Apple iPhone 15 will let you limit the battery charge

13 September 2023
Great news for the battery-conscious users.

Sort by:

The pixel 6 and 7 also have these features and Android allows you to activate or deactivate it as you want, Samsung allows it too! so nothing new in the orisonte

    When it takes so long for (most) Android OEMs to implement a genuinely useful feature that Apple ends up doing it first. Android needs to step up its game with implementing features people want rather than locking itself down even further. No wonder Android keeps bleeding users to iOS.

            Its good that iPhone 15s are gonna get this useful feature.
            But limiting this straightforward feature to newest iPhones alone is not good.
            But hey,we are talking about Apple here,everything is a opportunity here.

                You don’t need to limit the battery charge on the fruity phones. They are already limited by charging speeds from the year 1998, so no worries!

                And even if you let it charge to full, the fruit logo company will kindly throttle the performance of the chip after a while, to make sure you have a healthy battery! (And totally NOT to indirectly force you to buy the latest model!)

                    Anonymous, 13 Sep 2023Thank you xperia for creating it 6 years ago. My Xperia XA2 does it too (but I've never used it). But Apple invented it, patented it, and believe they own it, As with everything they copy...

                          Shiny Dave, 13 Sep 2023"Doesn't Android already-" I can't spea... moreYes, in many years and or we can use an app for specifying the % as much we want.
                          To be honest I have my phones around 2 years and therfore always charge it 100%.
                          But a nice feature for those who want it 👍🏻

                              ASUS and Sony first did this, and it's great to see more brands taking attention to it. If we can't have removable battery, at least give us this kind of feature.

                                Gsmarena, some brands have both.

                                Set battery to stop charging completely at 80% .
                                And another option to slow down after certain %.
                                As distinct functions.

                                Even old XZ Premium has both.

                                  Dr. Watson, 13 Sep 2023Nice feature for those who like to keep their battery healt... more"Doesn't Android already-" I can't speak for other versions of Android, but OneUI has an 85% cap option (which I currently use on my S20 FE 5G).

                                      [deleted post]Well they have to give you something to drone on about it seems. Cause what else are you going to do with your time other than rag on every Apple related article this site puts out eh 🤷

                                        Nice feature for those who like to keep their battery healthy, since charging up to a certain percentage instead of going all the way to 100% can increase the battery's longevity.

                                        "But doesn't Android alread-"
                                        Probably.
