Why is my iPhone 15 Pro Max's battery health at 88% after only 9 months?

Is it normal to have a 88% battery health even if my Iphone 15 Pro Max is just 9 months?

You may have owned your iPhone 15 Pro Max for 9 months, however it may have been manufactured with an active battery a few months before that.


Battery Health & Performance 

Your battery health is fine and is undergoing normal usage. iPhone batteries, like all rechargeable batteries, are consumable components that become less effective as they age. You should change out the battery once your Battery Health reaches below 80% which will take over 2 years to reach under normal usage. Until then enjoy your iPhone.
