iOS 14.2 battery life

The iOS 14.2 battery update will offer an optimized battery charging for both AirPods and the AirPods Pro. The new feature essentially aims at improving the overall battery lifespan and reducing the wear on your AirPods’ battery. The feature works similar to the optimized battery charging feature on an iPhone. With battery optimization, there will be a reduction in the time your Airpods spend fully charged. On iPhones, the battery optimization feature delays charging the device past a given percentage in certain situations.

The new iOS 14.2 update brings plenty of other interesting features to the iPhones such as 16 new wallpapers (including the dark variants), more than 100 new emoji characters, improved lock-screen interface for music, a redesigned AirPlay 2 interface, and many more. As part of the update, Apple has also implemented a number of important fixes for Apple Cash, Apple Watch, the Camera viewfinder, Photo WIdgets, Exposure Notifications, Voice Memos, and others.
