I have had good luck with batteries by following the charge at 15 percent guideline Samsung moved to.

My Note 8 is going on a lot of cycles. Have had it for too long probably. Battery still holds up solid.

Older device, Note 5 had a 5 percent warning. Battery went to crap quickly.

Avoiding the fast charge helps too. I use it when I need to and just go normal otherwise when I am not time constrained.

No charging port trouble. Wireless charging just works.

Recently, I got a battery back. Doing it now before I really need it. So far, a year in and a lot more plug in charging and I cannot recommend one more highly.

I find I can often run the phone off the back and pretty much never have to allow a deeper discharge.

Battery time leveled off and is in a very, very slow decline.

YMMV, of course.
