I also have the iPhone 13 Pro Max. My battery status is at 98% after 4 months of use.

Battery status and performance

Your battery is fine under normal use. iPhone batteries, like all rechargeable batteries, are consumable parts that become less efficient as they age. You should replace the battery when the battery status drops below 80%, which will last more than 2 years under normal use. Until then, enjoy your iPhone.

Same here 99 percent for two months and I barely charged the battery. More than 90 percent have taken great care of their battery at some point.

I know people who are 10 months old, but it's still 100 percent

it's really disappointing

besides, my camera opens by itself at least 10 times a day

Batteries are consumables; each time they are discharged and then recharged, they lose some capacity. On average, this results in a loss of approximately 1% for every 25 "full charge cycles". For example, if you charge the phone overnight every night (and that's what you should do; it's a best practice), the day will start at 100%. If it drops to 20% at the end of the day before you recharge it overnight, that counts as 0.8 full charge cycles (20% to 100%) or about 24 full charge cycles per day. month of use. In this example, your battery capacity loses approximately 1% per month. If the end-of-day level is higher than 20%, the capacity loss will obviously be a little less, and if it is lower than 20%, or if you charge it during the day, the capacity loss will be higher.

When capacity drops below 80%, or a message appears in Battery Health that the battery is not meeting peak performance expectations, it's time to replace the battery →Replace iPhone battery - Official Apple Support

The absolute best way to get the most out of a charge and to slow the decline in battery capacity in the long term is to enable optimized battery charging (Settings/Battery/Battery Mode) and turn the device on every night to charge overnight. The battery charges quickly to 80% and then pauses. During sleep, the phone uses AC power instead of battery power, allowing the battery to "rest", reducing the need to charge the battery as often. The phone will resume charging to reach 100% when you are ready to use your phone; it will "learn" your usage pattern. If you turn on iCloud Backup (Settings/[your name]/iCloud - iCloud Backup), your phone will also be backed up overnight so you never lose more than the current day's updates.

Waiting until your battery drops to 20% won't charge your phone better, but it will charge slower and use more of your charging cycles. Check out these two Apple support documents on batteries, charging, and maximizing battery life.

I know this, bruh! But a 1% drop in just six days is very worrying

But how long before that did it fall at all? The decline in battery status is not linear. It could stay the same for weeks or months and then drop a few percentage points.

and I use a 5W charger!

my brightness is always at 0. I never let my phone raise its head

bruh but some friends have the same model (13 pro max) and they are still at 99-100:/ they use a fast charger and I never use a fast charger, I use 5w! Can you please tell me 5W is good for battery health, or faster 20W

Unless those friends have the exact same apps on their phones, use them in the exact same places as you, for the exact same amount of time, and receive the same number of calls with the exact same signal strength, there's no comparison.

I already gave you a link on how to charge the battery, but if you missed it, here it is again:

Check out the information in this article about optimized battery charging.

You must understand that the capacity of your battery decreases no matter what you do. There is nothing you can do to change it and very little you can do to slow it down. What you see is normal, expected behavior.

My advice, which I know you won't follow, is to stop worrying about it. Check the condition of the battery again before the warranty expires. If it is lower than 80%, have Apple replace it. Unless you are experiencing a problem with your battery, don't even look at the battery status.

I'm quite worried because I always pay special attention to my phone's battery. I had posted here a week ago that my battery health had just dropped to 99% after 3 months. So after 3 days it came down to 98%, which surprised me, and just now I checked the 97%.

Then after 3 months 100% to 99%, then after 3 days 98% and then after 4 days 97%.

I need some suggestions, I don't like this, I'm sad right now.

Don't worry, it just took some time to calibrate the battery percentage on your phone and that's why it dropped suddenly.

I use 13 pro max and bought it on 25/12/2021... BH dropped 99% on 15/5/2022

Then 98% on 07-09-2022 Now 97% on 18-8-2022 Battery backup is fine, still don't know what's next🫤

If you're charging overnight, the 5W charger is all you need; the phone will be fully charged in the morning. But both are safe to use. Turn on Optimized Battery Charging and consider turning on automatic iCloud backup so that your phone is backed up overnight every night it's plugged in.

My iPhone 13 pro max has a battery status of 89% after 4.5 months. I use the wireless charging pad at night. This may have something to do with the rapid degradation of the battery.

No, how you charge it has nothing to do with it. I use a wireless charging pad every night and have done so for over 3 years. My battery status is 94%. It is more likely that your battery is defective; after 4.5 months this would be expected to be more than 96% with normal use. Use the Contact Support link to have Apple check this for you.
