Also, I would pay more attention to the amount of mAh taken out during discharge and what the termination voltage is.

During the charge cycle, the cell heats up near the end and most of that bit of charge is not being stored in the battery but dissipated as heat. So a good percentage of the mAh the charger claims is being put back in the battery at the end of the charge is not really going into the battery after all.
