Poco C3. I used Phone Doctor Plus app to test. I use this phone for mostly hotspot purposes as JioFi doesn't support Vi. Not getting broadband. As I am moving so using it excessively for hotspot. Should I get my battery replaced?

There is no such notification. Here's my battery stats. I completed 211 charging cycle.

WRT Battery health of their products, Manufactures usually promise / say, "85% Battery health after 500 Charging cycles".

I think @mmadhankumar bro has idea about battery health. I saw him explain in some thread in the past which I can't remember. Can you confirm at what percentage should we get our batteries replaced?

@iDJ bro, 85% is the recommended limit to replace battery. If you can use the battery within 25% to 85%, that is never allow it to drain to zero and never allow to full charge 100%, then your battery will thank you and you will get least degradation of battery in the long run.

One of my EV with just the LeadAcid battery is running for 30th month now without any issue. This type of Battery life in Lead Acid EV is almost an achievement. The beauty is the same 25% to 85% formula.

I think in OneUI 4.0 (Samsung's Android 12), there is a setting to NOT charge the phone above 85% level.
