Battery charging 80% limit

So I turned on the 80% limit, but my IPhone 15 pro max charged to 84% anyway before I found out. Thoughts?

88% at the end of two years is excellent and better than Apple projects.


Even if you leave the phone plugged in all night long, with out optimized battery charging enabled, it will stop charging when it reaches 100% and let the battery drain for a little while. I really don't see the point of the 80% myself other than perhaps to make people who want to micromanage their battery life happy.


I have optimized battery charging enabled and charge my phone every night, all night. My iPhone 11 Pro was almost 3 years old when I had the battery replaced.
