    Facebook in Safari and battery drain? (tbMBP 13)

    May sound odd, but is it possible that Facebook in Safari is causing some additional battery drain? The last two days I've been using the laptop a lot. Yesterday I started about 11:00am and went pretty much until 9:00 last night (with periods of closing it here and there). Maybe 8-9 hours of...

    I have a macbook pro 15" late 2016 (512gb ssd and radeon pro 455) for about a month, and since the beginning I've been experiencing a significative battery draining when on sleep mode.

    Hi there, I am experiencing some issues since the latest release (10.1., the just recently released minor as of 10/31/16 update didn't change anything) Some of my system services are constantly using my locations, which seems to drain my battery heavily.

    Battery Life after WatchOS 3 Upgrade

    Anyone else getting worse than average battery life after the WatchOS 3 upgrade. I used to, at least, get a day out of it -- about 16 hours. Now, it's about 2 hours less. Anyone know of any apps that are real battery hogs? Just wondering.

    Sorry if this has been asked already, but searching gave me no hits. It has been my experience that upgrading an iPhone beyone one major revision isn't wise. Usually battery life takes a major hit or performance takes a dive. Are there any feelings on this yet? Does iOS 10 turn the 6+ into a...

    iPhone Here's why battery on the 6 Plus has taken a dive with 9.3.1..

    As per title, this is - I'm convinced - the reason for the dwindling battery life on 9.3.1. I'd be very interested to see if it is the same for you.. Just to give you some context - I had the original 6 Plus and then migrated to the 6S Plus back in September. Been using both with Apple Watch...

    6s Plus Battery Life is a disaster. Please help!

    I've had my 6s Plus for 3 weeks now, and the battery life is very poor. When I first got it, I did notice a little bit of a battery drain, but I was told on another forum that it's normal for this to happen and to wait for a couple of days. I've waited for 3 weeks now, and the battery life has...
