What happens to the battery if I leave a newly bought iPhone SE unpacked for a long time?
What happens to the battery if I leave a newly bought iPhone SE unpacked for a long time? I recently bought an iPhone SE back. It was supposed to be a Christmas gift for my son, but due to Corona virus related travel restrictions, we were not able to celebrate Christmas together and thus I was not able to give him his new phone. So, it looks like it will be sitting on my desk unpacked for several months (6 months or more) before I can give it to him. I am worried that this may be detrimental for the phone's battery. Should I remove it from its packaging and charge the battery? If so, should I fully charge it (100%), or just 50%? Any advice would be very much appreciated.
