When should I charge my M1 MacBook Air?

When should I charge my M1 MacBook Air? and do we need to charge it 100%? Saw on a forum that it's best to charge up to 85 90% rather than 100%. Is it true? How do you guys charge your laptops? When? And to what percentage?


The moment I'm writing this my cycle count is 81. Battery condition is normal and maximum capacity is at 97%.

Using this mac since 9th of Dec 2021
