2:32 - incorrect info. "Apple devices regulate their own charging and their own current draw. No matter what current output your battery can supply, the device will never pull any more than its own electronics allow for." Otherwise, great vid as always.
not really. i once used my friend high watt fast charger brick because mine left behind, my iphone 13 go from 20++% to 80% in 15 min. and automatically cut off the charging process and my phone gets hotter
Retired electronics tech here. Alan is 100% correct. The device plugged into the wall isn't actually a charger. It's a power supply. It's intended to supply a specified voltage with as much current (called "amperage" by the uneducated) as the mobile device calls for, up to the supply's design limit. An iPhone's charge rate is determined by the phone, not what it's connected to.
@@Thankz4sharingfake iphone? very funny. i still got about 2 years 10 month warranty left. i only use apple cable all the time, only 1 time i borrow my friend charging brick, the cable still mine
Because of your videos I started to pay more attention to my iPhone. I learned more than friends and family who have been iPhone users for years on do's and don'ts! I ❤❤ they think I am a Genius🤭 🤣🤣🤣
they’re giving out wring information. FIrst, you can use any usb-c to charge your phone. that’s including 100w chargers. just because the charger is rated more than what the iphone needs, it doesnt mean that the iphone will use all 100w and damage your battery - Secondly. draining your battery consistently is not good for lithium batteries. once you reach around 20%, charge your phone.
@@47crazed ikr I was starting to like these guys until they made that comment about overcharging, like do they really think apple wouldn't think of that. This is common knowledge.
Just made the switch from android and these tips are super helpful and appreciated I have the iPhone 13 pro makes life a lot easier using the tips you provide thank you!
It doesn’t matter if the charger can deliver 3 Amps or more, the iPhone will only draw a safe amount regardless of how many amps the charger can deliver. Also, it is indeed bad for the battery to be at high and low state of charge
@@joetex6810 because common knowledge with modern electronics is that power is drawn, not pushed. If you use a computer for example, a graphics card will not pull 1000W just because you use a 1000W power supply.
THANK YOU for all you do…. You are sooo informative and I have had an IPhone, IMac, IPad, and Mac Air for as long as I can remember and still learning new things. I watched the ads all the way thru, I am subscribed and I commented. Doing my part to help!! Lol 😂
Can I say something? You two are BY FAR my favorite youtubers. Thank you for your helpful videos, but even more important, thank you for the hilarious comments that you use throughout your discussions. This way everything looks so much friendlier!
When I worked at the Apple store, we had employees that would scare customers into thinking all these myths were true. I always said that you should just charge it and not worry with it, especially on a device that you will probably replace after two or three years any ways. It was more important to tell people not to let their little kids play with the phone or to not run around with it in their back pockets. (That’s how many people ended up with cracked screens or a swim in the toilet. )
Jeff, you're another ex-Apple Store employee?! That's awesome. It's absolutely worth noting that not all Apple Store employees have the same level of knowledge or care about customers. I suppose that's true in every profession, but what you're saying sounds right about in line with my experience, too!
My iPhone 4 has its original battery and I use it every day as a radio (TalkRadio). My iPhone 6S (with PAYG sim) is on its 4th battery which is showing 62% health.
Usually trying to aim for at least four years, they’re not exactly cheap. Have needed the battery replaced once, it was draining completely in four hours but the replacement was fine for three years, and have been saved by my tempered glass screen protector once so never a broken screen. You never plan to drop your phone, but it was definitely worth it, being able to fix it yourself in ten minutes at home saves more than just money, it saves a lot of priceless time that you can’t buy and never have enough of.
Most aren’t myths you shouldn’t let your phone train to 0%. I’ve tested this out. I had another iPhone I let it drain and the battery heslth degraded fast over time. Now I’ve got a 12 pro had it for a year it’s on the same battery heslth because I kept it between 40-80%
Great video. Do you recommend using fast chargers at all or will they cause the battery to degrade faster? I’ve heard that they can cause premature battery wear.
