why the last 1% of battery seems to drag on way longer than normal 1%
In: Technology
Each manufacturer builds its own Power Management Integrated Circuit(PMIC), back in the day the charge counters would be less reliable so phones had them show less than the battery had.
Nowadays the counters in PMICs are more reliable, but for emergency situations they make it pack 5-10% into 1% and severely limit the phone’s performance.
With a custom ROM and root as I have on my phones, I can disable this and get the actual battery life of 1%, which is just like the other percentages.
