MacBook Pro keep turning off randomly

Hi,

I have a 2017 MBP and it has a battery cycle count of 713 with the condition: Recommended Service.

But since the battery cycle count hit 700, the computer has started showing worrying signs.

and now the battery can be 80% or 70% charged and it turns off unexpectedly, when i try to restart it it shows dead battery and when i plug it in i see the battery at the same percentage. I really do not know what to do. I've tried a lot of things like resetting SMC and stuff ... but the same keeps happening.

I don't think it's a battery issue as it hasn't hit 1000 cycles yet.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.6

Batteries can fail at anytime.

I would service the battery and compare your results...