The difference is negligible, it’s not really the speed at which it charges, it’s if it gets hot. This is why people will sometimes suggest not using your phone while you charge it. Generally it will be fine, but if you are noticing your phone is getting hot to the touch (not just warm) then stop using it while it charges, or maybe use a slower charger when you do.
I didn't know that's what MFI stood for also. Oh my God 12+ years w/Apple and I'm just learning what MFI stands for. Boy I'm friggin slow. But of course I'm 72 so I'm not even supposed to know how do use an iPhone. Ha ha. Keep up the great work guys. I wish you would do a video on the best phones for seniors in 2022-23ish. i'm not sure if I need to go for the biggest bang in the phone (cameras) or if I can modulate it somewhere in the 12. Or do I need to hit one of the 13s? Are used to have a 6+. I made a mistake of buying SE. And now I got to throw it in the trash where it truly belongs and bump up to a better level..thx
Agreed. I expect it’s technically more accurate to say that the iPhone (the load) draws current from a source (charger). The charger can’t force the iPhone to draw more current than the iPhone allows, unless it was a defective or wrong voltage charger presenting an abnormally high voltage to the phone.
then why do a lot of electronic devices tell you not to use high amperage chargers? I've fucked batteries on many products because i was using a 2w charger...
@@ethanwasme4307 they were probably quick chargers that use a higher voltage to get the quick charge. A voltage higher than your batteries could take. Just a guess, don’t know for sure.
I would just like to say as a first time user of an apple product (i have the iphone 13 pro), this really does help a lot! I've been so paranoid with all this battery myths regarding battery health, the "not charging it to 100%", so thank you so much!! Please make more videos! 🥰
Thank you so much for all your information on everything iPhone. I assume iPad is included with information. Your videos are the only ones I watch for information on anything Apple 🍏
Question on iPhone charging; iphone is charging in the car, plugged in, your running maps, voice turn-by-turn and Pandora. The iphone reaches 100% charge. Does leaving the iphone plugged in for 4 hours bad for the battery while on the road trip?
Using your iPhone while charging makes your iPhone hot Because you are draining the battery and changing it at the same time Hot temperature can damage the battery
1:39 if you transfer your old iPhone to your new one straight out of the box it does say to keep both iPhones plugged in for the duration of the transfer
I lost my air buds found them 3 months later in the dirt on the side of my driveway. It was the rainy season, they weren’t in the case. I wiped the dirt off, charged them up, and they worked! I’m sold.
I tried their optimize charging on my SE 2020 when I first got it and it LOST 6% of its battery health in just 3 months. I went back to keeping it on the charger as much as possible and keeping it as 100% charge as much as possible and it hasn't lost any more health. I kept my SE 2016 on the charger all the time and I used that phone for 4 years and it was still at 99% health when I sold it.
Yeah my experience anecdotally is that my phone seemed to do better when I keep them close to 100% as often as possible. But even if we ignore anecdotal evidence because of small simple sizes, an exhaustive look at the research shows no real consensus on the subject at all. So I just don't see the point in people artificially limiting their battery capacity to 80 or 85%
I watched the subs on this channel grow from 300k to 800k in mere months. 1M will noy be a problem as these guys go straight to the point with little to no nonsense in between. I do love the occasional goofiness.
I charged my iPhone 14 overnight last night for the first time since getting my iPhone 14 a few years ago and surprisingly it charged and also my phone hasn’t been charging lately or it takes a while to charge . I’m gonna try to get a wireless charger
Batteries aren’t flash memory, you can’t use “the first 25%” and then charge it, and have then use capacity out of “the other 75%”. It’s one cell with two electrodes. What happens chemically is not controllable by the device. Unlike NiCd or NiMH, Li batteries don’t have issues with parts of the Ni electrode’s crystal structure changing. The electrodes don’t actually chemically react, they just hold Li ions. Shallow discharge cycles are not a problem and there’s no “unused part of the battery” problem.
Just new on the apply ecosystem and would like to know if it is okay to charge my iPhone through a tunderbolt port on my macbook air. Awesome Video as always! This is my go to channel on all apple stuff I need.
