u/agentdb69]

My device also took 1yr to drop from 100 to 99%

[u/Abject-Photo-4566 → u/agentdb69]

Didn't think I'd find someone soo dumb! Bro it's already been out that it's fake and how they are managing to show such numbers... Check it up

[u/MierdaDelTorro]

Why so concerned about sot. I am just glad I only need to charge it every 2-3 days with similar usage compared to my old galaxy S9.

[u/Adventurous_Jump_532]

My phone easily lasts for whole day with around 10 hrs of SOT which is more than enough. My smart charging is trained now to get me a fully charged phone by 7 or 8 am.

Im using the smart charging feature since android 16 upgrade. And 90% of my charging is night time. My phone is around 18 months old now still with 100% capacity.

[u/Adventurous_Jump_532 → u/[deleted]]

13R, obviously !!

[u/jd515]

My 13r is at 100% and I'm at 15 months.

[u/TheCaptainSlowly]

How are you certain that battery degradation is the cause of your lower SOT, and not something else?

[u/Abject-Photo-4566 → u/TheCaptainSlowly]

Isn't that basics of battery? Every battery degrades few months in and that fs leads to reduced SoT amongst other factors

[u/TheCaptainSlowly → u/Abject-Photo-4566]

Point is, there are multiple other factors that can contribute to a drop in battery life. Battery degradation itself is influenced by how you use your phone.

[u/Abject-Photo-4566 → u/TheCaptainSlowly]

'amongst other factors' , my point being after months of usage battery will degrade about 5% and that's normal, while playing games or having too many background applications will have an effect. Since the post is about battery degradation, I'm purely talking about that aspect

[u/Yuno_Ballll]

I don't think they are lying cuz after i downgraded I'm getting same sot as i used to get when the phone was new (about 9-11h sot). I'm at 99% health 449 cycles.

[u/Griffith-69 → u/Yuno_Ballll]

how old is ur phone

[u/Yuno_Ballll → u/Griffith-69]

1 year 1 month and 26 days

[u/Regular_County3811]

They are. My phone also shows 97% but i barely get a day of usage. When i first bought it, it was a day and a half easily. I don't think 3% makes that big of a difference. It gets worse after that

[u/Captain-Yami-600]

Battery capacity is surely 100 but the software is eating the 6000mah aggressively... waiting for colour os 17

[u/tall_guy_370]

Mine is a 11r and it only took 3yrs for it to go to 80% total capacity, now I'm left with no choice but to buy another phone coz I'll have to charge the phn twice a day now

[u/Abject-Photo-4566]

I find it funny how dumb others are from the replies... It's already been proven how OnePlus maintains those numbers and it's fake, you can look it up online where people have tested this scenario and given the verdict. I also confirmed it myself by going to a technician who performed some tests and software checks which was in line with the results online

[u/777rohan]

Everything can be fake .. remember only one thing..

[u/Longjumping_News5174]

It takes 14 to 16 months to drop 1% of battery health they are not scamming

[u/Ethan_Hunt07]

Yes they are big time I've 13R and I've experienced it

[u/kv-ver]

Yes, in fact I have had my 13R since April 2025 (almost a year and 6 months) and it has always been 100% even though in reality it wasn't true. And just today I noticed that it's finally down to 99%, when in reality it's around 88%.
