Hi Guys

Can someone help me please?

I'm worried about the state of my Macbook Pro battery. Ive screen-shotted the details of it and was wondering if anyone can advise me? I got it in March but it was a replacement so I'm worried about my guarantee.

I'd really appreciate any help you guys can give. Thank you!!!

Hi
from above it looks perfectly fine,
but show us what it looks like when it is fully charged, so to tell you the actual condition (the charge it can hold).
Right now it is at 87% capacity.
At present usage (consumption) it will last >6 hours.

Okay dokes, will charge it fully and update. thanks so much
 
I second this, those numbers look fine, and 114 cycles is not bad, depending on how many years old the computer is. They are rated for up to 1000 cycles, so I wouldn’t worry too much.

I would say the only time you need to 'worry' about it is if you notice the computer isn't lasting anywhere near as long as it should, the 'condition' in your first screenshot changes from 'normal' or there is any evidence of the battery actually swelling or expanding. Other than that no real need to fret over cycles, or even full charge capacity (it's going to drop over time, it's unavoidable). When the battery is spent you have the option of replacing it if you wish.
