Understanding iPhone battery health

Battery health has been a big crisis out there, we keep wondering what's happening to my iPhone? my battery health keeps dropping within a month it drops to 99%, within two months it drops to 98%, within 5months it might drop to 95%, its normal, that's the reason your 15series came with battery cycle count. As 25x fully charged will deduct your BH with 1% while 50x fully charged will deduct it by 2%. we have 30days in a month, imagine u keep charging your mobile phone full everyday, then it counts 1 daily for 25days u already lost a BH and in 60days u lost 2 BH🤣

Advice: avoid getting your mobile fully charged and also avoid it getting drained completely.

Yep, about 1% a month on average is expected. You may find some months it will not drop at all. No need to overthink it, just use the Optimized Charging options and charge your phone every night. When the battery health drops below 80%, it will cost $99 to replace it, then it will be just like new again. Enjoy your phone!


Many people think that micromanaging their charging is the answer, but it only creates anxiety by constantly monitoring your phone and it is never at a full charged when they need it. And after all that, what did they gain, 1 month maybe 2?
