On: Apple's 80% charging limit for iPhone: How much di...

[lxgr]

I’m at 89% health on a 15 Pro after a year of 80% limited charging – which is less than what my 13 Pro ended up with after a year of optimized charging. I wonder if this is due to regular deeper discharges (I often end the day on 5% or less).

Seems like it’s not worth the hassle at all at least for me.

Just to add a data point: my iPhone 12 Pro Max stands at 82% with optimised charging after 4 years.

Not bad at all.

I suspect it would work for me as I rarely dip below 50%. My current phone doesn't support it though.

89% health with 100% charge limit and “optimize battery charging” enabled.

97% battery on 15 Pro Max after one year of use (september 2023).

80% limiter has always been active.

vanilla 15 bought on launch day, 238 cycles, 98% condition.

I also set it to 100% when I know I won't be at my desk for longer than normal (i.e. trips).

There's always a variance in batteries, but yeah, deep discharges like that cause a lot of wear.
