The world’s biggest battery maker knows a thing or two about battery longevity.
When Oppo, the all-but-official current parent company of OnePlus, listed 1,600 charge-discharge cycles for the battery in its Find X5 Pro flagship handsets, it was endurance unheard of in the phone industry.
Just for comparison, at the time, Apple bragged about a lifespan of its iPhone batteries that was rated for 800 charge-discharge cycles before capacity drops below 80%, or a twice shorter longevity than in Oppo’s phones.
Oppo’s Smart Battery Health Algorithm is capable of tracking the electric potential across the negative electrode in real-time, and then « dynamically adjust the charging currency within a reasonable range, minimizing the occurrence of dead lithium while maintaining the maximum charging current, therefore ensuring a healthier battery lifespan and faster charging speed. »
Moreover, thanks to the Battery Healing Technology of Oppo and, by extension, of OnePlus, the optimized electrolyte formula continuously repairs the electrodes damage caused by each full charge and discharge cycles.
