Hi! I recently purchased a brand-new iPhone 15 Pro Max, and after just a few days of using it, the battery health dropped by 1%. A few days later, it dropped another 1%. Is this normal, or is it something I should be worried about?

You're fine. In fact, the iPhone Battery Health is expected to drop 1-3% right out of the box. Apple recommends you get a new battery when the Battery Health reaches less than 80%. Unfortunately, there is no way to determine why, nor when, the Battery Health decreased. In fact, the Battery Health can even increase at times, showing its all just a guesstimation.
Hello!
Maybe it will just stay like that for a while. If the issue persists, have the battery checked out at a Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP). It’s too early to tell if there’s an issue at this point.
Have a great day!
The battery life depends on how you use and setup the device.
You need to tell us how do you use the device for us to tell you if it's normal or not.
for example you use Cellular all the time play games something like that
Hi! My work setup is work from home, so I use Wi-Fi most of the time. I only rely on mobile data when I go out. I also play Genshin Impact on my phone, but I limit my playtime to a maximum of 30 minutes every day.
