I’m not sure if it’s worse for the long-term battery health or not but I want the fastest possible charging so I just bought the Apple 20W USB‑C Power Adapter and the 6ft/1.8m Anker 641 cable. New batteries aren’t too expensive.
I charge my 8 Plus at 2.4A/12W now because 1A/5W is just too slow. It might not even be less healthy for the battery to fast charge it.
I still try to stop charging before it reaches 90% as I believe that helps (there was a study done on this). Ideally I’d also put it on charge before it gets down to 40% but that doesn’t often happen.
I’ve been using this phone for over 3.5 years now and the Maximum Capacity is now down to 84%. I wonder how this compares with others.
I believe the Battery Health “Maximum Capacity” on my iPhone 8 Plus goes down slower because most of the time I charge it at a standard 1 amp rather than fast charging it at higher amps and the other thing I do is I stop charging it by 89% when I can and I also try to avoid letting the battery go down too low (40%+ is optimal apparently) when I can. My Maximum Capacity is 85% and I’ve had the phone since new with the same battery for a little over 3 years now.
Is 15% degradation in 3 years pretty good or just average?

mojojojo, 20 Feb 2018also what i found annoying: notifications will played on top of music played, and while at it ... moreso you prefer to miss an important notification just for music or dont you get important notes. I appriciate phones that do this.

Please I have a problem with my iCloud storage
Have deleted all my pictures and my apps but still can’t take pics from camera

Only iPhone that had side switch for ringer, you won't be like Android since the ringer mode is on notification panel
Indeed it's expensive, but it works very well. my iph 6 resist throughout the day better than my s6 for example (battery life) what i like the most at apple ecosystem is that it does t have so much advertisments like android on random apps ( youtube, fb, fb messenger)
also what i found annoying: notifications will played on top of music played, and while at it they had the nerve to mute my music and then continue playing the music. can just the notification muted just visual notifs, or at least the notification sound played and leave my music playing unaltered

Klondike, 15 Feb 2018It cost a kidney but they don't give you fast charger LOL... True indeed. That's why I never own an iPhone though I can afford it easily. If I ever use it, I probably need to bring my charger everywhere I go.
To expensive
Not a user friendly
there's a lot of things lacking on this Phone ssshhhh. even its a high end Phone
[deleted post]It sums up that there are those for whom the iPhone's with sophisticated tech like true face unlock is on a too high a branch, so they scream "sour grapes" and call those who actually have the latest iPhone "sheep."
Apple "forced" us all to abandon floppy disks, too.
It's always entertaining to see strong negative opinions from people who have never used late model iPhone.
"Still not finding a nice viewer for this type of images and sharing is painful as it involves converting the photos first."
No, really? XnView and XnConvert supports HEIC for a long time.
Solid phone. Expect five years of use from it.
