iPhone 15 maximum battery capacity

I got my iPhone 15 a month ago, yet the maximum capacity is already at 98%, only 30 cycles. Is that normal? My partner is already over 70 cycles and his phone is still at 100%.

Batteries degrade over time with usage due to chemical aging, that's just how they work.

You can expect about a 1% drop per month with average use on an iPhone. This is an approximation, that is why it may be plus or minus a few percent on a month to month basis.

Apple recommends replacing it when it reaches 80%. To check your battery health, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health.
