You might have just grabbed it while it was discharging.
It will cycle. Once it hits it's discharge percentage, it will charge back up to 100% slowly.
If you've ever unplugged your computer and it immediately starts reporting that it's at 95% instead of 100% that's why
Plug it in and just check on it every 30min or so. Valve released a statement explaining it.
This is something that's been on my mind as well (because I've had a few other expensive things crap out due to battery issues), and I've consequently been closely watching my battery usage (by having the second level performance overlay active) while I play. My battery health is reported as 96%, so I'm good there.
If I unplug the charger and play for however long it takes to run the battery down by a good bit--it varies by how heavily the game leans on the hardware--and then plug it back in, it'll charge normally until it hits around 92-95%. At that point, the charging will slow down steadily--I can see the charging capacity decrease in the battery section of the Deck's "..." menu--until it comes to a complete stop at around 96-98%. My battery will report as full, and I can play for hours plugged in with only a minute drop in the displayed charge percentage.
So for whatever my untrained and basic observation is worth, it looks like it's working as intended.
