and we can get started on the battery replacement.

had depleted faster than my previous iPhones.

- [Reporter] Wall Street Journalist Joanna Stern

- And I shared some hidden numbers about its battery health.

As of today, as the battery hits 494 charge cycles,

And why did this battery deplete so fast in just a year?

I found the answers to all of that and more.

as a lithium ion battery that lasts forever.

So Apple lets you know just how healthy your battery is

Go to Settings, Battery, Battery Health, and Charging.

But you don't complete a cycle every time you charge.

you can download this software called coconutBattery

Thus, I was charging it more, so more cycle counts happened.

but heat is the number one enemy of batteries.

- Oh no, it's smoking. - Okay, yeah, it is.
