iPhone 15 Pro Max battery health drop from 99% to 96% so quickly

I bought my iphone 15 pro max in April. My battery health first dropped to 99% at the End of October, which i thought it was great. Now one month later it has reached 96%

This isn’t normal…

Battery Dropping:

Yes. This is normal and is to be expected. Right-out-of-the-box, the Battery health typically drops 1-3%. Unfortunately, there is no way to determine why, nor when, then Battery Health decreased. Apple recommends you get a new Battery when the Battery health reaches less than 80%.

Batteries, like people are individuals. No two people age exactly the same and batteries don’t age the same either. The exact usage, chemical make, storage conditions, exposure to heat and cold and about a dozen other factors mean that every battery ages differently. Battery aging is not a linear (straight line) and degrades at different rates as the chemicals in the battery age and the other factors mentioned above. Apple expects your battery health to be at 80% after 24 months. If your battery health misses that expectation, contact Apple Support.
