Curious if and when you updated to iOS16, and if that might be the cause. Based on my batt health ‘sudden drop’ I think I see how it’s calculating (at least one measure), and it’s understandable, if not very accurate, but only because it never goes up.

Apple’s got a nice ploy to utilize most iPhones/batts as an AirTag crowdsource beacons though - gotta hand it to them for that.

Bought it two years ago on a black friday deal, new indeed. My previous phone was a 6s which they indeed throttled heavily and made me distrust them. I don’t mind swapping a consumable item, but must they make it so hard.. The timing of drop under 80%, which is the threshold at which they provide a free swap within warranty, is just suspicious.

Strange that this comment is so heavily downvoted lol.

A battery swap that costs €65, for a battery that costs 20 if I could buy it myself. And I have to send in my phone and lose it for 6-10 days. I could do the swap myself, but I don’t have an official battery and they don’t provide DIY battery replacement for 11 pro.
