I am wondering if anyone been in a similiar situation.

I got the S4 some years ago initially wore it but put it away in the shelf not long after, only recently I started wearing it again.

When put away Battery was at 94%, not sure of cycle count. I started wearing it again in the begining of august, mainly to track sleep. Today the battery is at 79% and at 309 cycles.

Considering Apple heavily advertises Watch to last 80% for 1000 cycles, i feel pretty scammed.

Could I have case about the relation of cycle count and battery capacity? Free replacement maybe?

Thanks everyone

You let a lithium ion battery fall into a deep discharge for nearly 5 years? Is that what you did? If so, congratulations you scammed yourself.
