ROG Phone 5 Battery issue

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: Asus ROG Phone 5 Global
Firmware Version: Latest
Rooted or not: No
Frequency of Occurrence: Regular
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
Battery mode: Dynamic
Refresh Rate: Auto
My new 3 days old ROG 5 is showing approx 6 hours of SOT with mixed usage and lasts for about 20 hours. So, I ran the AccuBattery Pro while charging the phone from 5% to 98%, and twice while charging from around 40% to 100%.
And here are the results, even after a total charge of 174%, it didn't charge to the capacity of 6000mAh.
Can anyone in the community perform the same test as well using AccuBattery Pro and see what the battery health and estimated capacity is?
For comparison I ran the same test on my almost 3 years old Oneplus 6T(2nd pic):

@Reaperzwolf and @thejus44 now that our phones are formatted and the battery backup is better than before, I request you guys to monitor the SOT and usage so that we can identify if the battery backup lasts.
Lets come up with a list of apps to run which which can replicate our usage and see what SOTs we get respectively.
I suggest each of us carry out this test at an interval of 1 week from our date of reset.
Let me know your thoughts on this.

Sounds good, I'm in. I can monitor the usage and SOT, but what exactly do you mean by coming up with a list of apps? So far, whatever I've been able to throw (and it's very varied) I've been able to make it last for quite some time, no issues. After reset that is.

By list of apps I mean, the apps which we will be using for that day, and all of us have to use it so that the variance in battery usage will be lower.
Example: I use apps like,
Insta, 9gag, Whatsapp, COD M, Netflix, and Youtube.
