How accurate is apples battery health

[skywalkerhild14]

I’ve had my iPhone 8 Plus for about 3 months now and the battery health just dropped from 98% to 95%. I don’t charge it overnight or anything. I try to unplug it when it hits 100%. I have dropped it a few times from about waist high with no damage. Should I be at all concerned?
Ps I have an Otterbox Defender

it's normal i think. The main reason why the battery health is decreased is the usage. Best way to charge is above 25% until 80-95%. Try to calibrate your battery once a month. It basically means resetting your Battery Stat so that it shows actual percentage of remaining charge. Remember calibrating your batery isn't increasing battery life. Hope it helps!
