iPhone Battery Scandal, Trump's Tariffs Mocked by Apple

Pros

  • The battery in the iPhone 15 Plus is likely the best in the series.

Cons

  • Batteries in the iPhone 15 series quickly lose their health.
  • Apple's promises of 1000 charging cycles with 80% health are not being met.
  • Users experience significant battery degradation after only about 300-350 cycles.

Although the iPhone 15 Plus stands out as the model with the best battery life in the series due to its specifications, the overall battery health of the entire iPhone 15 series raises serious concerns.

Apple's claims of 1000 charging cycles while maintaining 80% battery capacity are unfortunately inconsistent with actual user experiences and feedback, which indicate much faster degradation. The reviewer concludes that these promises should be dismissed as fairy tales, and the battery may drop below 80% health much sooner than after 1000 cycles. Users should not obsessively care for the battery, as the phone is meant to serve them, not the other way around.

unfortunately, after a year I can say frankly that these batteries in iPhone 15 and these mythical 1000 charging cycles and the guarantee of 80% battery health can probably be put away with the fairy tales.
of course, as of now, no one has shown up who has completed 1000 charging cycles, but from the perspective of the next six to twelve months, I am sure that such a number of charging cycles will start appearing on your phones, and the battery health may drop below 80%.
