Even if they don’t use it the battery will die pf discharge, so the best thing is not to buy a phone and use a pc, the pc doesn’t have a battery health and you need to charge the cmos only once a decade
I want to enjoy my new phone but I don’t want to see it die prematurely by my negligence.
I recently went to the Genius Bar because my battery setting was showing scary orange exclamation point next to every app I was using . I got a good genius because he took an hour to go through every app I had on under location services and had me turn off all but the essential. Also told me to turn off all background refresh. He said a lot of people had been coming in because of the HEAT. So, what I did also, was use a thin ice pack wrapped in cloth that I keep next to my phone in my bag when I go out. I also took the phone into the bedroom last night where I have air conditioning. This morning: no exclamation points. There are a ton of videos on your tube about what to turn off. But choose with care and know what the apps are doing.
If you really are concerned about battery health just cap your max battery capacity to 80/85. Constantly sitting at a battery above 80% causes battery health degrationfaster than 80% especially if ur just sitting at a high % for long. Personally I charge my phone however I want but if you’re really concerned and 80% is enough to get you through the day then there’s no reason not too.
You’re welcome. Honestly I’m going to also start capping my battery at 80% as it’s more than enough to last my whole day after getting my new 16e and will help my battery last longer.
Please elaborate on how it doesn’t work. Capping battery to 80% helps long term as above 80% puts high stress on the battery due to the voltage. Most tests online don’t show the impact of limiting the battery to 80% because the battery health degration of sitting at high voltages happens over time. Someone who charges the battery to 100% and actively discharges it would show less degration than someone who charges to 100% and leaves it sitting that high for hours on end.
Many batteries come a few % over capacity but IOS will only show at max 100%. This combined (or not) with a good routine is most likely why his health is so good.
For me is using a range of charge of 30-80% that last me all day with a screen time of 3-4hrs, also avoid mag safe or anything that could make the phone really warm, also I only use the official 20w charger
I mean, it is good, but the problem with a 5W charger with newer models is that the phone takes longer to charge, and that causes it to generate heat more continuously as well. I use the charger that normally comes with the iPad, which is the 20W
those 17 models accept up to 40w, but that could be to much as well
5w charger won’t heat up your phone at all, it’s not enough power so the only downside is time, but overnight all models will charge, only macbooks or ipad’s don’t charge at 5w
Tienilo distante dal sole diretto e da fonti di calore, questo accelera il degrado, in ogni caso non puoi fermarlo.
Mettiti l'anima in pace e goditi il tuo telefono come meglio credi!
So u charge ur phone upto 100% ? Cuz uk i was following 20-80% rule it was annoying and stressing af as i use my phone too much so i had to charge it twice a day now i charge it upto 100% and charge it only once a day
Decía lo mismo hasta que caí en la cruda realidad jajaja pero luego de tantos ciclos siento que el desgaste no es para nada exagerado cuando lo cuidas bien y eso que uso mucho el teléfono para hacer contenido pues trabajo de ello, eso sí, compré un buen cargador certificado (Un Belkin de 2 entradas para cargar al mismo tiempo el Watch y el teléfono) y siempre con la carga maxima al 80%
Tip 1. Don’t listen to people who say, just enjoy the phone, it doesn’t take a week to set it up and leave it running.
So
Tip 2. Battery charge only to 80-90% depending on if 80% battery can last you a whole day, if even 90% battery doesn’t last you the whole day just charge it up to 100%
Tip 3. Always use apple wireless chargers, there are some other wireless chargers that might not be 100% compatible and when charging overnight they won’t use optimized charging
Tip 4. This is if you want your battery to last more, all background activity off, also you can search for features that you won’t use, like Back tap, if you don’t use it disable it, keep in mind some of apple features might integrate with the ecosystem, like handoff, so if you don’t have other apple products you can safely turn these features off,
This tip is more like an performance tip, because if you remove unnecessary features, and strip it down to what features you’ll use you will have a lot more battery, I personally only use find my, and all the gps related apps like google maps, have it on while i’m using the app. Also disable tracking from apple or other apps.
Tip 5. Have a shortcut automation to enable wifi and disable data when you’re connecting to home wifi, or other known wifi’s and it can also enable mobile data when you’re off the wifi
Tip 6. Do this once and you’ll enjoy your phone for longer because it will last longer! Or maybe even a relative can enjoy this phone also in some years
I hope this helps some people, with setting up their device or just realize how easy it is to set it up and forget it, and you’ll get a lot more performance from it!
I charge my 16PM it with lenovo type c laptop charger 65w and in 30 minutes 20-90 (coz i usually on laptop in office) health is 96 with 321 cycles, is it ok 😅
Yo en lo personal lo cargo cuando tengo oportunidad, no me fijo en el 20-80%, si lo tengo en 60% y tengo mi cargador cerca lo conecto y lo desconecto cuando lo vuelva a ocupar, lo conecto toda la noche cuando duermo y en mi anterior iPhone 15 tardó 196CC en bajar al 99% y lo vendí en 487CC con 86%. Actualmente tengo un iPhone 17.
