iphone 14 pro max battery replacement in a well-known greenhills repair shop: battery status says “Used” and battery life seems poor

hi! i recently got my iphone 14 pro max battery replaced at a popular repair shop in greenhills. but after checking the battery settings, i noticed it says “used” instead of “genuine”.

does anyone know what “used” actually means? does it mean the battery came from another phone, was refurbished, or something else?

im also a bit concerned because the battery doesnt feel “brand new”. it seems to drain faster than i expected, which makes me wonder whether the battery installed was actually new.

has anyone here encountered the same issue after getting their battery replaced in greenhills or at a third-party repair shop? if so, what did you do, and were you able to get it resolved?

any insights would be appreciated. thanks!
