Your iPhone is a vital part of your daily life—whether you’re catching up on emails, using apps, or simply staying in touch. But a declining battery can quickly turn a reliable device into a source of frustration. If you’ve noticed that your iPhone’s battery life is fading, it might be time for an upgrade. In this post, we’ll explore how to maintain your iPhone’s battery health, when to consider a replacement, and why upgrading to a brand-new battery from The Big Phone Store is a smart choice.
The Importance of Battery Life
Battery life directly affects your iPhone’s overall performance and your ability to use it throughout the day. Over time, every battery degrades, which means your iPhone won’t hold its charge as well as it once did. This is a natural part of battery life, but it can lead to more frequent charging, reduced performance, and even unexpected shutdowns.

Apple recommends replacing your iPhone’s battery when its health falls to 79% or lower. At this level, you might start experiencing performance issues like slower app launches, random shutdowns, or the battery draining rapidly. If this sounds familiar, it’s likely time to consider upgrading.
At The Big Phone Store, all our refurbished iPhones come with a battery health of 85% or higher, ensuring that your device runs smoothly from day one. However, if you want maximum performance, we offer the option to upgrade to a brand-new battery during checkout.

The Difference Between Battery Health and Battery Life
Battery Health measures how much your iPhone’s battery has degraded over time, but it doesn’t mean that your battery only holds 85% of a full charge. A battery health of 85% means it can hold 85% of its original capacity when it was new, not that your phone won’t fully charge.
Battery Life, on the other hand, refers to how long your iPhone lasts on a single charge. Even with good battery health, factors like app usage, brightness settings, and background processes can impact daily battery performance.
At The Big Phone Store, all refurbished iPhones come with a battery health of 85% or higher and 100% charging capacity, with the option to upgrade to a brand-new battery for optimal performance and longevity.
How to Check Your iPhone's Battery Health
Apple makes it easy to check your iPhone’s battery health so you can see whether a replacement is needed. Here’s how:
- Open Settings on your iPhone.
- Scroll down and tap on Battery.
- Tap Battery Health to see your battery’s maximum capacity and whether it’s supporting peak performance.
If your battery health is below 79%, Apple recommends replacing it to restore full functionality. Even if your iPhone is performing okay, upgrading to a new battery can give you a noticeable improvement in both battery life and device performance.
How to Maximise Your iPhone’s Battery Life
If your iPhone battery is still in good shape but you’d like to make it last longer, there are a few simple steps you can take:
- Reduce Screen Brightness: Your screen is one of the biggest battery drains. Use auto-brightness or adjust it manually to conserve power.
- Turn on Low Power Mode: This feature automatically reduces background activity to save battery when your iPhone is low on charge.
- Disable Background App Refresh: Apps can refresh in the background, draining your battery. Disable this feature for apps you don’t use regularly.
- Use Dark Mode: If you have an iPhone with an OLED display (iPhone X and later), enabling Dark Mode can help reduce the energy your screen consumes.
- Manage Location Services: Limit apps from using your location by turning off Location Services for apps that don’t need it, or adjust settings to only use your location when necessary.
