The Lithium ion batteries generally do pretty well up to 500 full charge cycles (for the vast majority of users - that’s over a year).

This is the result of a low-voltage high-amperage draw on a battery. . . the thing that Apple was trying to avoid.

So - it isn’t just function of the phone... it is a real safety issue. Again - this just reinforces why Apple was totally justified in taking the steps they did.

I would buy an iPhone if they popped apart by swelling the battery up like that so that I could change it with ease.
