Hi, I installed and update the macOS Big Sur latest available beta and after installation is done, It is showing me battery service required warning in my battery icon, My mac is new and it's been hardly 5-6 months and used casually.

Hello everyone , apple release a recall for 2016 and 2017 mbp for the battery issue February 9th 2021. You can get the service all around the world and replace the battery for free of charge , it does not matter where did you purchase your mbp. I wish to hear that the recall will cover all mbp without any year selection !! may they can understand lather on it is important not to loose their reliable customers that loosing some money.. Regards
Exact same issue, charge cannot pass 1%, 2020 macbook air with M1 chip. Reset PRAM didn't work for me
"Fix" I have a 2016 MacBook Pro with 358 cycles mine did the same after update-
Here is a Fix that has so far worked
Reboot
hold
Option Command P and R
wait for the second chime and you should be good to go

Big Sur Battery Service Reccomended Fix
This is a bug, I have fixed it 3 times with the SMC and PRAM reset- Ill post how to do it on my YT channel at my name in the bio.

I have the same issue, mine is 2016 MacBook Air, after updated macOS Big Sur, battery is significantly reduced. Will contact Apple now.
Same here
Model: MBP 2015 13" What: battery died after installing Big Sir, service recommended. Unplugging shuts off computer. Returning to older OS doesn't fix it.
Did anyone try replacing the battery and keeping it on Catalina? I don't want to waste money on a battery if the problem might lie in the circuitry or if it will just die again.
Already tried SMC and PRAM and all the other standard fixes of course.
Update on my previous post (one above) Got a (fake) battery and installed it, works like a charm so far.
I did use an OEM charger before though, which might've caused the defect. Switched over to an official charger just to be sure. Did anyone else here use a fake charger, might be the cause of this?
Is it the same with macOS Monterey?
