Hi,


In addition to cycles, age is also a factor. Given that that battery could be over a year and a half old, it's reasonable that its capacity is 98% even though it has only 13 cycles on it.


Modern lithium batteries don't need calibration, if that's what you're asking.


Bottom line, there's nothing wrong and you can just keep using it as you have been.
