99% Battery Maximum Capacity on 5 month old Macbook Pro M1

I also have this issue, i just have 38 cycle count and 5months old macbook pro m1 and the maximum capacity got reduced to 97%, I believe this was a bug on the latest update in Big Sur, because I just recently update my macbook a week ago then I got check the battery capacity it went down..

Good day,

So I noticed my Macbook Pro M1's maximum battery battery is now 99%, with only 17 charge cycle counts. My Macbook Pro is only 5 months old. Is this normal?

I have had a 2011 13" Macbook Pro, 2013 13" Macbook Pro and 2014 13" Macbook Pro before this M1, and their battery capacity held better than this(only being in 99% after 1 year).

I have seen similar reports— I would not worry about. It is very hard to comapre a 2011 to a 2020 M1...

You can still expect a cycle count of 1000.
