The battery issues regarding iPhone 11

I am using iPhone 11 and it has bought recently in end of September 2019.

I have always maintained the charging to phone when it has been 21% of the energy.

the question is my battery has gone to reduce in 98% battery health.

kindly advise regarding it

Your 2% depletion of battery capacity is normal. The time to change the battery is when the Battery Health shows you the battery capacity at 80% or less. This, during normal use, will not happen until a little after 2 years. I know this from experience and also by reading up on Apple battery specifications. Enjoy your iPhone.

There is no problem with the device showing 98% battery health at this point. See this from a fellow user.


Thanks to Lawrence Finch for this review.


Your battery capacity is not measured in weeks or months, it is measured in full charge cycles. One full charge cycle is discharge to zero, then charge to 100%, or any combination of charges that total 100% (for example, charging from 30% to 80% twice). It is spec’d to stay above 80% for 500 full charge cycles. That works out to about 25 full charge cycles for each 1% drop in capacity. So depending on how heavy a user you are that may be a reasonable number. You should only check it after charging to 100% and right after restarting the phone; that is when it is most accurate. If it reaches 80% while it is still in warranty (one year basic, 2 years if you purchased AppleCare+ when you got the phone) Apple will replace the battery for free. Outside of warranty the cost is $69 for an iPhone 11.
