The battery health was at 100% for 7 months after I bought it. Then it went down to 99% and lasted for like two months. A few days ago it went down to 98 and now it’s already at 97%. Is it normal? It lasted at 100 and 99 for a few months but I feel like it’s going down super quickly now, haven’t changed the charging method or anything
On average, Battery Health / Maximum Capacity will decline about 1% for every 50 Charge Cycles.
So, 254 Charge Cycles divided by 50 = 5.08% Round that off to 5%
Max Capacity should be at about 95% at this time. The fact that your phone is at 97% tells me that your battery was really at 103-104% when new. But, Apple will still display that as 100%.
You will drive yourself crazy if you are checking the battery all the time though. All that really matters is that you replace the battery when it is down to 80% Max Capacity.

Hello Frm9,
Sounds normal to me. My iPhone13 Pro max battery is now at 82% Maximum Capacity and I've had it since Sept of 2021. Apple says only need to worry about battery if it drops below 80% Maximum Capacity. You have a ways to go yet on your battery.
Make sure in Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging > you have Optimized Battery Charging to ON. It does help in the life of the battery.

All batteries decline and that may happen at differing intervals. Here is a user tip by *Lawrence Finch* that may prove helpful…

That is truly amazing. It should have declined much faster initially, but things are catching up now.
Months don't mean much. Charge Cycles do.
How many Charge Cycles on the battery at this point?
Thanks for answering, I was worried because I felt like the battery health was going down quicker than before. This is the first iPhone I ever got so I didn’t have anything to compare to. I have optimized battery charging on so hopefully that helps!
Hello Frm9,
I did a cycle count on mine too. Looks like I'm getting close to a battery replacement time.
Thank you for responding, the cycle count is currently at 254.
