I’m not sure what you mean; is it that the battery capacity has dropped from 100% to 99% after 25 charge cycles? If so, that is exactly according to spec. The battery is rated to stay at or above 80% for 500 charge cycles. Doing some basic grade-school math that translates to a 1% loss of capacity for each 25 full charge cycles.


And actually, it may not have dropped 1%. If it dropped just 0.1% it would still read 99%, because the gauge throws away the fractional part of the capacity measurement.


In other words, your iPhone battery is performing at or above its specification.
