iPhone 16 Pro Max battery charging beyond set limit

Does anyone have the same problem as me? I have set the charging limit to 80%, sometimes it charges about 1-2% more than 80, but now I see it charging up to 94%. I just bought iPhone 16pro max, is there any problem?

This is normal and expected behavior. Apple notes this in several support articles.

The iPhone has to do this so it can calibrate to 100% battery capacity. It’s normal.
