Step by step

1. 

   Open Battery health

   Open Settings, Battery and tap Battery health.

   Done

2. 

   Read Maximum capacity

   A lower percentage means less use between charges. Ours said 100%.

   Done

3. 

   Check Smart charging

   It learns your habits and may wait to finish charging. It was off on ours.

   Done

4. 

   Check Resume charging

   Charging stops when full and starts again below the level set: 95% on ours.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• OxygenOS 14 (OnePlus manual)? The manual has Settings, Battery, Battery health, Smart charging, as on ours. Source: OxygenOS 14.0 User Manual
• Charge to 80% only? Custom charging limit is on the same page; it was off on ours. More: set a charging limit.

If this does not work

• Health under 80%? Ask OnePlus about a battery replacement.
• Battery drains fast? See which apps use the most battery. Source: Get the most life from your Android battery

About this guide

Batteries hold less charge as they age. Battery health shows how much.

The screenshots are from our OnePlus Nord 5 with OxygenOS 16.0.5.1201 and Android 16, in Dark mode. Ours showed 100%. Nothing was changed.

Good to know

Use power saving mode on a OnePlus.

In short: Settings, Battery, Battery health, Maximum capacity.
