Best battery brand for pre-Retina MacBook Pro ?
Hi there, I'm on the market (again!) for a 2012 MacBook Pro (pre-Retina) battery. The current one, a third-party manufacturer bought from eSourceParts (a local retailer, so no customs fee), failed after 15 total cycles, 1.5 year after manufacturing. It still holds about 90% charge according...- Cubytus

Just curious how is everyone else; 2021 model 14" / 16" battery doing so far for day one owners. I think the rate at 1000 charge cycles is a joke or my battery is really just bad batch on release? No where close to 500 cycles let alone 1000 cycles rated, with the mix system report and terminal...- TinyMito

Apple Music This isn’t normal, right?
15p gets quite warm while just streaming music playing through its speakers. None of my previous phones ever got even remotely warm playing tunes. It’s as warm as it is playing games. I didn’t want to add on to the heat complaints, but this is weird imo. I wish I had screenshots of how my 11 did...- Ericdjensen

(sigh) fried my 2015 MBP
Got the iFixit kit to replace the battery in my Mid-2015 Retina MBP, which was a workhorse. I did the full disassemble as their instructions recommended so I wouldn't get acetone on the motherboard; as many know, it's a real pain to unstick the glued-down battery cells. Finally reassembled it...- JayKay514

iPhone 15 Pro What phone did you upgrade from and have you noticed a difference?
Personally I had an iPhone 13 128gb and have chose the iPhone 15 Pro. The camera is night and day and I do really notice the smooth scrolling from the 120hz display. AOD is pointless imo, but I like the dynamic island. Also my eyes don’t feel as jaded reading in dark mode at night. Battery is... -
