The battery is a core component of your phone, directly affecting its battery life and performance. As the battery ages, its capacity decreases, leading to shorter battery life, slower performance, and a worse overall user experience.
Basic Battery Lifespan
The average battery lifespan is 300 to 500 charge cycles. A charge cycle refers to charging from 0% to 100% and back again. Battery health is assessed by its maximum capacity—when it drops, so does your battery life.
Factors Affecting Battery Health
- Temperature: Extreme temperatures accelerate aging.
- Overcharging and Deep Discharging: Keeping your battery at 100% or letting it drain to 0% too often harms it.
- Frequent Fast Charging: Fast charging can wear down the battery faster.
Common Battery Issues
- Rapid Battery Drain
- Slow or Incomplete Charging
- Battery Swelling
- Excessive Heating
- Sudden Shutdowns
When to Replace the Battery
- Battery capacity falls below 80%.
- Frequent battery-related issues like rapid draining or slow charging.
- Battery swelling or visible damage.
