One of the new features (for iPhone) presented by iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X is the ability of wireless battery charging, aka wireless charging. Although practical because it can charge the device without the battery must be connected to the cable, wireless charging may bring bad effects to the iPhone battery.
This was revealed by an owner of the iPhone 8 Plus named Adrian Kingsley-Hughes who suspected that the performance of the phone is getting more and more decreased after he started using a wireless charger. Adrian then installed the CoconutBattery app to monitor his iPhone 8 Plus recharge cyle.
Recharge cycle is the battery charging cycle from 0 to 100 percent and valid cumulative. For example, users use 75 percent of the phone's battery up to 25 percent left, then fill up to 100 percent the night. If the next day the battery is used 25 percent, it will be counted as one charging cycle.
The iPhone battery is designed to be capable of saving 80 percent of its initial capacity in 500 times the recharge cycle, typically achieved within 2 to 3 years. However, from CoconutBattery, Adrian learned that his iPhone 8 Plus has undergone 135 recharge cycles in less than 6 months.
