    Big Sur Breathing New Life Into 2015 MacBook?

    Hi all So I have the entry-level 2015 12-inch MacBook, and in recent years (and even up to the recent dev betas of Big Sur) it really has been a struggle to maintain some semblance of good performance. I think this was largely due to my use of Chrome and other non-Apple apps, which often...

    12 Mini Users - Normal Overnight Drain?

    Hi all - have been absolutely loving my 12 Mini overall, and throughout the day, I’m almost always near a charging cable, so I haven’t even really had any battery gripes. The main difference i’ve noticed comes when I wake up in the morning. I don’t charge overnight (just top off through the...

    Battery capacity details no longer available on M1 Macbooks ???

    It appears the mAh battery capacity information is no longer showing in either System Report nor third party battery apps ? Do you think Apple has purposely hidden this info or is it something about M1 chips that doesn't allow this info to be available ???

    Other Battery - Why does video playback last longer than web browsing ?

    Iphone 12 estimates 17 hours of Video browsing and yet if I get 6 to 8 hours of OST for web browsing, that is considered acceptable. How does video streaming eat up less battery than just web browsing ? I noticed the M1 Macbooks are the same with 20 hour video playback vs 17 hour standard use.

    Heya! I'm not that type of technic guy but I tracked my full charge capacity with coconut battery as soon as I got my iPhone 12 Pro. I had a full charge capacity of 2922 mAh and after only 12 days it's 2877 mAh, so I lost 45 mAh in only 12 days. This isn't maybe a big thing now, but for me...

    What's your first charge?

    How do you guys charge your brand new iPhone 12's right now or when you get a new one? Do you charge it till 100% before use. Do you let it drop to 0% after a full charge. Or what is the best in your opinion?

    My battery was swollen so I shipped my 2015 15" MBP to Apple Japan for a battery replacement. They replaced that and the top keyboard case too. When it came back I opened the bottom case to have a look and I found two rubbery things inside (see below), which were not there before. They fell...

    iPhone XS Why are iPhone batteries so bad?

    I love everything about Apple but their battery life is shockingly bad. Are the batteries much smaller than equivalent Android phones? Or is this more a software issue? When I had an iPhone 4 it would last up to 4 days! My iPhone XS needs charging daily...

    Battery Insanity

    I've stumbled into some minor obsessive insanity regarding the best battery health practices for my new 2020 MBP 13-inch. This machine replaces a 7-year-old late-2013 retina 13" that was always plugged in when not in use, including overnight. Those practices run contrary to much of what I'm...
