Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I bought my Macbook 9 months ago and the battery life is already 91%, system shows 274 cycles (which I find hard to believe) it's quite high and the battery health is quite low, I feel that there's something off.
Would you consider that normal?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

It seems normal, Apple will not address battery unless it drops below 80%
You still have an expected 1000 cycle count

If you are near the mains keep in plugged in, if you need the portability the run on battery.
