Apple Responds to the new iPad Battery Overcharging Issue

Apple Responds to the new iPad Battery Overcharging Issue
The issue concerning Apple‘s new iPad’s battery and its ability to charge beyond 100% was on hot water over the previous days when NBC’s John Fortt reports that Apple said charging beyond 100 percent could “harm the longevity of the battery.”
Apple is saying when it reads 100% the battery indicator reads 100%. It’s actually full enough to give you the kind of performance that they promise in their marketing. That’s ten hours of all-day battery life. They say if you charge it more than that, you could harm the longevity of the battery. So they say this isn’t just an issue with the new iPad. It was an issue with the previous ones well but this battery is 70% bigger so you’re more likely to notice it.
Now, however, AllThingsD seems to have a word from Apple VP Michael Tchao that put the issue in rest:
Apple does in fact display the iPad (and iPhone and iPod Touch) as 100 percent charged just before a device reaches a completely charged state. At that point, it will continue charging to 100 percent, then discharge a bit and charge back up to 100 percent, repeating that process until the device is unplugged.
Doing so allows devices to maintain an optimum charge, Apple VP Michael Tchao told AllThingsD today.
“That circuitry is designed so you can keep your device plugged in as long as you would like,” Tchao said. “It’s a great feature that’s always been in iOS.”
