I was looking at this chart in AccuBattery and this dip looks rather strange. It does not look like normal battery wear. Did we get nerfed by the July update like the a-series with bad batteries? What’s your graph look like, if you use AccuBattery or equivalent?

PSA This data correlates almost exactly with my battery stats before I realized the very dangerous battery swelling up like a balloon under the screen.

I’m very not observant and didn’t notice any physical difference until the screen fell plum off the chassis

My Samsung note 4 did that with every single replacement battery. Super annoying

I’m at the point where I’m no longer interested in better battery longevity –we gonna need safety ratings like vehicles at this trend

Replaceable batteries solve pretty much all the battery issues where they blow up, it’s caused by minimising the battery clearances so there’s no healthy breathing/expansion room

Good call. Measured the flatness of the screen and back glass. Both are perfectly flat. If there’s any swelling going on, it hasn’t pressed against them yet.

Good deal. Hope I didn’t frighten ya too much. :D I was also told that you should be able to feel the pressure against the screen before seeing a visible difference too. (I’m still a little peeved I didn’t get more of a warning from the makers of my device, but that’s life)
