- OnePlus is working on a new battery health feature that will automatically turn on battery charging protection when your device has been charging for too long.
- We’ve spotted code related to the in-development feature in the latest Android 15 beta update for OnePlus devices.
- The feature aims to slow down battery aging when users charge their devices for extended periods.
Update, July 2, 2024 (11:00 PM ET): The original version of this article erroneously focused on the battery charging limit as the new feature. However, that is not new, as users can already manually toggle the charging limit as per their needs. The new, upcoming feature is that this 80% battery charging limit will turn on automatically (without user input) if the device has been charging for too long. The error is regretted, and the article has been updated to correctly reflect this change.
