What is your brand new MBP battery cycle count out of the box? [Merged]

Mine had 4 counts, directly from Apple. Then it was returned cause the battery life was terrible for me..

did you experience sudden drop on battery health?

Mine had either 3 or 4 cycles when I picked it up from the local Apple Store. It's not unusual because these machines have to have the OS installed prior to shipping. Windows based laptops will also have at least a few cycles prior to purchase, although it's much harder to check that information on the Windows side of things.

If you are curious,

14 M2 Pro 1 tb, 16 gb ram, store configuration. This is for a friend of mine. This is right out of the box.

Looks like this came with 2 charge cycles.

After about 2 months of using my M2, my cycle count is 13, with 100% battery health.
