In my view, Apple’s battery performance has declined over the years. Many users have observed unusual battery behavior, noting that their devices age more quickly and overheat more easily than in the past.
This seems particularly relevant to iPhones. If you are noticing a consistent monthly drop in battery percentage, such that by year’s end it’s at around 88-92%, you should definitely consider visiting Apple Service to inquire about the possibility of a defective device.
If you’re already experiencing issues like overheating or faster-than-advertised battery drain, it may be prudent to seek help from Apple sooner rather than later. The idea that it’s considered “normal” for devices to lose 10% of their battery life every year raises concerns.
If that’s the case, the effective lifespan of the device might only last around two and a half years before significant performance drops occur. This is quite different from my personal experience with the iPad Air 2.
Although I don’t use it as much now, it still functions well and can easily handle watching a lengthy movie. It’s worth noting that the iPad Air 2 was released in 2014 and, even as of 2019, it could still handle playing three full-length movies, each two hours long.
This stark contrast in battery longevity between older and newer devices is concerning and points to a potential issue with how contemporary batteries are designed and manufactured.
