Knowing how many charge cycles a Samsung mobile battery has is not an easy thing. Android still does not offer this data natively, which is used to measure how good it is and how much useful life it has left so that it continues to function optimally. However, there are applications that help to know the battery status of a Samsung, and we will see them below, but first we will see what the charging cycles are and everything about this indicator.

Load cycles: what are they and what are they for?

From the name one could deduce or have a close idea of ​​what the charging cycles of a battery are... These represent the times in which a battery is charged from empty to full, for what they serve, as we mentioned above, to find out how used it is and what its condition is.

For example, if a mobile is charged twice at 50%, this represents one charge cycle. Likewise, if it is charged three times, of which two are 30% (60% in total) and one is 40%, it also represents a charge cycle, so they add up.

In general, the battery life of a Samsung or Android mobile is about 500 charge cycles. In some cases, this figure may be higher. Then, the autonomy begins to decrease considerably, reflecting the use and wear that has been given to the battery with each time it is connected to the charger.

Knowing the battery charge cycles of a Samsung mobile... is it possible or not?

The charge cycles of the battery of a Samsung mobile are not shown in any section of its settings, or anywhere else, although this, in principle, is the fault of Android, which does not give access to this information, unlike iOS, which does show it on iPhone. In the same way, Samsung could make it known in some way, just as Xiaomi does with MIUI and the secret code *#*#6485#*#*, which must be dialed on the call pad and leads to a section in which the complete state of the battery is known, as well as the charge cycles, which are represented with the code "MF_02" in said section.

Samsung also has a section for battery status, which can be found in Settings > About phone > Battery status. However, there you can only know if the battery is charging, the level of charge and its capacity in terms of mAh (milliamps=. There is also a section that can be accessed through the phone keypad with the code *#0228#, but in this one you can hardly find additional information that is not very relevant, such as battery voltage and others.
