How to Check the Battery Health of a Certified Pre-Owned Phone and Extend Its Lifespan
When investing in a certified pre-owned phone or a refurbished phone, ensuring the device's battery health is crucial. A well-maintained battery not only guarantees optimal performance but also extends the overall life of your renewed phone. At Ecobuyphone , we specialize in providing high-quality reconditioned phones that meet strict standards, including battery checks. Here’s how you can inspect and maintain your phone’s battery health.
1. Checking Battery Health on Your Pre-Owned Phone
Most modern smartphones provide built-in tools to check battery status:
- For iPhones: Navigate to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. Check the "Maximum Capacity" percentage and "Peak Performance Capability" for insights. A capacity below 80% may indicate the need for a replacement.
-
For Android devices: Access Settings > Battery > Battery Usage or use diagnostic codes (e.g., dial
*#*#4636#*#*
) to view battery information. Alternatively, third-party apps like AccuBattery can provide detailed reports.
If you purchased your reconditioned phone from Ecobuyphone, you can rest assured that the battery has been professionally inspected and restored to meet certified standards.
2. Tips to Extend Your Renewed Phone's Battery Lifespan
Maintaining a healthy battery is key to prolonging the life of your renewed phone. Here are proven strategies:
- Avoid extreme temperatures: Heat is a battery's worst enemy. Keep your phone away from direct sunlight and avoid using it in freezing conditions.
- Use optimized charging habits: Charge your phone when the battery drops to around 20%, and unplug it at about 80–90%. Overnight charging can lead to unnecessary wear over time.
- Enable battery-saving modes: Both iOS and Android have low-power modes to reduce energy consumption when the battery is low. Use these features to reduce strain.
- Update your software: Operating system updates often include battery optimization enhancements, so keep your refurbished phone up to date.
- Turn off unused features: Disable Bluetooth, GPS, and background apps when not in use to conserve battery.
