Hahaha, yeah, good point. It depends how long do you think you still wanna hold on to the 6S? My 6S battery health is at 89% already, but it's not my main phone so I don't plan to change the battery for now.

it's an old phone, maybe I should try DIY. hmm

I had this issue on my iPhone 8 too, but what I did was to reset all the content and settings and restored it back from the backup, and boom, the battery life comes back to how it is supposed to be.

Now I am a happy user or iOS14.

Im usually getting from ebay. Rule is simple - dont get cheapest. Its not like im looking battery for 50 quid, but im not going for 7 $ deals. 15 - 20 quid for battery is ok. I changed batteries for myself and many friends and none of them ever had issues.

Hi guys,

My iphone 11 (used 10 months) is still under warranty.
But the battery maximum capacity is 88%

Can i get a free battery replacement?

Any i saw some post said that it may is a bug , after factory reset the maximum capacity will change. Is it true ?

last time i rmb some people said if you <80% during the first one year you can claim warranty for battery for free

otherwise you cant unless can prove battery drain more than usual, like really significant
