🔋 How is a Battery Made?
A battery consists of two essential components that determine its quality, durability, and efficiency.
✔ Lithium-ion Technology
Most modern smartphone batteries, including those compatible with iPhone devices, use lithium-ion technology, which offers:
- Faster charging compared to older battery types.
- Longer lifespan and better energy efficiency.
- Higher power density for improved performance.
🔹 Why Do 100% Cobalt Cells Matter?
For the best performance, it is recommended to use high-quality lithium-ion batteries with 100% cobalt cells, ensuring stable charge retention and long-lasting durability.
✔ The Battery Management System (BMS)
The Battery Management System (BMS) is an essential electronic component that:
- Controls and manages the battery’s charge cycles.
- Protects against overcharging, overheating, and excessive discharge.
- Ensures a stable power supply over time.
⚡ Best Practices for Battery Care
To extend your battery’s lifespan and efficiency:
- Perform at least one full charge cycle per month (from 0% to 100%).
- Use certified or high-quality charging accessories.
- Unplug the charger when the battery reaches 100% to prevent overheating.
🚫 Practices to Avoid
- Using low-quality charging cables that may cause unstable power delivery.
- Keeping the charging cable plugged in unnecessarily after a full charge.
- Exposing your smartphone to extreme heat, such as inside a car on a hot day.
🔥 Excessive heat is one of the leading causes of battery degradation.
ℹ️ Important Battery Information
- Do not let the battery fully drain before recharging.
To maintain battery longevity, it is recommended to avoid leaving it at 0% for extended periods.
- Battery calibration may be needed over time.
If the displayed battery percentage seems inaccurate, perform a full discharge until the device turns off, then recharge it to 100%.
- Battery recognition and software messages
Certain devices may display messages regarding battery verification when using third-party replacement batteries.
- Some smartphone models include an internal chip that identifies the battery.
- This message does not affect the device’s performance.
- In some cases, battery status tracking may require programming using a compatible device.
