Apologies for another “battery health” question, wondering if anyone else has a similar situation. Phone battery health has been stuck at 82% for almost a year & iOS 26.5 is just destroying my battery daily. Each update seems to only make my phone die earlier & hotter to hold. I have a feeling the journey to 80% is intentionally taking so long & trying to hold out for the new model this fall. It feels idiotic to pay to replace the battery but feel I’m at the breaking point lol.
Anyone have experience on their timeline to 80% battery free replacement lottery?
Thanks for the help!
