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.


>>If you have Charge Limit set to less than 100 percent, your iPhone will occasionally charge to 100 percent to maintain accurate battery state-of-charge estimates.<<

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