Apple Watch Battery has 205 mAh to 1,000 Charge Cycles

Apple Watch has a small 205 mAh battery but it compensates with its full load cycles. iFixit are delving into the depths of Apple Watch and discovering aspects that until now were a complete mystery. Just a few hours ago we have known that the heartbeat sensor that incorporates is far more advanced than one might expect.

However, that is not the only surprise found to make the process of dismantling the Apple Watch. One of the big questions was to know what the capacity of the battery watch, because although the autonomy of one day we already hinted that would result in a low-capacity battery, a detail that remained completely unaware.

Now we finally know that Apple Watch mounted a battery of 205 mAh capacity significantly lower than that found in the competition SmartWatch. For example, the Moto 360 has a 300 mAh battery, away from the stunning 700 mAh found in the new LG Watch Urbane LTE. However, not all is bad news, because although the capacity is very limited, appears to compensate with cycles of very high total full load.

Apple Watch Battery is capable of up to 1,000 complete charge cycles retaining 80% of original capacity, a truly impressive when compared to other products in the company figure. For example, the iPhone has 500 full charge cycles with 80% of its original capacity, exactly half of what we find in the Apple Watch. In the case of the iPod, the figure drops to 400 cycles.

Apple Watch retains 80% of its original capacity after 1,000 charge cycles, the iPhone only after 500 cycles To give us an idea, assuming Apple Watch charge every day, resulting in an average of 365 full loads per year, we can count on the original autonomy after almost three years of buying the SmartWatch. Not bad, right?

As we see in MacRumors, also we have the opportunity to replace the battery Apple Watch after it has lost much of its ability. Yes, will cost $ 79 and, considering the difficulty of disassembly of the device, it must be performed by experts of the company. The battery is covered under Apple’s limited 1-year hardware warranty, while out-of-warranty battery service is also available for $79 plus an applicable $6.95 shipping charge if required for the Sport, Watch and Edition models.  What do you think the battery?
