Hi!

I bought a MacBook Pro 2016 non touchbar few days ago. The battery life is not as good as I were excepting. I have found some informations about the battery on my Mac in the system-info. ¨ full battery capacity 4745 mAh. The apple website says that the battery capacity in MacBooks pro without touch bar is 54,5 . Do you think guys that it may cause this battery issue ? Should I return my Mac ?

The battery capacity listed in system profiler is measured in mAh (milliamp hours). The battery capacity reported on the apple website is in watt hours. They are not directly comparable. Your mac is probably fine.

When your machine is new it uses power for things like indexing that it won't use later. If you want to see where your battery power is going, open up the Activity Monitor (Launchpad > Other) and look under the Energy tab. See what activities are using the power up. You should get excellent battery life once the machine has settled in.
