MacBook Air m1 battery reduced to 98%

I have same problem with my m1 macbook pro 2020 model, the cycle count is only 59 and the maximum capacity 91% , where else I have seen people with more cycle counts having 100% capacity!

Why is that? Can anyone enlighten us?

I bought my Macbook air M1 almost 2 month ago. Condition: Brand new. Cycle count reached 21 and my battery percent is now 96%. The first battery drop happened after around two weeks since i bought my mac. And since on, battery keeps dropping. But in usual case, at least 20 cycle should have caused a 1% battery drop only! I basically follow the rules regarding right care of battery, but does not help. Is it normal??

Well, what did you send it in for? They won't do the battery automatically unless they need to remove it to get to something they need to repair OR if it's the battery itself that you sent it in for of course. But yes, if they have to remove the battery to get to another component like the trackpad or remove the logic board they'll replace the battery since it's in the way so to speak and is also glued in (adhesively). You'll see an itemized list of what they did when you pick it up.

My 3 month old M1 Pro 14" 10-core has 22 cycles on it and is at 97% capacity which is kind of concerning. I have Applecare and all that so no big deal but it should be at -3% capacity after only 22 cycles either....hmmmmmm

Interesting...

My 3 month old (actually 2.5 month) M1 Pro 14" 10-core 16GB/1TB has 22 cycles on it and is at 97% capacity which is kind of concerning. I have Applecare+ so no big deal but should it be at -3% capacity after only 22 cycles? Seems Seems like it should still be at full capacity at only 22 cycles and 2.5 months...hmmmmmm

Could you please tell how many hours of battery backup your mac is giving now and what was it before.

Because everyone is concerned about the battery health but I have not heard a single person talk about the battery backup and what is the result after they got battery replacement.

I have also the same problem, in two months with a 38-cycle count, the battery was reduced to 98%. Apple support is not satisfactory. Even on this ratio of reducing, the battery needs to change in some time. Even Backup is also reduced to 6-7 hours. I think there is issue with battery of Macbook Air M1.

But they told me that it is ok till it will drop to 80 % and apple will not give replacement untill it will go down to 80

I'm at 87% with 97 cycles.

Thats a bit extreme laptop manifactured in Nov 2020.

You're such a lucky guy! Mine has 79 cycles and is now on 91%. I have it since 7 months.

How many charge cycles do you have? Mine has 127 charge cycles and the same battery health as yours

I have only 32 cycle and now battery % age is 94% Wtf now i am very worried about my mac😨😨

I have a similar case, I have 105 charge cycles and my battery health is 94% is this a glitch or anything? Or is it normal. I bought it in Feb 2021. Its a M1 macbook pro

32 only

Same thing happened to me also but i only have 31 cycles Apple should have to listen our concerns

i have the same issue i think its just 4 months when using my macbook m1 then my capacity go down to 97% maybe there's something wrong on the recent update
