I literally know someone with this type of issue. Battery goes from like 70 to 20 in maybe 20 minutes

Their phone isn't even that old

I know lemmy hates Apple but HOW?!

My five year old iPhone lasts all day, and is as fast as what I bought it?!

That battery has to be bad. I loved the shit out of my HTC Dream but that only went from 30% to 0 when the battery was BUSTIN

It was probably abused. I've never had a phone get that bad and I really do not think that is some widespread thing. Otherwise you'd see a lot of three year old EVs with a 20 mile range.

not entirely sure tbh Just know their battery is shit at this point

My last phone did this unfortunately. The battery just shit the bed and it would no longer hold a charge for very long. It was one of the last Nexus phones. It was like that for like a year before I finally replaced it. It was very inconvenient.
