I have an xperia 5ii. Only charged to 80% of capacity daily for its entire existence (may 2021 when I got it)
Accubattery on 100% of the time, 151 charge cycles. Battery at 75%.... sony might have decent tech but their physical batteries suck ass. My horrible HMD Nokia's battery lasted much longer with many more charge cycles.
Plus the whole only 2 years of any updates thing...
Want to love sony phones, love the camera software and niche features, but they just completely drop the ball.
Have you tried fully discharging it? It depends on the specific battery management system in your phone, but my Pixel 7a doesn't take being kept at 30-60% battery too well and loses track of the actual charge level. AccuBattery was reporting about 80% capacity on it after two months.
Then I decided to let it fully discharge and found out that the thing just refuses to die at 1% - that last percent took me about the same time to discharge as going from 20% to 1%. And now I'm back to 98% capacity reported by AccuBattery and the actual battery life has improved noticeably.
Interesting, I will try this. I have only let it die like twice. Restart regularily, but not letting it die. I don't use my phone enough maybe 😅 SoT still isn't bad though at a reported 6 hours from accubattery. 80% of what it was at start.
