MacBook randomly shuts off

My MacBook Pro (13in, 2017) randomly keeps shutting off with and without the power cable plugged in as I'm working. When it finally turns back on after <5min, it still has a high percentage of battery left or at least around 50%. How can I fix this from randomly shutting down on me?

Shutting off - battery My MacBook Pro keeps randomly shutting off. When I try to turn it on it says the battery is dead so I plug in the charger but when it turns on my battery is at 50 or 70 - far from dead. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I checked my battery health and it said it was normal, nothing looks wrong but it just wont stay on.

Macbook Air randomly shuts down Keeps shutting down, like the battery was dead, but there's 77% battery when I plug in and start up. It's an early 2015 Macbook Air, so maybe the battery is near end of life?

Macbook pro 2017 randomly shutting down Recently my MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports) has been randomly shutting down throughout the day. When I press the power button it says it is out of battery. And when I plug in the charger to turn it on, there is still tons of battery left. I am using the BigSur MacOS.

I also have this issue with my 2017, 13in (no-touch-bar) w/ 512 gb storage and 16 gb of ram. Will randomly turn off even when the battery is above 50% and won't turn back on unless plugged in for a bit.
