Is it normal for iPhone Battery Health to Drop to 93% in 8 Months?

Hey. So i bought (first use) my iPhone at 11 October as brand new with 100% battery health.

And today im having 93 battery health after 8 months. Is that possible? A little confused that it got to 93 in 8 months. Pretty fast, no?

Normal.


On average, Battery Health will decline at a rate of about 1% a month. That's an average though. Some months it might not decline at all and then drop 2% the next month.

My battery once went 3 months with no decline at all, then dropped 4% the following month.


Replace the battery when the Health is down to 80%.

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%.
