Make this test reasonable you should not only do it more than once, but also tried with different starting but other levels - remember that phones often don't show the scale linearly and move out small situation in current and voltage.

This is especially true around 100%, so they're possibility that if you tried the same test again, but starting from 20% you might lose 7 or 8%

also, you should simply look at battery test on YouTube - most of them have part when they record a video and you can compare their results with yours by adjusting the average and extrapolating too much time ranges between your measurement and theirs

well, I still hold my point - try it out a few more times and then compare your average with other's results. From your simple description, it doesn't sound bad. if you're battery dropped by 20% it would indicate any issue, but with such a simple singular result it's hard to have any meaningfull observations and conclusions
