Ipad Pro 10.5 Battery wear 7% after 2 months!

I bought an ipad pro 10.5 64gb WiFi about two months ago, and i can see battery wear persentage increasing really fast. I have been checking it with applications like "battery life" in ios and "CoconutBattery" in MacOS with very similar results. Battery capacity is steadily reducing about 2% every 10 charges cycles!

As of today my battery capacity is at 93% (7500mAh) with 7% wear after only 30 charge cycles, over nominal 8134mAh!!! I have already read some reports from users with the same issue. Think is, that devices like ipad pro 10.5 are designed to have at least 80% battery capacity left after approximately 500, 600 cycles (two years), not 100! It is simply absurd that "pro" devices like the IpadPro 10.5 have such low quality battery component. I can smell some fishy Apple move here with overall frustrating experience because of that. I guess the solution is to wait for the capacity to reach 80% after a few months, take the device to official Apple Service (as in my country we haven't any Apple stores), make them measure the capacity and ask for an exchange with another (refurbished) device.
