iPhone 8 Plus fast battery bottle nearly 50% compared to the old iPhone?

Wireless charging is one of the most striking features of the new iPhone series 8, 8 Plus, and X, but this could also be the reason why the new generation of iPhone iPhones is faster than the old iPhone.

According to Apple, after 500 charging cycles since charging 100% and using about 0% - cycle count (takes about 36 months), the life of the iPhone battery will be about 80% compared to the original.

But testing 'measuring' the battery life on iPhone 8 Plus by Adrian Kingsley-Hughes of Zdnet may cause many users of iPhone models that are supporting this wireless charger to worry.

Specifically, Hughes tried to measure the charging cycle for an iPhone 8 Plus bought immediately after Apple sold its first batch. After about 4 months of use, he found that the battery life of his iPhone was shorter than he thought, cycle count was 82. And round 4 months after buying 91.

According to Hughes, 91 charging cycles in four months are equivalent to about 455 charging cycles in about 20 months. This means, after 20 months, the iPhone 8 Plus battery life will be below 80% faster than the older generation of 36 months.

iPhone 8 Plus reached 82 charging cycles after nearly 4 months.

According to Hughes, it seems that Apple has increased the speed of charging through wireless charging to help the iPhone work better. But this makes the charging capacity more so that the charging cycle increases and makes the device's internal battery life significantly reduced. Although not yet tested, Hughes also suspected that iPhone 8 and iPhone X may encounter a similar situation.

Currently, Apple has not commented on this information yet. This finding comes as Apple faces a series of lawsuits from around the world due to the scandal involving iPhone performance drops.
