MBP 2020 battery

Why doesn´t apple want to accept the fact that the battery on MBP 2020 works far worse than the battery on a MBP mid 2015

While on their official page they say that it lasts about 10 hrs navigating which I believe is a falsehood,

Just been with my MBP 2020 on all the time and actually used it as per official screen time about 4-5 hrs only online and it lasted about 5 -6 hrs.

Consider the fact that they have removed most of the ports that the MBP mid 2015 had and the MBP mid 2015 battery gives better performence than the MBP 2020 i5.

We should consider the fact that apple is not standing up top facts and readily blames MBP owner use while it is it´s own false advertising

Fortunately or unfortunately for apple

I have gone thru. all those processes and failed to fix the problem.

Last incident is today

Ambient temp 15ºC

when i turned it off about 8 hrs ago it was at about 40%.

This morning I turned it on and it failed to start, it showed me that the battery was empty. Given that I decided to record a video of the whole process -

On turning it on it showed battery at 34% and started charging increasing to 46% in less than 10 mins, I strongly believe that there should be something wrong especially since a MBP mid 2015 has better battery management and duration is almost the same as the MBP 2020 despite what appears on apple specifications.
