Unknown Part: notification happened saying my battery is not a genuine Apple part

I got this randomly this morning when I noticed my iPhone mini 13 said 2% on the charger… then I did a hard reset and it said it was full charge then it said 38% and I did a reset and it came back and said unknown part.

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17

The "Unknown Part" message can appear if phone detects a problem with the battery.


Make an appointment at the Apple Store or take the phone to an authorized Apple Service shop to have the battery checked and tested.

It is likely that the battery will need to be replaced. $89 (U.S.) or $0 if you have AppleCare+
