Battery status says battery is 100% charged but system report says NO for battery fully charged?

So i just replaced battery for my MacBook pro Mid 2012. I am right now doing calibration process which needs me to charge the battery full and leave it at full for at least 2 hours. The new battery had a charge of 74% so i shut down the laptop and left it charging to full. After about 2-3 hours of charging the battery finally shows 100%. When I click on battery it says battery is charged. The indicator on charging cable is also green indicating full charge. But when i go to system report it says NO for FULLY CHARGED.


Charge Information:

Charge Remaining (mAh): 5701

Fully Charged: No

Charging: No

Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5701

Health Information:

Cycle Count: 2

Condition: Normal


Is this normal? As this is a new battery and I did self installation I am a bit worried if this indicates some kind of fault in battery or installation? Please guide me.


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Do i do SMC reset now? or should i wait till the calibration process of leaving it charged for 2 hrs then discharging it till it sleeps and then fully recharging it again is over.

If I do SMC reset now will it affect the calibration process or battery life?

If you have an issue, I would recommend you reset the SMC.
