Batteries, like people are individuals. No two people age exactly the same and batteries don’t age the same either. The exact usage, chemical makeup, storage conditions, exposure to heat and cold and about a dozen other factors mean that every battery ages differently. Battery aging is not a linear (straight line) and degrades at different rates as the chemicals in the battery age and other factors mentioned above. The graph below shows the 4 batteries that were recharged differently and look how differently the batteries capacity changed with age. There is nothing linear in the aging process.



Apple expects your battery health to be at 80% after 24 months. If your battery health misses that expectation, contact Apple Support.
