Anyone with this phone, what battery life are you getting in usage hours?

Mine if taken off charge at 7am and is about to die by 7pm

Usage hours are usually between 5 and 8 hours.

I could have sworn it lasted between 8 and 12 hours and nearly 2 days!

Battery health says 88% but I can’t believe that.

Do you think my battery is way down on capacity or is this the effect of the latest iOS ?

I’d really like to keep this phone.

Was in the same boat, timings and everything you've said. Max battery capacity 87%. Went in on a new battery on Friday and all is good now as it should be.
 
My wife is having these same problems. I guess I’m gonn have to go in and get her battery replaced. Do they have that $29 pricing for this era phone too?
 
First of all - there’s no 7s+.
Secondly, depending on how long you’ve had the phone for & how much you use it on a regular basis, the battery life seems reasonable.
 
Battery life is bad obviously because he bought a 7s plus from the bootleg market in China... That’s the only way to get one since apple never made it
