iPhone battery/Lifetime warranty?

Are depleted batteries covered under the lifetime warranty? Say if my iPhone battery drops below 80% capacity?

Unlikely that anyone would cover that as it’s wear and tear. Battery capacity reduces from the moment you start to use the device.

If you have an Apple Device you could look into Apple Care and see if they cover it.

Hi @Bradnsazzy

It would only cover you for manufacturing faults, your battery dropping capacity would be wear and tear which wouldn't be covered.

What is not covered:

Wear & Tear (battery not charging correctly after some time), rusting or other deterioration due to normal
use or exposure, or where you have failed to follow the manufacturer’s instructions

Thanks
