[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1864890, member: 396914"] As for battery health itself, the battery will be happiest (and last longest) if you keep it in the 80% to 50% range, maybe down to 40%, but only rarely, if ever, below that. When you recharge, go ahead and let to go all the way to 100%, but then don't leave it on the charger very long as being held at 100% can diminish battery life overall. And I think that the phone, assuming it's on the latest version of iOS, will "learn" over time what your habits are and monitor the battery appropriately. What the OS can do learn that you put the phone on charge at, let's say, midnight and then pick it up at 7 am. Once it detects that pattern, it will charge the phone to 90-95% and hold it there until just before 7 am, when it will go ahead and top it up so you have a full charge for your day. Pretty clever, actually. But like Ashwin said, just use the phone and enjoy it. The battery will last 3-4 years with normal use pretty much whatever you do. It might stretch to 5, if you baby it, but no battery lasts forever. [/QUOTE]
