On my base 14" MBP, the system report info shows a "no" in the the automatic brightness line. However, automatic brightness is enabled and it works fine. Wondering if just a software bug. I'm on macOS 12.2.1 (21D62). Anyone else getting the same results? Here is a screenshot of what it shows:
According to notebook check thorough review :
The full package power is just 7 W (4 W for the CPU core) in single-core tests and just 24.7 W (with ~21 W for the CPU cores) in multi-tests. However, it looks like the CPU clusters consume the same amount of power as in the M1 Pro with 10 cores...
