Tried re-setting SMC and calibrating battery many times but ti no avail. Last battery is an Apple battery and previous ones OEM versions but same problem with all. Has anyone any suggestions.

Mac battery drops from 80% to 0 and dies In the last two weeks, my MacBook Pro 15in 2016 dies suddenly even when there is plenty of battery. It will be at 70% and then just die. When I plug it back it, it starts at 0%. this is even when I am simply checking email and do not have anything intensive running at all. Battery Condition: Normal macOS: Monterey v 12.7.1 my software is up to date and I have already tried the SMC reset and that did not help.

Incorrect battery percentage in MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro, shut down without warning! I have bought brand new MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro. After 2 month of normal use, I noticed strange thing - when the battery drains to 18-25% it can turn off without any warning! If I plug it in to power, it immediately shows these 18-25%. If I try to reboot it - it can show 10% for example. I tried everything what I can, diagnostics, Mac OS Monterey reinstallation, but nothing helps. I went to official apple repair service and they changed the top case of my MacBook. Problem solved for 1 month. Then I upgraded my MacBook to Mac OS Ventura. Problem started again. I reinstalled MacOS Monterey, but the problem is not gone. Has anyone encountered such a problem? What are the solution methods? I think if I go to the Apple repair service they will change my top case again and the problem will appear again. Please, help

Can you check the battery condition?

Check the condition of your Mac notebook’s battery – Apple Support (UK)

it could be that the battery is worn out and in need of service
