How many charge cycles would it take before a lithium polymer battery to degrade?
>>59570431
Depending on the make, ~500ish.
Battery type: lithium polymer battery
Voltage: 3.8 V. Capacity is 6000mAh
The size:9.8*6.2*0.5 (cm)
depends on loads and temperature
it's always degrading, so there's no definitive answer
for a definitive (still approximate, since no two cells are indentical) answer, you'd need to also specify the load you're applying, the temperature it'll be at, and at what remaining capacity counts as "degraded"

oh, forgot to add that the chart is for Li-Ion, but Li-Po is similar, just didn't find a good multi-load chart in a short period

the world may never know
Like >>59570431 said, it's not easy to know.
I would trust that on average high quality ones will be good for around 300 cycles before they start losing significant Wh capacity.
This is why I will never buy phones with unremovable batteries ever again.

They start degrading immediately. What you want to know is how many cycles (and under what conditions) it takes to lose x% capacity.
It's usually ~ 500-1000 cycles under ideal conditions to lose 20% capacity.
