I have heard that iPhone 13 users get around 8 hours of SOT. But My iPhone 13 drains faster. Can someone tell me if it is normal? Please look at the screenshot taken when the battery at 35% see the screenshot

Hey X-1000,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Runtime for iPhone batteries can depend on usage. Since you have a concern that your iPhone battery may not be lasting as long as it should, we'd recommend starting by checking your settings using the tips from Batteries - Maximizing Performance - Apple. Changing settings mentioned there such as screen brightness or background app refresh may improve iPhone battery life.
Next, check your iPhone battery's maximum capacity from Settings > Battery > Battery Health to make sure that it is over 80%. As mentioned in iPhone Battery and Performance - Apple Support, "A normal battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 500 complete charge cycles when operating under normal conditions." So if 80% or lower, a replacement may be needed.
Kind regards.
Hey Faith185,
Thanks for your response.
my phone is only 5 days old and battery health is 100%. Battery backup is reducing day by day. Now I’m getting only 4.5hrs of SOT with 24% battery left. Not sure what is happening.
Thank you for the reply X-1000!
To confirm, you follow the actions in the two articles we provided in our previous message? If so, and if the issue persists, we recommend contacting Apple directly to investigate:
Cheers!
Battery backup is not good on my iPhone 13
