So you are answering your own question?
They changed my 13mini battery with 83%. I payedNo. I asked. Answer is still no even if you pay for it.
They used to during the iOS 10 battery replacement fiasco but no more.
Battery health has to be below 80% before they’ll replace it.
I recently had mine replaced in my 13 Pro at about 85%. I'm in the US but there was no hassle about paying Apple to replace it.No. I asked. Answer is still no even if you pay for it.

Apple did for me. I think you are confusing this for their iPad battery replacement policy (where they only do an iPad swap for you if its battery falls below 80% health). But for the iPhone, battery replacement is no-questions-asked, so long as you are willing to pay for the cost of the replacement.Of course if you pay.
Which is nonsensical. I’ve seen people replace their batteries in the high 90% just because “it’s over a year old and it won’t get me enough battery life”. Ridiculous.Apple did for me.

Well yes one year after it makes no sense. But still cheaper than to buy a new phoneWhich is nonsensical. I’ve seen people replace their batteries in the high 90% just because “it’s over a year old and it won’t get me enough battery life”. Ridiculous.
Battery health is completely irrelevant if the device isn’t updated, a one-year-old iPhone will not have any battery health related issues. An updated four-year-old iPhone might, but Apple allowing anything and everything isn’t quite right in my opinion. But it’s even more ridiculous to request it.
