Had some weird issue today while using Google Maps on my phone to navigate.
I had 15% left on the battery and thought, i'm gonna make it, as the distance was not to far away.
Like 10 min later it was on 5% and in less then 10 minutes it was dead, down to 0% and shut itself down.
Is this a normal behavior for a dying lithium ion battery in a phone ? I personally don't think so.
Phone is two years old and charged everyday, and sometimes twice a day during heavy use.
Charge cycles ? Might be way over 1000~1100.
Also done a measurement at how much mah it could take in using a meter between the usb port of the charger and cable. Only took like 1852mah, which is way less then the orginal capacity.
Now the problem is, is it totally worth getting a new battery installed ? Have a Galaxy S6 and it has a glued glass backcover and fake batteries are over the world.
I can get one for €29,95 and replace it myself. Fake or not a fake battery ? Don't want it exploding.
