    Hi everyone, I actually opened my mid-2014 MBP to remove dust from the inside, and found this.. Do you think it's still safe to use, or should I replace it asap ? The battery condition is still pretty good though. TIA for your answers !

    Replace MacBook battery before it becomes "vintage"

    Last week I went to the Apple Store to have the battery of my iPhone 7+ replaced. After three years it was still working perfectly fine, but the battery capacity was down to 81% and clearly not lasting very long anymore.

    Rare damage without compensation

    I own a MacBook Air that I have owned for about 5 years now. It's a 2011 that I purchased refurbished. I bought it in 2014. In 2015 it was 3 years old.

    I’ve had it turned on since iOS 13 came out almost two weeks ago and this feature hasn’t worked at all. How can it possibly take this long for the phone to learn charging habits?

    2011 MBP won't start or wake up

    I have a 2011 MBP that I can't get to "turn on". I had it open and running normally about a week ago. Since then, it's been on my desk with lid closed (presumably hibernating).

    Weird battery cycle count

    A few days ago I received a new battery from iFixit for my Mid-2013 11" MBA. After I installed it, I've done the calibration procedure and did a SMC-reset. Unfortunately...without plugging the MacBook to a energy source. Stupid. From this moment on, my MacBook Air keeps forgetting it's own...

    iPhone SE (2016) To iPhone SE users. Was 12.4.1 better in terms of battery compared to 13? If so. How many minutes /hours extra did you get?

    See title. I came from iOS 10.3.3 and 13 drains my battery really fast. So I might downgrade to 12.4.1. Also, another question. How does one reset the screen-on time and screen-off time numbers? Do I have to charge it to 100% for the numbers to become 0?
