New research digs into why batteries in electronics don’t last as long as they did when they were brand new.
The research is kinda interesting, but it’s silly to call it new. It’s ongoing for as long as there is a benefit to improving batteries, and they didn’t find anything particularly illuminating other than heat being generated by other components, which in turn damages the batteries over time.

Isn't the chemistry of lithium batteries like well understood for quite some time now?
And the article doesn't say much and reading the study costs at least $16.

Yeah, exactly. This isn’t news.

Yup, this degradation is all well understood. The only value I see is studying how a large portion of people use their devices to identify what the expected life actually is with the abuse they put their devices through.
