My Macbook Air M1 is used for a year and a couple of month, and batter is already 78% while showing service needed.
Is this normal 185 cycles only and battery already needs to be replaced?

185 cycles in over a year? That ain’t a lot, have you been limiting the charge?
No. This is not normal. See if apple will still cover it. They guarantee 1000 cycles @ 80% life. Not sure on their exact terms though so i dont know if its covered since you are out of the manufacturers warranty.
i’ve been seeing this a lot recently with the M1s… do you have applecare?
Use your mac as much as possible plugged with the app Aldente and make sure that the battery isn’t charging
