How many charge cycles is each MacBook rated for?

The maximum charge cycle count Apple gives for the battery in each of the 64 MacBooks on this site, grouped by line with the newest first.

Apple’s page “Determine battery cycle count for Mac laptops” lists each laptop by name with a Maximum Cycle Count, and says the battery is considered consumed once it reaches that limit and is designed to retain up to 80% of its original charge capacity at its maximum cycle count. Apple names a model by size and year, so one row can cover several chips; the footnote says which row a Mac is read from. Desktop Macs have no battery and are not listed.
