Understanding Apple Watch Battery Health
Before deciding on a battery replacement, it’s important to understand your Apple Watch’s current battery health. Apple Watch batteries are designed to retain up to 80% of their original capacity after 1000 complete charge cycles, which typically takes about 2-3 years of normal use.
How to Check Your Apple Watch Battery Health
Follow these simple steps to check your Apple Watch’s battery health:
- Press the Digital Crown to access the Home screen
- Open the Settings app
- Scroll down and tap on Battery
- Tap on Battery Health
- Check the Maximum Capacity percentage
If your Apple Watch battery health is below 80%, you’ll likely notice significantly reduced battery life, and it’s a good time to consider a replacement.
