Overview

• Apple’s official listings for the iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max rate 1,000 full charge cycles before capacity falls below 80%.
• Samsung’s Galaxy S25 series is labeled at 2,000 full charge cycles to the same 80% capacity threshold.
• The figures come from mandatory EU energy labels published in the EPREL registry and surfaced in new reports.
• Hindustan Times notes the iPhone 17 cycle rating matches the iPhone 16 series, indicating no year‑over‑year gain on this metric.
• Single‑charge endurance on the labels shows only a marginal difference, with the iPhone 17 Air at up to 40:00 hours and the Galaxy S25 Edge at 40:05.
