My iphone 11 went down 10% of its maximum capacity
Ive been using my iphone 11 for only 6 months and it dropped 10% of its maximum capacity within that time, is this normal? Kinda worried.
iPhone 11, iOS 17

To learn about maximizing (and the difference between) battery life and lifespan, read this support document --> Batteries - Maximizing Performance - Apple
Read this support article about iPhone battery and performance to learn about the battery health feature and what is considered normal performance --> iPhone Battery and Performance - Apple Support
To see the feature go to: Settings > Battery > Battery Health
"A normal battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 500 complete charge cycles when operating under normal conditions. The one-year warranty includes service coverage for a defective battery. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers battery service for a charge." A degraded battery may display the notice: "Your battery’s health is significantly degraded. An Apple Authorized Service Provider can replace the battery to restore full performance and capacity." If it is not at or above 80% "normal", consider contacting Apple about a battery replacement. --> iPhone Battery Service - Apple Support
According to the above quoted information, you could be losing almost 2% per month the entire first year before Apple would deem this to merit a warranty replacement.
- Requires iOS 11.3 and for iPhone 6 and newer iPhones only, not iPad or Watch.
