Do you know how to contact them

Depends on your location. This is the place to start.

It's possible to get a remote diagnostic. Or a diagnostic at an Apple Store for free. If you don't have access to an Apple Store, Apple's authorized service providers may charge a fee for a diagnostic service.

However, you've had this phone for a little over 2 months and it's at 98%. I can almost guarantee you that there won't be any diagnosis of a malfunction. Even if the battery was at 98% when you got it, that's not specifically considered a defect or a malfunction. I've had an Apple mobile device that I determined was about 94% when I got delivery and it wasn't any kind of defect covered under warranty. The nominal rating is 80% battery health after 500 complete charge-discharge cycles. Anything in between isn't guaranteed or considered a defect based on an intermediate reading. If it somehow goes below 80% (and it hasn't reached 500 cycles) or otherwise fails during your warranty period, you can request a replacement under warranty.

The battery health reading isn't that the user sees in Settings isn't definitive. It's not real time. There are lots of reports that it can seem to stay at 100% and then all of a sudden it might drop to 97% or 96% at once or quickly in succession 97->96 within days. It updates where it might now show any kind of real time display of the underlying battery health.

After about two months? It would seem typical. There are no guarantees. Some do better or worse. That's just how batteries work. It's also an estimate and there is no accounting for when the value updates.

If it’s brand new it battery capacity should be at 100% not 98%

I would contact Apple about it

Mine is still at 100% capacity after about a month

if you are losing percentage points then be better about charging it, like if your battery can go one more day, don’t charge it that night etc.

batteries are like springs, keep them compressed they will lose their springiness. Let them relax every now and then 👍

It is not unusual to lose 1% every month or so, so I would say this is fine.

That's incorrect. There should be no reason why not just charge it whenever convenient. Your suggestion would likely increase the amount of actual battery use compared to leaving it connected to external power where the external power is providing the needs rather than the battery. The best way to prolong battery life is to not use the battery. Leaving it on and active will serve to drain the battery and result in more average cycles per day of use.
