iPhone 14 PM battery health dropped 2% over a few days

Hi,


I’ve had my iPhone 14 pro max since October last year, so around 8 months. The battery health on it has been at 100% for that whole time, great right!


Only this week I noticed it drop 99% and then a day or two later drop again to 98%. 1% I can understand but 2% in quick succession seems weird.


Is this something I should be worried about and can anyone explain why it decided to drop 2% so quickly?

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16

As I said, it is an inexact figure that varies with usage. Mine has made unexpected drops and others have mentioned increases! The important thing to remember is that all batteries deplete with time and you can expect your Apple Battery to last for about 2 years. Battery Replacement is not a large expense, but be sure to go to an Apple Store when it is time for a new battery.
