94% charged Battery can only be used for less than two hours??

hi every one,

i just got my Swift 3 SF314-57 last week.

And I find the battery usage situation a little weird.

It was charged to 94% but it said the time left is only one hour and 43 minutes.

Why is that??

I even turned on the power saving mode.

Hi,
You could try few more cycles of recharging the battery, do not let the battery completely discharged,always set Critical battery level at 5%or 7%,  try to disable any background programs running, disable startup programs in Task Manager, also try a manual battery calibration for accurate readings.
