What is your battery health% ? Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging


Being an iPhone X, it is probably about time for a battery replacement. You can expect 5 -7 years depending on usage and sometimes more, with the X released in 2017, you are looking at about 6 years.

Take the phone to an authorized Apple Service shop to see if they are willing to help.

Unfortunately, an authorized shop will may likely refuse to work on the phone because of tampering by unauthorized "techs".


It won't hurt to try though. An authorized shop is the only source for a genuine Apple battery that will display Battery Health correctly.

Fluctuating Battery:


Battery Health Fluctuation:

As for the Battery Health percentage, even that can increase (fluctuate). This is because the Battery Health percentage is all just a guess on Apple's part.
