    iPhone 13 mini I was worried about battery life switching to 13 Mini from 12PM… Now I’m not..

    Switching this year from the 12PM to the 13 Mini due to preferring the size after a hands on with the 12 Mini I was initially concerned about a massive hit in battery life. It seems the 13 Mini battery life is well on its way to being as good as the 12PM anyway 😂

    iPhone 13 iPhone 13 and Pro - First iPhones to offer a significant battery upgrade in years?

    This seems to me this phone could really offer a substantial battery life upgrade. Not since my iPhone 4 have i had one with decent battery life. I am coming from an iPhone XS which has awful battery, especially now its at 86% lol. Is this wishful thinking?

    iPhone XR iPhone xr 98% after 368 cycle counts

    Hey everyone! So i just bought an iPhone xr with 98% and 368 cycles, I found it kind of strange because apple says that "A normal battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 500 complete charge cycles", so normally in my case it should be below 90%. I wanna know if it's...

    iPad iPad doesn’t show right battery %

    It bothers me a lot. I charge my IPP mini-led for let’s say 20 minutes, and when I pick it up it displays the same amount of battery %. Sometimes I restart it and it shows more %, sometimes it doesn’t. Any clue? Thanks in advance.
