iPad Pro IPad Pro 10.5 Battery Wear Level

[Eduardboon]

Thank’s!
Does the drop stopped, and now it keeps ‘sitting’ on ~95% firmly?

It shuffles between 100 percent when fully charged to 89 when almost empty.

I bought two Pros. 10.5 ones. At launch.

One is at 75% and the other is at 79. Less than 200 cycles on each.

My iPhone 7 is 11 months ago and at 92%. Less than 300 cycles.

Below 80% sounds like a replacement already. That’s crazy - 75% on a device which is not even a year old.

Hmm...I did not thought this wear issue seems so widespread...

It’s not really an “issue” as such. It depends on how people use their devices.

What do you mean? “Using it wrong”?

If a new device almost instantly falls 4-5% it is not usage fault, as well as falling below 80% with less than 200 cycles.

For example, my 4 months old phone which is being charged daily by 29W charger, plugged in and out for several times during the day still reports 100%.

I’m not saying using the device wrong as such. I’m saying if the phone goes through too many cycles due to heavy usage then the battery will wear out faster. Just depends on how people use their devices.

Also, I’m not seeing too many posts in the forum relating to early battery wear out when as you mentioned this being a widespread problem. That’s why queried.

Hate to revive an old thread, but I am curious how is your iPad's battery now? I also have 10.5 Pro (1 week left on the original warranty) and the coconut reports 197 cycles and the wear hovers between 75-77% - very disappointed. Since i dont have Apple Care, I wonder what my options are? I had Apple support chat discussion and they ran diagnostics, but of course the battery is OK on their end - go figure.

Apple changed both iPads in 2018.

By now even the replacement iPads were suffering in terms of battery life. So I recently upgraded to iPad Pro 11. Two of them.

I don’t think AppleCare makes any difference. It is just for longer warranty.

I am curious how did you manage to get them both replaced? I am guessing their tools will show the same wear as the remote tools? or not? Can we show coconut data to Apple? I am running out of time (1 week left on warranty) so I would appreciate any guidance on how to approach Apple and convince them honor the fact that the battery is bad and replace without giving me all the imaginable excuses.

The guy saw 87% around 200 cycles. He felt it wouldn’t be at 80% at 1000 cycles. So he authorised to swap both. The other one was around 92% I think.
