From Forbes: Problems with Apple’s iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro have been racking up in the 11 months they have been on sale, and now there’s growing concern about their batteries.
First spotted by Creative Bloq, an increasing number of users are reporting that the battery health of the iPhone 14 range is degrading faster than previous generations. This is perhaps best illustrated in a post by tech creator Andrew Clare, who shows that the battery health of his iPhone 14 Pro lost 10% in a year, compared to 15% for his two-year-old iPhone 14 Pro (85%).
The hundreds of replies to his post tell a similar story, not just of iPhone 14 models rapidly losing battery health but older iPhones showing far more longevity.
These include 3-year-old iPhone 12 models with 85%, 86% and 83%, two-year-old iPhone 13 models with 90%, 87%, 91% and much more. In contrast, iPhone 14 models are regularly reported as in the 80-90% bracket less than a year after launch.
