Today we are going to talk about why the iPhone slows down as time goes by and even update after update. Something that surely all users wondered and we did not know its explanation to date.
Surely you've ever wondered why your iPhone is worse off if you always use it the same way or if you haven't done anything out of the ordinary with it. All this has an explanation, and yes, you are right. Your device gets worse with the passage of time and everything has an explanation that we are going to give you below.
If you have an iPhone that is more than 2 years old, you are very interested in reading this article and knowing what is happening to your device.
APPLE CONFIRMS US THAT THE IPHONE GOES SLOWER OVER TIME
According to a statement that Apple has released, they clearly explain this to us
Our goal is for the user to enjoy the best experience with their iPhone, and that includes not only performance but also the life of their devices. Lithium batteries become less efficient when facing consumption peaks when they are exposed to low temperatures, or when they already exceed a certain age. This may cause the device to shut down unexpectedly to protect its components.
Last year we released a feature for the iPhone 6, 6s and SE that lowered those power spikes when needed to prevent the device from shutting down. We have now extended that feature to iPhone 7 with iOS 11.2 and plan to introduce new devices in the future.
This means that as our battery wears down, the iPhone gets worse.Therefore a battery change will give a second life to this device. The batteries are damaged after 500 cycles (understanding cycles as a charge from 0% to 100%).
Now, how do we know if our battery is good or bad? At APPerlas we are going to explain how to find out, since it is very simple
HOW TO KNOW IF OUR BATTERY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED
Well, as we always tell you, Apple gives us all the facilities in the world and leaves everything very well chewed. So in this case it was not going to be less.
If we enter the device's settings and go to the “Battery” section,in the case of having to replace it, we would see something like this
Message indicating that the battery needs to be replaced
This message tells us that the battery must be changed. Therefore, if you do not have this message, it is because your battery is correct at the moment and has not reached 500 charge cycles.
Also in APPerlas we talk about an app that analyzes our battery and will inform us at the moment of its status. An app that we recommend you download and use if we want to know if our iPhone's battery is he althy or not.
