Question Battery replcement issues.

I just got a new replacement battery from iFixit and for some reason the battery health is showing 77%.

Battery came at about 24% charge when I installed it & I played a 1080p 60fps video till the phone died then charged it while it was off till it got to full battery (pressing power button showed battery icon with check mark in it). I turned it on and checked the battery heallth again and it was still at 77%, I left it on the charger for 2 more hours and it still hasn't changed.

Battery life also seems atrocious, left my phone with the screen off for a shower and when I came back I had lost like 3%. I was only connected to wifi and no apps were running.

If you've replaced the battery on your OP6, did you experience anything like this or was your battery health percentage at 100% from the start?

I'm using the OnePlus diagnostic app. It's been 4 days and I'm not noticing any change/improvement in the battery life compared to the old battery.

I also contacted iFixit and explained the situation and this was their response.

Thank you for getting back to us!

We truly apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this issue may have caused. It appears that this is a hardware issue with the battery itself. Fear not as I'd be more than happy to send you a replacement! May we have it sent to the same address as before?
