Hello,

My iphone 7 (around 1 year) has only 88% battery max capacity. Is it normal ?

Ps : there’s no battery health for ipad air (1) ?

I'd say that's normal. My 7 Plus (brand new at launch) is currently at 99% charge and battery health is showing 89%. I'll accept that as I use it heavily and it's almost 2 years old.

It does also lists this as 'Beta', no? Thus maybe the statistics are not accurate. Merely my opinion.

I just checked mine (iPhone X), and it shows 100%, with current battery at 98%.

Suggestion, check it again, after a full charge.

Mine still 88% (current full charge 100%)

2 years ? Mine around 1 years and already 88%. I wonder is it impact from my frequent charging on cars (using waze alot) and long duration charging (night to morning)

Very possible. I normally don't charge mine during the day unless I hit 10% battery. I will use mine for GPS for short trips (30 ish minutes) but anything longer and I use a GPS unit. I do stream Apple Music anytime I'm in the car.

My wife’s 7 plus battery started acting terribly once it started reporting 86% battery life. Apple said that it should still be acting normal but battery life would be affected because that means that only 86% of the cells are taking a charge now. When I had my 6plus i kept it charging in my phone all the time during the day and then all night as well and it still showed 98% after almost 5 years of usage. Might not be a bad idea to look into a battery replacement before Apple drops the promo if you plan on keeping it long term. $29 is pretty cheap considering I can change them myself for around $15 but risk damaging the battery getting it out.
