Depending on your use, the battery should reach a capacity of at least 80% after two years.

The capacity does not decrease linear, sometimes it takes a while longer, until a new status is shown.


However, if you think that your battery is defective, you can contact the official Apple Support about that, they can diagnose your iPhone online.
