Which iPhone do you have, how long have you had it and what’s your battery’s maximum capacity percentage?

Settings->Battery->Battery Health

My iPhone XS has dropped to 88% and it’s only 9 months old. I feel like this is an excessive drop but it’s within normal parameters for Apple’s warranty!

ExpletiveDelighted · 31/12/2019 23:13

XS, exactly a year old, 86%. I checked it a couple of weeks ago as I was noticing the difference and it was still in warranty but not low enough to be changed. Not very impressed if I'm honest.

mineofuselessinformation · 31/12/2019 23:13

iPhone 6, 97%.
Got it replaced last year as it was dropping rapidly, has been fine since.
