    This was my first MacBook/macOS device, got it in April 2021, still works perfectly and is in use almost daily. Best laptop I’ve ever owned honestly. Hopefully will be usable for several more years, maybe even many more.

          Open spotlight search and type system report, Then under battery or power(forgot exact name) you will see your health and charge cycles.

          Or best way is to install coconut battery from google, it shows detailed stuff about your battery.

            91% with 188 cycles. I usually use it daily, but not usually many hours. And I use it on battery until it needs charging. It’s usually my “light tasks” machine, like browsing the web, and do online shopping lol. And the occasional gaming and video editing, but I usually use my gaming PC and consoles for that, mac is just a backup there, and it’s nice when i wanna sit back with some hearthstone (probably my most played game on the mac in particular).

              Its really nice health tbh considering 188 cycles, I have seen people use Aldente app and what not to preserve battery, and I have seen people with less than 50 cycles and 88-89% health.

              I mean you bought a laptop use the battery LOL, why preserve it so u can use after 5 yrs 🤣
