Any USB-A to USB-C cable should work fine. UGreen ones are good and better quality than the 1st-Party Apple ones

Been using UGreen power adapter & cables for my iPhone and Nintendo Switch. Good quality and sturdy. The cables are thick too. Not flimsy like Apple’s. Best part it cost 25% of Apple cables.

Use the battery to the max. after 2.5 years, go to Apple and replace the battery. problem solved.

Actually battery is not issue for me, before it get deteriorated, I already sold it. The issue here is the value of the phone get drop when you selling iPhone due to that indicator.

Is it me or is my iphone battery draining like crazy recently? rclxub.gif Seens like the culprit seems to be Facebook. Am logging out my facebook to monitor. sweat.gif

I turned off background refresh. So far battery ok. Unless I use GPS. Will turn slightly hot.

Overall the phone (15pro) is so snappy and fast. Scrolling is so smooth, maybe due to the 120hz. I previously used 11pro. Camera is nice but can’t say it’s a super huge leap from 11 pro when viewing the picture on the phone screen.

In less than 3 months after the launch of 15 pro max, the price already can drop so much.

And this year demand for day 1 phone is poor too.
*
Due to currency exchange, too expensive and Malaysia users already into Samsung fold/ultra. On top of minimal changes to the iPhone. Will be worse for iPhone 16.

Using Baseus Clear Case For iPhone 15 Pro (RM11) and i can say the fit is so slim / nice. those wanting a slim case shud go for this. value for money.

previously was using those apple silicon clone cases from shopee and felt made the phone too thick.

this type probably will go yellow within a month or so

but for 11 bucks, it’s expected
*
lets see. if it really turns yellow, ill just get another cover for RM11. but what made me like this cover is the slim profile. so the screen looks edgeless and big.

No point buy higher 100w as iPhone only accept up to around 37W only.

I buy all Apple brand cable, slim (no worried if case blocking) and look great quality.
*
I think it’s 27W max.

To be honest, saying battery health has no reference value isn’t accurate. Battery health reflects how well you manage your phone, not just how much you use it. For example, in Post #11604, the cycle count is 145 with 90% capacity, and in Post #11608, it’s 196 cycles with 97% capacity. Even though they have fewer cycles, their battery health has dropped more than mine, which is still at 100% after 217 cycles provided both of them are using iPhone 15 Pro Max. This shows that it’s not just about usage—good charging habits and proper care play a big role in keeping the battery healthy.

But of course, I do agree battery health isn't the most important thing since it's a consumable, but we can still share tips on taking care of it—especially if you're not upgrading an iPhone every year and want to avoid the hassle of spending 400+ on a battery replacement; taking good care of your battery isn't a bad idea.

Here my friend battery health. She never care about it, charge when battery dead, charge while using the phone etc.

i highlighted my battery health issue in a different thread. but basically my 15pro batt have been taking a hit recently after the latest update. using 20W charger and always plug in phone to carplay while driving. phone does get super hot when watching youtube or charging.
