I've never fully charged my phone.

Three years ago, I had this weird idea to see what would happen if I never charged my phone to 100%.I had just gotten a brand new iPhone 15 and really wanted to take care of it after my iPhone 11's battery nearly exploded.And everyone says it's better for your batteries if you never charge them all the way, but is that actually true?Well, after three years of never charging this thing above 80%, I finally have an answer.The first thing I did when I got my new phone was to go into my settings and set up the charging limit.And the next day when I woke up and checked my phone, sure enough, it had stopped charging with 20%.

At first, it was really weird never having the satisfaction of a full battery.

But over time, 80 % became the new fully charged, and after a few weeks, I never really thought about it.But the real question is, has 3 years of purposefully having 20 % less battery actually paid off?Well, according to my research, the typical battery health of a 3 -year -old iPhone is 83 -88%.And when I went in to check the battery health of my phone, I found mine sitting at 87%.
