iPhone 15 Battery Health Below 80% in Less Than a Year

Hi everyone,

I purchased my iPhone 15 last October, and I’ve noticed that the battery health has already dropped below 80%. Given that it’s been less than a year and I don’t have AppleCare, I’m concerned about the rapid degradation. Has anyone else experienced this issue with their iPhone 15? What are my options for getting the battery replaced, and will it be covered under the standard warranty? Any advice or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

iPhone 15, iOS 17

Given that it’s been less than a year and I don’t have AppleCare,

You do have AppleCare coverage until October this year.

If the Battery Health / Maximum Capacity has dropped below 80%, Apple should replace the battery at no charge.

Make an appointment at the Apple Store or take the phone to an authorized Apple service shop. You can find a list of authorized shops in your area using this link:

It is without question unusual to have the battery health on a current model iPhone go below 80% in the first year. In fact, Apple will most likely replace the battery under warranty as a result.

Schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar and let Apple see it.
