iPhone 14 Pro Max battery health dropped from 100% to 93%

I got my iPhone 14 Pro Max in February 22nd and its battery health dropped to 93 from 100 in such a short time this can’t be normal can it? I don’t charge it overnight and I don’t let it drop below 20% and I only charge to 80 to 90 percent

This is better than expected if you are saying that you purchased a new iPhone 14 Pro Max for the reason that sberman has already mentioned.


I get much better battery performance when I set the battery to:


Optimized Battery Charging

Connect the iPhone to the power adapter at night and leave it connected all night.....every night

Ignore any charge limits of 70%, 80%, etc

Never let the battery get below 10%


By limiting the charge to 80-90%, you are forcing the battery to charge more often. This places more stress on the battery.
