Battery Icon Shows Full Charge, but only 96% Capacity
As the title says, my battery is supposedly fully charged, so why am I limited to 96%? It's been like this for a few days, even with a couple restarts in there. I just picked it up last Friday, so I'm a little concerned.

Macs are a little different when it comes to batteries. Between 95-100 its going to tell you its fully charged if it drops to 94 then it charges up to 100%. It's a safety feature.
my battery often shows it is fully charged but the % is only 99 - if i leave it to keep charging it will eventaully go up to 100%. i now ignore the text and go by the %
