Battery health

So I bought an iPhone 12 about 8 months ago. In the last couple months my battery health has dropped from 100% to 97%. My charge patterns haven’t changed all these months. I charge it 1 time in a day. Only overnight. Optimal charging is on. Never use it while charging. What might be the matter?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

Battery Health hi, I have the IPhone SE . I’ve had for about 5 months going on 6 months . My battery health dropped from 100% to 94%. My phone normally wouldn’t charge to 100% but as of 07/19/2021 it miraculously completed to 100%. The battery health is still set to 94%. Any ideas or suggestions would greatly be appreciated . Thank you !!

My battery health has gone down 8 percent in the past 2 months. I got this phone (iPhone 11) on 28th July 2023 when the battery health was 89% and today, 28th August 2023, the battery health is 81%. I have no idea what I should do. I charge overnight occasionally, I don't use my phone while charging and I don't let it go below 20%. I also keep it in room temperature.

Battery Health dropped to 97% in two months. I bought a brand-new iPhone 11 in mid-April. As per suggestions from trusted sources always kept my battery between 20 and 80 percent charge. However, today I saw my battery health at 97%. It has only been a little over two months. Is it normal for battery health to drop 3% in two months? What more should I do to maximize my battery's health?

That's absolutely normal.

Start worrying when the maximum capacity percentage (which is related to when your battery was new) goes down below 82-80%.
