    Could you point to where Apple tells users to charge a brand new iPhone out of the box or risk permanent battery problems? And where they tell iPhone users to not let the phone stay on overnight?


     


    For the third point, you are completely missing the context of the 100-0% charge. From the Apple webpage you gave: "If you don’t use your device often, be sure to complete a charge cycle at least once a month." In addition, like I said previously, charging down to dead empty recalibrates the battery percentage indicator. If you are using your phone every day, making sure you let it go down to 0% is unnecessary and potentially damaging to the battery. If you never use your phone, then putting it through a 100-0% charge cycle is preferable to letting it sit.
