HP Victus 16 Battery fail

[gabrielito99]

I am using this laptop for five days and I realized the battery lasts like 1h or so. I used the HP tools for battery health diagnosis and it says everything is OK. 

I also updated all drivers and OS to most recent updates and checked all battery saving  options are activated:

I have read somewhere the battery from this laptop usually last like 5 hours if you are using it for browsing.

Can it be damaged although the diagnosis says it is OK? and what can I do?

I had the similar issue with my Omen 16. So, you have to fully charge the battery and to update the BIOS. Try it, not sure whether it works or not.
