Signs Your MacBook Pro 14-inch (M4 Pro / M4 Max) Battery Needs Replacing

High Battery Cycle Count
System Information > Power > Cycle Count above 900 cycles on the A3185 means a battery assessment at iTech Repairs is strongly recommended.
macOS Battery Service Warning
The A3185 displaying "Service Recommended" or "Replace Now" — Apple's direct advisory to have the high-capacity professional battery replaced.
Unexpected Throttling Under M4 Max GPU Load
The A3185 with M4 Max throttling during sustained GPU renders at mid-range battery — degraded cells unable to sustain peak power delivery to the logic board.
