If I unplug from the charger as soon as the check-mark appears, the battery symbol quickly drops to about 80%-90% after I turn the KT on. If I leave it another hour on the charger, the battery remains at 100% after I turn it on.
It may be a longevity feature. My samsung laptop has an option to charge upto only 80% to increase battery life.
