Do I have the heighest amount?? :D
The thread went inactive in December, so there wasn’t enough time back then. The user above you has 146, and while 21.5 cycles/month is moderately high, it’s nowhere near a lot.

With the 15 series you see 40-45 cycles/month quite a lot.

Battery life have been holding up well. Charge once in the morning at work and another 30% topup at night to last me the entire day and some

And I believe it’s accurate, no noticeable battery degradation at all.

I normally average 9-10 hours SOT per day.

I can say the 16 PM is the best phone I’ve ever owned overall and a great improvement over the 14 PM batteries that aged like milk.

16 Plus, exactly two months old today, for a monthly average of 10 cycles/month. More interesting than my iPhone Xʀ on iOS 12, which ended its lifespan as my main iPhone with a monthly average of 5.31 cycles, but nothing too crazy.
 
16 PM, 100%, cycle count 4 after 9 days, is this normal?

Manufacturing date: December 2024

16 Pro Max (launch day). I'm surprised, especially since my 15 Pro Max was down to around 92% at the same point.

Yeah, you’re like me perhaps, you split usage between devices.

I’m an efficient user who is also a light user, and that means I get a lot of hours per charge, so I don’t put in a lot of cycles in either the iPhone or the iPad (16 Plus and 11-inch iPad combo). The iPhone is at 10/month just because I initially used it heavily (20 in two months). I doubt that’s “sustainable” long-term. I cycled an iPhone 6s/9.7-inch iPad Pro at 10/month for three years, but battery life was less than a third on the iPhone and half on the iPad. The iPad is at 8 almost two months in. Maybe 4-5/month.

You’re at 8/month on the iPhone and 9.1 on the iPad. Long-term, I may have similar numbers.

This is the worst iPhone I can remember. Seems I constantly have to charge it. Wondering if it could be faulty at this stage.
 
According to Coconut Battery my battery is still being an over achiever.lol. I'm currently at 176 battery cycles since new and at 102.3% of the designed capacity....not entirely sure how accurate Coconut Battery is but thats what it's showing....It's currently on a 25W MagSafe charger puck right now. Normally I only let it charge to 80% via the setting in iPhone settings but every once in a while I'll bump it up to fully charge to 100%(like right now).

Launch day 16 Pro. It’s a turd at this point and feels nowhere near 98% of original capacity.
