I check battery health every cycle with Coconut Battery.
My new iPad Pro 10.5 lost 1.1% of health after just one cycle.
Is it normal?
I'm worried about the battery's health because when the courier handed me the device it was very hot just out of the box probably for the sun. (these days it's very hot here in Italy).
I can not imagine the temperature reached in the van and if the battery could have been damaged.
Would like someone with enough knowledge to tell me if by using "fast charging" on the new iPad pro if it will decrease the battery life/cycles in the long run
Apple put a LOT of technology in their devices and will only allow them to charge at a rate they designed them to do.
According to Apple it will not harm your battery. According to others it could shorten your battery life.
Believe what you want, there is no shortage of advice on this, just watch and see.
I would say you are safe as long as you use a Apple charger and cord.
I don't really wanna "wait and see" on a 800$ device thank you.
I'll wait for someone with enough knowledge on the topic to clarify if using the enabled "fast charging" will lower the life spawn/cycles in the long run![]()
