its a new phone


No, it's not. An iPhone X is at least 7-8 years old......probably older.


I have a feeling that your phone has been "rigged" to look good.....when it's not. No way that the battery is 100%.


Return the phone immediately for a refund. You will have nothing but problems if you keep the phone.

The Battery Health is not 100% unless you have had a genuine Apple battery installed by an authorized Apple service shop within the last month or two.


Can you confirm on that?


Was the battery replacement performed by an authorized Apple service shop in your area that you can locate on this list?

If yes.......take the phone back to the servicer. Something is not right.