Since always keeping MacBook plugged in can save the battery life span, does the same mechanics apply on iPhone, too? Will iPhone utilize only from the power supply when it's charged up to 100%?
I purchased an amazon dock with their own suppliet charging cable, but I do use my old 2016 SE 5w charging brick. 13 mini charges pretty fast with this setup using a Spigen Magsafe case. Since the 5w brick cant draw out the 15w magsafe, I'm satisfied with that for keeping my battery in good shape. Plus I only recharge my phone every 3-4 days as my usage is just that non-exsistent.
I get that ‘accessory may not be supported’ message occasionally on my iPhone and iPad even when I do use the Apple certified cables including the ones that came with the devices.
We go from Apple’s information on pages like this one: www.apple.com/batteries/why-lithium-ion/ , and also from my first-hand experience with many, many iPhones at the Apple Store. I’m not an engineer and some people’s knowledge of battery chemistry far surpasses my own, but we truly do care about sharing accurate information and are happy to admit when we’re wrong. Maybe you could share what specifically you think we’re incorrect about?
@@PayetteForward Enjoying the videos on this channel, but there are some inaccuracies in this video. Myth #2 is incorrect. I believe you meant to say "Myth #2: Discharge your battery to 0%" it's fully ok to charge your phone whenever you want. you don't need to discharge to 0% and fully cycle your battery to prevent damage. in fact, fully discharging your battery will harm it. Your explanation and example about the old batteries and the need to exercise them seems to support that you misspoke (and miswrote) when presenting myth #2. The old batteries needed to be fully discharged, as you said, and lithium ion batteries don't. It's not a myth that you should avoid deep discharges and keeping your phone away from either extremes. it's one reason why your devices shut off before they fully discharge, and why Apple has the smart feature that stops charging at 80%.
👋🏻 …yeah, my buddies ‘Moonlight and La La Land’ are back w/ more helpful tips ‘n tricks! 😁👍🏻 …this forthcoming 🥂🍾 Happy New Year’s Eve celebration, wishing you both good health, prosperity and peace for ALL! - Tony
2:35 So you don't recommend to use those 65W wall chargers by RavPower or Anker on iPhones? Cause they advertise these chargers as one charger for all your devices.
They're fine, they were totally wrong on that. Wall "chargers" are just DC power supplies, they supply power up to the max rating. The charger on the device such as your iPhone asks the power supply how much power it's allowed to draw so as to not blow a fuse or damage the power supply. It then proceeds to draw however much current it wants. The reason they noticed their phones charging faster is because the old power supplies provided were only capable of outputting 5 watts whereas the newest iPhones can draw up to 27 watts (official spec is 20W but the iPhone 13 Pro Max will draw up to 27 when tested.) Once the phone hits 80% it quickly reduces the power it draws so as to not generate too much heat and potentially damage the battery. They were also totally wrong on how lithium batteries work, the iPhone if we're being pedantic does not have a battery. It has a single lithium cell, lithium batteries in a perfect world always want to be at 50% charge (equilibrium). However from practical perspective you just want to avoid over discharging or staying at 100% all the time. A common range people pick is 20% to 80% and faster charging can help facilitate this and make it easier. There is no way to only use certain parts of a battery or cell.

The reason they noticed their phones charging faster is because the old power supplies provided were only capable of outputting 5 watts whereas the newest iPhones can draw up to 27 watts (official spec is 20W but the iPhone 13 Pro Max will draw up to 27 when tested.) Once the phone hits 80% it quickly reduces the power it draws so as to not generate too much heat and potentially damage the battery.
They were also totally wrong on how lithium batteries work, the iPhone if we're being pedantic does not have a battery. It has a single lithium cell, lithium batteries in a perfect world always want to be at 50% charge (equilibrium). However from practical perspective you just want to avoid over discharging or staying at 100% all the time. A common range people pick is 20% to 80% and faster charging can help facilitate this and make it easier. There is no way to only use certain parts of a battery or cell.
