No matter what android smartphone you use, over time, you are likely to face battery issues. With regular usage, the efficacy of your phone battery will go down. In some cases, it may go down faster than usual, owing to usage patterns and lack of care etc. The last thing you want when you are outside is the phone battery giving up unexpectedly! So, you should look after the health of your phone battery.
Here, we will show you some handy ways to perform mobile battery health check.
So, what is battery health?
The term “battery health” denotes the extent of deterioration over time and number of charge cycles. For example, some of the latest android phones have a rated battery capacity of 4500mAh. So, when it’s fully charged, the phone will offer 4500mAh battery capacity. Over time, the efficacy will fall to 95% and lower.
As your phone battery health goes down, so does the battery life. Simply speaking, an Android phone with poor battery health will lose battery capacity faster than a new one.
How do you check the battery health of your Android phone?
Android still does not have default ways to fathom battery health. But, there are some workarounds.
Through the Settings menu
When you buy android phones, you will find a way to check battery status by delving into the Settings menu. Now, based on the brand and its iteration of the OS, the setting may be a tad different from one model to another. Some phones will show more detailed info.
