    iPhone 14/Plus Why does the iPhone 14 have longer battery life vs 13?

    M1 16" MBP w/ 65w monitor - OK?

    I've got a M1 16" MBP that I currently use with the Dell S2722QC monitor. I like to minimize the number of wires on my desk so I only have the monitor plugged into my laptop. However, it just occurred to me that the monitor I use provides 65w. Is this a problem? Will it damage my MBP battery?

    PSA: Do NOT buy NinjaBatt branded batteries: random shutdowns & no safe sleep

    I purchased a A1618 battery for my 2015 15 MBP and it was a nightmare from day one. Once installed, the computer would shut down at random percentages even after multiple battery calibrations and SMC/PRAM resets it still acts up. Even when installed in a MPB with an iGPU only it still shuts down...
