Tipster: iPhone 14 Battery Life May Degrade Faster Due to Cost-Cutting
-
Tipster claims Apple using cheaper, lower quality batteries in iPhone 14/15 that degrade faster (600 cycles vs 800 cycles in iPhone 13).
-
Some iPhone 14 users reporting battery health dropping to 88% in less than a year of use.
-
Other Apple products (Watch, iPad, MacBook) have batteries rated for 1000 cycles.
-
Tipster speculates cost-cutting by Apple to offset other newer components.
-
Average customers may not care, but some iPhone 15 owners will likely watch battery health closely.
