Batteries age at different rates; 95% is still very good and could stay there for months as degradation is not linear.


Cycle count doesn't really have any bearing on battery health, batteries are designed to be charged, used and recharged.


There is no solution; there is no problem. When the remaining capacity gets to 80% Apple says replace it to maintain optimum performance.
