    Quick question, what causes the battery to degrade like that? My battery has 400 cycles and it’s still at 100% battery health.

      One day you’ll reset it and see the battery go down instantly. Sometimes the system doesn’t report the right battery health.

      My m1 pro has degraded to 96% after barely 6 months of use, i suppose keeping it plugged in for hours or days contributes to the cause.

      However i have noticed that the newer the MacBook, the shorter the lifespan, and more delicate the battery is. Regardless of a 2012 MacBook or 2022, the battery makes Apple money… just as every other part
