The right way to charge the battery is never to let it drop below 50%. The worst is really really to let it die unless you have no choice.

Battery cycles are not counted per charge but on the basis on ‘how many 100% cycles there are’. Not too sure how to explain this but it’s something like that

I keep my battery at 100% as much as possible. Charge at work , charge at driving etc

But most impt, don’t charge when gaming.

My previous iPhones are always 100% after 1 year and once 99%

My wife’s previous iPhone XR does not follow any charging pattern or whatsoever. Well you know for ladies, charge as and when etc. 2 years later, 97%.

Her previous previous iPhone 7 did the same. 3 years later.... 96%.

Lucky much?

I took over the 7 and 1.5 years later 75%.

Can’t make any logical sense out of it...

For me I attribute it to the apps. I install only basic apps and not mainstream media apps like Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, that work on the background. XS MAX since 2018 still 96%. Hardly play games.

Did you read about this somewhere? A lot of theories about this battery saver thingy. From what I know and read, it’s good to charge till 80% only to save battery life. Once in awhile then I’ll charge to 100%.
