I have been using my Iphone 17pro max for almost 8 months now. The charging limit is set to 85% and my current cycle count is at 174. The battery health dropped to 98% yesterday. I just wanna ask if that is normal or is it too fast?
and i need to how the cycle counts are calculated.
Some one suggest me a better way to main the battery health , Now am using 20w 3 pin adapter
Welcome and thank you for sharing your concerns, Ambro41_. 😉
Your battery is performing at normal levels. ←🔋
All rechargeable batteries are consumable components that become less effective as they chemically age.
Recent software updates can accelerate that process by adding features that consume more power.
As lithium-ion batteries chemically age, the amount of charge they can hold diminishes, resulting in shorter amounts of time before a device needs to be recharged.
Li Ion (Lithium Ion) batteries have recharging capabilities; however there are limits.
Temperature Effects on Li Ion Battery Life:
I recommend to slow charge your iPhone to maximize the charge capacity, battery health and efficiency. ⚡️🔋
NOTE: Temperature: Charge above -30°C and Discharge below 55°C. Apple won’t replace the battery until it reaches 80% capacity.

sounds about normal
have you read About the battery and performance of iPhone 11 and later - Apple Support
and maybe
iPhone Battery and Performance - Apple Support
and Batteries - Maximizing Performance - Apple
people report apple does not change the batteries until they are lower than 80% in health
In general, and on average, you can expect the battery to decline about 1% for every 50 Charge Cycles.
So, 174 Charge Cycles divided by 50 = about 3.5% and 100% minus 3.5% = 96.5%.
At 98%, your battery is doing a bit better than average so far.
iPhone battery 98% in 8 months is it good or bad.
