I have my phone set to 80% max charging, but I only do it because it is convenient for me. My usage pattern is just fine with 80% charging. I would NOT do it if it was a hassle.

I did have to teach myself to "be ok" with being below 40% but really my phone lasts a long time down there ...

I do wish this article could quantify what differences you might see charging to 80% rather than 100% over time.

Customers should demand a replaceable battery feature rather than playing silly tricks.

Buying a new phone every year is a environmental disaster.
