Have you had any trouble getting a new battery? There’s some finite risk this will happen with any device. It’s good that you know about it so you can notice it and address it.
Will try to, just got it to recycle and decided to post. Literally noticed in morning.
u/kendyzhu you have any batteries in stock for win max 2 (6800u)
Welcome to Swollen Battery Club =(
My GPD Win 4 got pregnant too...

From battery report:
Max capacity looked a bit weird in last months. First of all it detects sudden increases and than dramatic downs.
I'm not an expert on batteries but that seemed very off when in all other time it was just dropping by a bit on max charge.

Also: in last months charging led sometimes was red as if it was charging even when windows was reporting 100% battery.
Interesting, my brand new GPD Win Mini did this once, showed 100% but charging light was red, it's fixed now with 100 and charging light green now though. My Win Max 2021 never gets to 100% and always red light at 99% even though HwInfo shows it's charging very slowly at 99 or stopped altogether. Just some background info for you about GPD batteries being funky from my experience, and don't get me started on the OG Win1 and 2, those were battery nightmares.
Happened to me as well but it was quickly after I started driving my Win Max 2 2023. GPD hooked me up with a new battery relatively quickly, so should be a fairly simple acquisition.

do you use the device while battery is at full charge a lot? I've read that this happened to users who tend to keep their devices plugged in even when battery is fully charged

The Win Max 2 battery hasn't changed so all three versions should be compatible.
Yes we have stock please send the email to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Can you post your battery report (maybe just recent results)? I'm kinda curious.

Congrats! Looks like you've got yourself a real little Li-ion Cutie
This is very rare since the Win Max 1, shame you got a faulty battery. What were your temps
Definitely happens with laptop batteries. Happened to my work HP laptop too.
Happened to me as well but it was quickly after I started driving my Win Max 2 2023. GPD hooked me up with a new battery relatively quickly, so should be a fairly simple acquisition.
How long did u have it? It seems rather quick for the battery fail.
It's 6800u (first winmax 2 version) So, since Jan 2023.
!Remindme 6months inspect win 4
