Hi everyone!
I bought this phone (iphone 12pro) in december 2020. Now october 2021, and maximum capacity of battery now is 91%. It gets worse every week and decreases by 1% every time i check it.
is it normal? And what should i do?
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15
Your battery is fine.
All batteries degrade. Inevitably. Inexorably. Always.
Review and follow this info: Batteries - Maximizing Performance - Apple

When the battery goes from good (80% and up, and yours here is fine) to not good (below 80%), you can consider a battery replacement.
Otherwise, use your iPhone for what you bought it for. Which was probably not as a digital estimate of an analog battery.

Your Battery capacity will decrease over time. It depends on how many times it has been charged. If it drops below 80%, I would think about replacing it. However, at the moment i do not feel that your battery health is concerning.
Yes it is normal in my point of view. I purchased my iPhone 12 Pro Max in December of 2020 as well. My battery health is at 89% and the other iPhone 12 Pro Max in the family, purchased at the same time, is at 90%. It is completely normal.
iPhone or any other phone's battery is a consumable product. It will degrade as time elapses. Apple recommends to have the battery replace when battery health reaches 80% or lower. That should be at about 2 years time.
I have learned to enjoy the $1300 iPhone and not worry at all about a $70 battery which I can replace after two years.
