Had mine since late '22. I’m at 1k cycles, so yeah. about a year. Maybe a little less, because I dont charge my phone overnight, and I only charge it to 80%.
My math was assuming that most users do charge every night, and again during the day 2-3 times a month. 365 + (12x3) = 401. So it seems like we have both ends of standard usage. They’ve basically just said that this battery will only last one year of standard usage before they intentionally hobble it.
If that’s for safety reasons, they need to stop putting unsafe hardware into their handsets.

How do you know how many cycles it has? Is there a way to see that, or are you just counting days?
I have a Pixel 6, don’t charge it overnight. Batteries fine, yet.

I’m using Calyx but I assume that its also the same on Graphene, lineage, AOSP, /e/ so on and so fourth.
Battery information doesn’t exist for me :(
