Like any other part it varies on use, environmental conditions, and luck of the draw. Like gas engines typically last over 100k miles, but not always. Some people start getting poor performance from their phone battery months after buying.
True, but I was trying to give the more generous interpretation of what the person I was replying to meant. Hence the “may” in my wording, as in, “sometimes it’s true”
Okay but the studies I’ve seen suggest that EV batteries typically last between 15 and 20 years.

Phone batteries and EV batteries may have chemistry in common, but the tech is totally different.
Even the chemistry is different for some (LiFePo/LFP)
