Our Cadex C-7000 battery analyzer 

Of all the components in your cell phone or tablet, the battery is the one most vulnerable to aging. You’ve probably noticed it happening: the older your phone gets, the more often you need to charge it. That’s because your battery has a limited number of charge cycles. As your phone ages, and as it gets charged and discharged over and over again, the chemical components inside start to break down and its capacity starts to diminish. Most cell phone batteries can last a couple years before the diminished capacity starts to become a real problem, depending on a variety of factors. Software updates can also impact battery life. As Apple and Google update their mobile operating systems, added features can put increased strain on the hardware of older phones, including the battery. You may recall that Apple stirred controversy last year by slowing down older phones in order to improve users’ battery performance.

Unfortunately, problems with your battery aren’t always easy to spot when you’re using your phone normally. The reduction in capacity that happens as a battery ages tends to be gradual, so sometimes it’s hard to know whether you really need a new battery for your phone. That’s where we come in. At Phone Medics Plus, we’re equipped with a Cadex C7000, which is a full-featured standalone battery analyzer that is able to perform a wide variety of functions, including evaluating your battery’s health. With it, we can give you a definitive answer about the current condition of your battery. With concrete data in hand, you’ll be better able to make the right decision on whether to replace your phone’s battery.

So if you’re concerned about your phone’s performance, bring it into the Phone Medics Plus repair facility at 91 E. Merritt Island Causeway in Merritt Island today. Our experienced repair technicians will perform a free battery analysis, and if you need a new battery they’ll get it installed for you quickly and affordably.

Managing iPhone Data Usage

In the early days of the iPhone, users enjoyed service plans for AT&T (and later Verizon) that promised unlimited data. Unfortunately, it was too good to last. After a few years, the carriers decided that giving smartphone users unlimited data was either technologically problematic or insufficiently profitable (there’s some debate on this point), and they began to be replaced by limited data plans. Once that happened, we had to start worrying about how much data we used, because the last thing anybody wants is to burn through their monthly allotment and start being charged by the gigabyte. With that in mind, we’re going to spend the next couple posts talking about some of the ways you can manage your cell phone’s data usage, so that you still have some data left at the end of your month.
