Hi, so I bought the HP Spectre less than a month ago, and I have been having an issue. If I fully charge the laptop then unplug it for a day or two the battery percentage drops down to about 92-90%. I fully shut the machine down and it keeps doing it consistently. Is there a software fix for this because it'll be really irritating if there's a battery issue less than a month after purchasing it.

Welcome to HP Forums,

I see that your experiencing issue with the battery,
To get the answer to this question, It's totally normal to happen so.
- Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
While you respond to that, I recommend you to perform the following steps to isolate the issue and arrive at a fix:
Let's run the battery test using HP Support Assistant:
-
If you do not have HP Support Assistant, go to the HP Support Assistant website. In the HP Support Assistant page, click Download HP Support Assistant, then follow the on-screen instructions to download and install.
-
If you HP Support Assistant have, make sure you have the latest version. In Windows, open HP Support Assistant, click About, then click Check for latest version.
-
In Windows, search for and open HP Support Assistant.
-
Select the My devices tab, then select your PC from the device list.

-
Click the Troubleshooting and fixes tab, then select Battery Check.

-
Wait while the battery check completes.

HP Battery Check displays the results.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
