iPhone Battery Health continues to be a hot topic amongst iPhone users, for good reason. Over the past 2 years, many of us have seen a rapid decline in the battery health percentage for our new iPhones. iPhone 16 has been great, but not iPhone 14 or iPhone 15. And while it’s not necessarily something you should obsess over and check daily, it’s important to be informed about what causes that percentage decrease.
In this video, I’m going to explain how the lithium ion battery in the iPhone really works, charging and usage mistakes you’re making, and how I have 97% battery capacity after 300+ cycles on the iPhone 16 Pro. Enjoy!

I’ve learned a lot about battery health since I got my iPhone 16 Pro but I gotta say this is the best video I’ve ever seen on the topic, super informative and helpful! Gonna be showing this to my parents
20 cycles in 2 months on my Flip 6 for now.
my iphone 11 pro max can play internet radio on bluetooth at work for an entire shift and only use 25% battery. However my iphone 17 pro max will use that much battery in an hour under the same conditions.
Simple, don’t use it.
Instantly contradicts himself, heat’s bad, but magsafe charging is good, despite his experience that’s not the true reality, you also charge significantly slower, in what would does losing 50% energy into heat mean compared to only 10% good?
