I have a macbook pro mid2010 that I changed the battery and logic board a few moths ago, I have an issue with the battery that after a full charge and removing the charger plug the battery suddenly drops below 80% runs normal till about 50% and then the macbook suddenly shutdown down and don’t turn up again until I plug the charger again, tried reseting smc and calibrating the battery with no result, and help pls?
 
Where did you get the battery? If it came from Apple, take it back to the Apple store for diagnosis?
 
I changed the battery and logic board nearly a year ago now, and it was from a third party store, I would buy a new battery but don’t know if maybe there something else to the problem
 
Most likely a bad or flaky battery.
Buying replacement batteries can be a guessing game:
Will you get a good one? Or....?
 
Is it normal that full charge capacity is greater then design capacity?
