My iPhone XR is starting to show its age. The battery health is at 85% and I definitely can’t make it a full day anymore.

I don’t remember where, but I remember reading that 80% was the threshold that you should replace. At 85%, I think you are being proactive in replacing if you like your phone and it’s still working well for you. I would do it.

At 85% it’s still totally usable but it’s getting worse and worse. I’d say that 80% could feel like a threshold of where you really should be making a move.
