Their battery lifespan estimates aren’t very accurate. My 14” M3 Max MBP is at 85% after 27 months, and I think my cycle count is around 200 or less.

Yeah, it feels like an up front sales technique to assuage concerns and give buyer confidence in the "value" on offer.

LED light bulbs have been like this, and all the ones promising "10+ years" that I've had started to have issues just 4-5 years in.

Good to see similar battery cycle limitations as other MacBooks. Think all the new MacBooks including the Neo will last a long time and one need not worry about battery health or cycle count.
