iPad battery life draining too fast

I bought a second hand ipad m1 pro 3rd generation few months back...when i bought it had 100% Battery health.And it had a 73 Battery cycle. I used for some months and the current Battery cycle is 150, and the Battery health is 90%...i lost 10% in health. i am concerned..First thing i noticed when the cycle was 139 and health 93%, that the charger he provided me was a fake one..so i immediately changed to a new Anker charger...And a apple original cable...but still i lost the 3% and i am feeling like i am losing the health in the same speed still..can anyone please help?? What i am doing wrong here or what can i make it better.i did follow some youtube steps but that just makes battery drain a little slower..please help i am really concerned..

Presumably you refer to a third generation iPad Pro 11".


How are you measuring your iPad's Battery Health and cycle count? iPadOS does not expose either of these parameters - the Battery Heath feature being exclusive to iPhone. If you are using a third-party software tool to estimate these parameters, they may simply be an estimate derive from unreliable metrics.


If you suspect a battery or charging issue, you would be well advised to verify charging and battery performance using an Apple USB-C Power Adapter that supports USB PD (Power Delivery). Your iPad Pro will have been originally supplied with an 20W Apple USB-C Power Adapter.


You should note that your iPad supports USB PD; it does not support other proprietary charging standards. If using a third-party Power Adapter, charging may be unreliable - if it charges at all.


If you are concerned for the health or performance of your iPad battery, you would be best advised to visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where your iPad can be tested and assessed. If the iPad requires battery service or other repair, you'll be in the best possible place to explore your available options:

Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


Alternatively, you might consider using Apple's mail-in repair service:
