Other Thoughts on Apple using Battery Health to their Advantage?

[bembol]

I get why Apple was forced to give this information but it seems to work to their advantage.

I never pay attention to Battery Health on my OnePlus, Samsung phones but I find myself looking at my Battery Health a few times when I got my 15PM a few weeks ago.


Take my Mother's iPhone 11, it has 77% Battery Health, needs service according to the settings. She doesn't know this and says there's no issues with her battery life, she loves her iPhone. First time using one, my niece gave it to her, she got 15 last year.

This is my point. If it works, it works.

Now, take someone who PAYS ATTENTION to their battery health. Don't you think this plays with their head and will likely upgrade or spend the money to get it serviced? It's not cheap, my friend spent $130 on his 12PM.

I bring this up too, after seeing this from Kimmel...blinded by loyalty.

Batteries will degrade over time no matter what. A reasonable person will continue using their iPhone as long as it operates normally. It’s a great feature to have the option to see your battery health. Perhaps the best solution would be for Apple to leave out the battery health percentage with just terms like: Normal Condition, Degraded Performance, Needs Servicing.
