received my 13 pro max on launch day. Exactly 13 months from today and still at 100%.
 
My almost launch day 13 PM - I'm pretty lucky. Still trucking on at 103%.

I am a light user and I've been doing a 70-90% charge cycle for most of its life (I do charge to 100% for days out). It has fluctuated from 101-103.1% since I got it.
 
What’s everyone charging with? I’ve been using MagSafe duo since day one with an 18w brick. Thinking I should’ve stuck with my 5w lightning for overnight now, but trusted the ‘smart battery management’….

I use 60w batteries and 35w USB C to Lightning chargers.

IMO 5w is extremely underpowered and the tiny little brick gets uncomfortably hot for me. I had an Apple one start smelling like burnt electronics and yellowing ... so for me, I don't do this. But it does work for a lot of other posters here.

I instead usually try to keep my phone between 40-80% but I work at a desk and this is easy for me to do. I do not have a set charging schedule. I usually plug in once a day to go from 70-90% more often than not. (I use about 30% of my battery a day).

But I've been charging my 13PM with 60-140w USB C chargers its entire life (since 10-06-21) - started out at 101.7%.

Launch day. Was 100 about a month ago.

At 98 according to Apple Battery Health.

Coconut Battery has it at 98.9
 
Purchased mine December 28th, 2021 and now it's sitting at about 94%. Not the best but then again not the worst..
 
Finally started seeing a drop last month on my launch day 13PM:

Now at 204 cycles at 101.4%/4413 mAh, and it has dropped to as low as 99.6%, as reported by coconutBattery; The battery was still in that 102-103% range as far back as mid November. Looks like I'll be on a slow or rapid decline, but have been pleased with the battery life with this phone.

16.2 public beta.
 
Launch day phone, at 88%
I have never run out of battery so don't even think about it usually, and charge it wirelessly when in the car or on nightstand when I sleep
