Cross a threshold

http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-apple-responds-to-new-ipad-battery-charges-20120327,0,5698634.story
Apple agreed that the battery indicator does, in fact, show 100% before it's actually crossed that threshold.

Could I ask what "cross a threshold" means?
  

Top answer

HUBLOT Could I ask what "cross a threshold" means? It means that the indicator that is supposed to tell you when the battery is fully charged lies to you. It tells you that the battery is fully charged when, in fact, it is not fully charged.
