Hello
I have a clevo w150er but currently my battery does not charge past 52%
does anyone have this problem?

I dont have that here no, i have my clevo w150er for almost a year now and saw the wear lever is only 62160 mWh thats the 100% value and mine charges till 59108 mWh (100 %) now so have no idea why urs gets only 52%

Battery quality deteriorates over time and it's not uncommon to slowly lose battery capacity like what you're seeing. Only real way to fix it is to buy a new batter unfortunately.

Even at 7 months it's possible. If the battery was allowed to get too hot, deterioration. Too cold, you have some more. Allow the batter to discharge fully, even more. There are many things that can cause it. I've seen some reports of users that lose about 10% battery life in just the first week of usage.
To minimize this you don't want to let your battery drop below about 15% charge, don't leave on the charger when fully charged, remove the battery if it will be plugged in for long periods of time, and don't store the battery fully charged. It's a tricky thing to do perfectly, batteries are just prone to deteriorate due to what they are, essentially chemical reactions. -
I hate to detract from Derek's comments, but batteries aren't that sensitive. Only things that really could have dropped the charge that much is:
(1) Left in a very warm/hot environment for a long period of time (like a hot car, not anything to do with the laptop)
(2) Frequent use on battery. Just using it on battery will deteriorate it. If you use it a lot on battery, that is likely the cause
(3) Bad circuit in the battery
Just to be sure, run your battery down to 10% *slowly*, like just let it idle (don't let it sleep or hibernate) until it shuts down automatically at 10%. Then recharge it fully. Before you do so, download batterycare so you can use it to check and track your battery use and capacity.
Batteries will deteriorate over time whether you use them or not, but even if plugged in your laptop all the time and never used on battery, shouldn't degrade more than 10% annually. For example my NP9150 which I use occassionally on battery, and is nearly a year old has 7.25% battery wear.
