iPhone 15 has new battery health controls to prevent charging past 80%
retrogusto said:A few years ago I wrote to Apple to ask for something similar for laptops. I mostly buy laptops, but 99% of the time I use them at home plugged in, and on occasion I use them elsewhere, but almost never far from an outlet. So I basically always use them plugged in, and like to just leave them plugged in rather than unplugging them every time I turn them off, but as a result my batteries periodically swell up and need to be replaced. I think it’s happened 4 times over the years. One Apple Store employee told me their laptops “weren’t designed to be left plugged in,” although they obviously were left plugged in at the Apple Store. With a previous model, I eventually just took out the battery and used it without one, although it’s nice to have battery backup for emergencies, and these days removing the battery is not as easy. What I asked for was a “desk mode” that would just maintain the battery at a modest level without charging frequently, and if I knew I was going to need more of a charge I could just switch out of desk mode ahead of time. Maybe someday…
