Why do iPhone batteries need to be replaced?

In 2020, Apple sneakily updated iOS 10.2.1 to reduce the peak performance of older iPhone models with aging batteries. The tech media reached out to Apple for answers when they discovered this.

Apple replied that the update was meant to prevent sudden shutdowns that older iPhone users were witnessing. Those shutdowns occurred when iPhone iPhones with degraded batteries were drawing more power than the battery could supply at once.

To this day, every iPhone model follows the same rule. iOS will reduce the peak performance of your iPhone when it detects your battery is aging. As a result, your iPhone would operate slower under demanding conditions. In this case, replacing the old battery with a new one is the only way to restore its performance to normal.

Do I need to replace the battery or the entire iPhone?

If your iPhone has lasted at least 4 years or older, it is better to replace the whole phone. Because at that age, apart from the battery, other internal electronic components on the motherboard begin to degrade. 

As of 2022, anyone with a used iPhone X and older would be better off buying a later model iPhone (iPhone 12 and later), than replacing the phone battery.

Why is my iPhone 14 battery dying/draining so fast?

Below are various reasons why your iPhone 14 battery is dying so fast:

• Automatic app updates and automatic downloads are enabled. 
• Your Screen Brightness is too high.
• You are receiving too many notifications.
• A few of your apps could be draining too much battery.
• You may have too many apps running in the background.
• You may have disabled dark mode.
• Cellular data drains the battery faster than Wi-Fi.
• You may have to update to the latest iOS version.
• Your iPhone 14 may need a hard reset.
• It might be time to replace the battery.

How do I keep my iPhone 14 battery health at 100?

The only way to keep your iPhone’s battery health at 100% is to stop charging it and using it. Apple says the battery should retain 80% of its original capacity after 500 complete cycles of charging.

But in reality, due to the normal battery-wear and tear process, each time your iPhone 14 battery does about 25 charging cycles, it will lose approximately 1% of the original battery capacity. Therefore, in 300 recharge cycles, your iPhone would have lost 12% of its health (100% – 12% = 89%).

However, after 300 cycles your iPhone may show a battery health capacity much higher than 89%. That’s because Apple usually includes a larger (about 100 to 200 mAh larger) iPhone battery than what’s mentioned in the phone specs. That’s also the reason why your iPhone battery stays at 100% for the first several months before starting to drop.

Can iPhone 14 battery health go back to 100?

No, your iPhone battery health cannot go back to 100%. If your phone has already lost battery health, then there is nothing you can do other than replace the battery. Once the battery capacity decreases beyond 100%, it cannot be restored to full capacity as it is directly proportional to the chemical composition.

How long does it take to replace an iPhone 14 battery replaced?

Does overcharging an iPhone 14 battery damage it?

Doing it occasionally won’t hurt, but if you do it every night, that extra heat can cause the battery’s performance to prematurely degrade. In fact, the lithium-ion batteries in phones don’t really need to be charged fully at all.

Does the iPhone 14 warranty cover the battery?

Your iPhone battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 500 complete charge cycles. The 1-year warranty includes service coverage for a defective battery. If it is out of warranty, a battery service may be available through your local Apple Authorised Service Provider.

How often should I charge my iPhone 14?

If your phone’s battery gets low during the day, you can top it up to maximum capacity. But don’t keep it at 100% for too long.

The iPhone 14 uses a Lithium-ion battery. Such batteries are most stable at around 50% charge. Leaving your iPhone 14 battery fully discharged at 0% for a long time is not recommended. Also, you shouldn’t keep your iPhone 14 battery fully charged at 100% for too long.

If you have enabled Optimized Battery Charging in the iPhone battery settings, then the best practice is to charge the phone overnight, every night. When the feature is enabled, your iPhone will delay charging past 80% in certain situations. And complete charge when it feels like you may soon use your device.

Optimized Battery Charging in iOS 13 and later is designed to extend the life of your battery by reducing the time your iPhone spends fully charged. By learning your daily charging routine, your iPhone can activate Optimized Battery Charging only when it anticipates it will be connected to a charger for an extended period of time.

Is it okay to charge an iPhone 14 overnight?

If you have enabled Optimized Battery Charging in the iPhone battery settings, then charging your iPhone overnight shouldn’t cause any issues.

Does the iPhone 14 always-on display drain the battery?

The always-on display is clearly a feature that’s been optimized for the iPhone 14’s OLED ProMotion display. But turning it off will make you gain some extra battery life. 

That’s why when you toggle on Low Power Mode on your iPhone (by tapping on Settings > Battery and toggling Low Power Mode), the always-on display gets disabled.

How long does iPhone 14 take to charge?

Using a 30-watt charger, you can charge your iPhone 14 from 0% to 50% in about half an hour. It will take about two hours to go from 0% to 100%. 

Comparatively, a 20-watt charger would take about three hours, while an older Apple USB 5-watt charger would take about four hours.

Obviously, if you are charging overnight, this difference in speed may not matter to you. But if you want the fastest charging possible, upgrade your old USB charger to a USB-C charger rated at around 30 watts.
