Msi laptop battery capacity sudden decrease

Question

I bought my msi laptop about a year and a half ago, these days i noticed a sudden battery drain, if not on power saving it shows an estimated time of 15m or so, with nothing running in the background, i take a good care of my laptop and I'm worried cuz battery report came back kinda bad, so is it time for battery change or is there's something i can do to reduce this fast drain.

Ps: on power saving mode it lasts about an hour and a half barely.

Hello josef thanks for the reply, i just wanted to update something because yesterday i calibrated the battery and the full charge capacity increased to 40,000mWh, but today when i opened it it suddenly dropped out from 59% to 0%, and before that when calibrating "a regular one not from the system itself" it lasted about 2.5 hours from 100 to 0 while giving a wrong estimated usage time sometimes.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Yasm

Just battery needs to be replaced, in the first screenshot you can see that the current capacity is just approx 1/4 of the full capacity

This is why the battery only last 15 min when you're not using power saving mode
