[size=+3]Xtar INR18650 2600mAh (Cyan) 2020[/size]
Official specifications:
This is high current cells with fairly low capacity.
The two cells do not match, the A cell has lower capacity and handles less current. I stop the test a bit early at high current due to the cell temperature.
With these charge curves it looks like one of the cells are faulty.
[size=+3]Conclusion[/size]
One of the cells looks fairly good, the other do not.
This makes these cells a bad choice.
[size=+3]Notes and links[/size]
