Troubleshooting Battery Woes: My iPhone 12 Keeps Dying

Today, I encountered a frustrating issue with my iPhone 12 that many of you might relate to. While I was enjoying some videos, my phone unexpectedly powered off. I immediately plugged it in to charge, and after just a few minutes, it sprang back to life. However, the relief was short-lived. Upon checking the battery status, it displayed a meager 1% charge and indicated that it wasn’t accepting any power. Moments later, it shut down again.

This disheartening cycle of briefly turning on, displaying a 1% battery, and then shutting off has been repeated multiple times today. From my investigation, I suspect the charger isn’t the culprit since it works perfectly with my brother’s phone.

Now, I find myself seeking guidance on averting this persistent issue. If anyone has experienced similar problems or has any troubleshooting tips for dealing with iPhone battery issues, I would greatly appreciate your insights! Your advice could make a world of difference in resolving this predicament.

  1. Hi there,

    It sounds like you’re experiencing a common but frustrating issue with your iPhone 12 battery, which could be caused by a faulty battery, software glitches, or hardware problems. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

    • Force Restart: Try performing a force restart on your iPhone. For the iPhone 12, quickly press and release the volume up button, then quickly press and release the volume down button, and finally press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.
    • Check for Software Updates: Ensure your device is running the latest version of iOS. Sometimes, software updates include fixes for battery-related issues. Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update.
    • Perform a Battery Calibration: Drain your battery completely until the device turns off, then charge it uninterrupted to 100%. This can help recalibrate the battery indicator.
    • Inspect Charging Hardware: Although your charger seems to work with other devices, try using a different, high-quality cable and power adapter to rule out charging hardware issues.
    • Reset Settings: Reset all settings by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. This won’t delete your data
