Battery health drain

Number of charging sessions, charging rate and more generally speaking temperature could affect the reported battery health. For example charging 10 times a day and keeping your phone at 95% - 100% would wear out the battery faster than if you charged from 50% up to 100% once a day. If your iPhone supports fast charging and you use a Mac or USB-PD charger it could shorten charging time and at the same time decrease battery health faster. Disabling optimized battery charging might magnify these effects.

Just taking the numbers from the 20% decrease over 500 charge cycles yardstick (which I think is used for warranty repair determination) at 30 days × 50% = 15 charge cycles, you might interpolate and expect 0.6%, but that rounds to 1%, and your 2% might be rounded up from 1.5%. Your iPhone probably didn't leave the factory 1 month ago, and if you've only ever discharged your phone to 50% then there's the possibility that the estimated "battery health" percentage comes with a wider margin of error.

i.e. There's little use speculating over an iPhone estimating 98% battery health if it performs as expected.

Well i have a brand new iphone and im having it 1 month only charge 25-100 (mostly) or sometimes 30-85% and my battery health is still 100%

I’m experiencing the same issue since couple of months back. I had 100% battery health almost 7 months since the purchase. After that, about three months now, the battery health has degraded to 96%. Not a gamer though and I don’t even use the phone intensely. Every iOS updates also contribute to its degradation as far as I noticed. Checked the analytics of battery cycle count, the integer was 250 until 14th September. If this ratio continues, I won’t be meeting the 3 year timeline to replace the battery as Apple recommends. Can anyone help explain? Not done a factory reset even once after the purchase, should I now?

I have an Apple Watch 6 Nike and I’m experiencing the same problem, but even worse than what is happening to you. I bought my Apple Watch in June 2021 and the battery health has been 100% until October. Now it’s 92%. Last week it was 96%. Idk how it’s possible, but every two or three charges the battery health dropped by 1% for the last month. And of course I use the original charger that was in the box, and as power brick I use the one that came with my Apple Watch 3 Nike. If anybody can help me, pls reply to this post, cause I have calculated the battery health that I will have next summer, and if it continuous this way it will be 60

Same Problem, i am facing the same, its just been 5 months and its already diminished by 2 % . And now its 98%,

Having this same issue with my 13 Pro current its 89%

Same issue my battery health drained 12% in just 8 month

My battery health dropped 4% in the last 3 weeks despite using original charger

I bought Iphone 11 in december. For the first 2.5 months BH was at 100%. But after that it started decreasing faster. In the last two week it lost 3% and is not at 93%. Is this normal? I never had iphone before so I don’t know how this works😂😂I usually charge 20-100%, Or 30-100. I also sometimes charge it overnight. So, is this fine, am I overreacting? Or is something wrong with battery?

I bought my iPhone 13 Pro in november and it had 100% until the end of april when it dropped to 99%. It had been like that for a while then suddenly dropped to 95% and after 2 weeks i saw it dropped again by 1%. Also it started to have running problems and I think all that is from the last update, after the update I saw the big battery life drop

I bought my iPhone 12 in OCT.2021 and it had 100% until the end of April when it dropped to 99%. and after 1 month again I saw it dropped by 1% and now 95%.

Also, I had connected with Apple support but have not received any satisfactory response.

I was facing the same problem. I bought my iPhone13 seven months ago and i was charging it regularly with an apple 20w charger 20-100% most of the time Andy battery health was 100% But within this past 2 weeks my battery health dropped to 96% from 97-96% even within 2 days. I hope it’s a software issue and it gets fixed with the new update

I have the same issue. In 10th of June 2022 I bought iPhone 11, after 4 month it dropped to 99%. But last week after 1 month it dropped to 98%, and this week it dropped to 97%. What should I do to stop this?
