Let the battery drop to 0% once a month is not very wise tbh.
maybe every 3/4 months...

After one year ?!?
You replaced it because of the battery ???
you could have just replaced the battery...
I know that but the Xs didn’t have decent battery anyway, even at 100% capacity it was poor at lasting a day.
Adam.
Launch day 11 Pro Max 512 GB Space Gray Model. Obviously still 100%. Full Charge capacity is 4117 mAH, Design Capacity is 3969 mAH. I use the inductive charging pad, charge it till 80% and then take it off every night when it gets to 80%. When I wake up, still at 80%. Currently, my charge cycle is 10.
Me too - X with 87% - mostly charged by QI. Probably only a hand full were charged on wire. Do you still get over the day?
I got a chance to look at my old IP6 Plus that I sold to a friend, I bought it at launch and has been a daily road warrior ever since (was for me and now for her). I used to charge it up daily with my 12w iPad charger, now she’s using the 5w brick that was in the original box.
The 6 Plus original battery is at 86% and holding strong.
My IP11, obviously at 100%

iphone X, launch day with 96% health. Charged everyday on a generic wireless charger. I rarely use the wired charger.
I have to disagree. My previous XS had very good battery life. From 5 to 6 screen on hours, more than any competitor its size.
my current 11 Pro is way better, for sure, but the iPhone XS wasn’t poor at all.
Xs Max - 95% - Purchased September 2018
I try to plug in the phone before it hits 50% charge. Doesn’t always happen but do this most days.

iPhone Xs, less than a year old. 89%
I charge it when it needs charging, with whatever is closest. I have an off brand wireless charger from Costco next to my bed; and a Samsung one that Verizon sold me when I bought the phone that sits on my desk at work. I plug it in when I am on a trip or in the car. Basically I don’t stress about the battery, it’s a phone, a disposable item. It’ll wear out eventually and that’s Ok.

iPhone Xr (Nov19) just hit 97% battery health after 14 months of use.
Most nights I use a wireless charger and have been on iOS 13 since July (Beta). Never let the phone go down below 20-30% unless on purpose to reset battery (2-3x year) or in rare occasions.
Charge on and off during the day with wireless stand or 12w charger cable.
