An iPhone XS Max is unlikely to still have its original battery at 100% health. So it probably has a replacement battery. Did you buy the iPhone from a reputable source? If not, the battery is probably not genuine and would explain the drop in health that you're seeing:

If I understand you correctly what you are saying is the battery health fell to 91% from 100% after you updated to iOS 15.6.


If that is correct then...


Millions of users who have updated to iOS 15.6 must have a similar issue. Unless you state what the issue is many in this forum may not be able to respond positively to the issue you are facing. 


With the limited information that you have provided, It is hard to even guess the problems faced by you.

I bought iPhone XS Max one weeks ago and the battery health was 100% i even checked the battery life with 3u tools software and it says also 100% every thing works fine and yesterday i updated the iOS to 15.6 after that when I checked the battery health it say 91% even after i update the iOS the cycle count still says 5 times.

before I updated the actual capacity was 3156mAh now it says 2864mAh? I don’t use that much I even turned off background app refresh and location service. Before i bought this phone i used to have iPhone 8 Plus, 7 and 6s plus but I’ve never experienced this kind of thing.
