I bought my wife a refurbished 512GB unit as soon as I heard they were available. It was delivered about a week later on a Thursday and immediately, we noticed battery life was very poor compared to mine.

Desktop mode showed battery health at 17%, and so by that Saturday, it was packed up to be sent back. Ended up going with a new unit instead, so your story sounds a lot like ours, sadly.
