Hi guys

I have a question regarding the battery of the MacBook Pro 16. I brought it in January last year, and now it has around 750 recharge cycles, and the battery health is 81%. It seems like I will reach 1000 cycles in just a couple of months. I don't understand, previously I had a 13' MBP (2016 model), and it got around 600 cycles in a couple of years. I'm using the laptop the same way as I was doing with the previous model. I don't get it, why there are so many cycles used in just one year..

I'm planning to change the battery once it reaches 1000 cycles. What would you recommend to preserve the recharge cycles? How should I charge it? :D

Many thanks
