Battery health

I have had my iPhone 12 now for 7 months or so and the battery health has gone down to 96% capacity already and decreasing. Is there anything that can be done about it?

That actually sounds pretty good. Generally speaking batteries can be expected to be around 80% after two years.

That is nothing to be concerned about 🙂

 

Apple have a setting on their iPhone's which prolongs batteries/battery health, and generally it is switched on by default.

 

The setting I refer to is in Settings/Battery/Battery Health. In there you will see "Optimised Battery Charging". Usually it is switched on by default. 

 

My partner typically has her iPhone for around three years, and even after this time the battery capacity is still in the mid to high 80's and she notices no loss in battery life.
