iPhone 15 battery health toggle prevents charging past 80%
- brucethemoose2 3y agoOn the contrary, Accubattery's Android data suggests most battery wear happens after ~75%. That is based on hard data, looking at every charge cycle of the phone and the capacity after those charges. This is a good idea for anyone interested in long term usage.
- celticninja 3y agoMy electric car is like this, you charge it up to 80% most of the time, and only push it to 100% for particularly long journeys.im accepting the manufacturer's wisdom here because I can't see a reason for them to lie about the benefits they claim. Perhaps there is some shady nonsense around the range being marketed at the 100% level but the actual range, if you follow their instructions, will be less

Obviously the battery lasts the longest when it's being used almost not at all, but note the big difference between the green (85% to 25%) and the black (100% to 25%) lines.
