Hi Malikbilalejaz

Welcome to the Apple Community.


Wondering if you might want to update to iOS 15.2


Re: "really worry about this issue"


It may be not worth the worrying ... What is the worst that can happen ?

Battery replacement ? ... maybe $0 .... or, if / when it becomes necessary up to $69 US

First of All thank you for answering my question

There’s some noticeable thing that’s why I’m getting a bit worry

There’s no Official Apple care centre here in pakistan and I don’t trust after market repairing shops

i try most probably to keep my phone charge maximum 80%

and after updating to iOS 15 updates my battery health didn’t stop at any point.My last phone was xs and i sold that phone on 85% battery health after using for 2 years

and this phone hardly used 1 year with less usage than xs

if there’s any software battery calibration possible in next update that’s will be more good

If you bought it used, then you might not have all the history. The battery health number is an estimate, and one that doesn’t recalibrate on a daily basis. I’ve seen my battery health displayed at 100% to 99% for about one year, then drop to 95% quickly. But it was still doing OK with over 200 cycles. But it could have been holding off on the update for some time before you had it.


How many cycles does it have. Apple can access through its diagnostics. There are also some tools that can check it, including coconutBattery for Mac.
