How many additional watt-hours of battery would they have been able to fit in the laptop if they didn’t have the carve-outs for such dongles?
Say what you want about the MacBook’s lack of user-replacability, but it’s basically a tiny chip board about the same size as the iPhone’s, with a big box of batteries holding it.
- NikolaNovak 5y agoYeah I'm still waiting on the improved battery life that losing 3.5mm was supposed to give me. Not buying it. I'll take extra 2mm for 3.5mm and usb a.

- romwell 5y agoNot enough to justify cutting them out. (The answer is of the same level as question. If you want to imply that there's a significant gain, go prove it.)

Looking at the insides, I'm going to guess about 2 watt hours. Or they could have made it unmeasurably thinner. > Say what you want about the MacBook’s lack of user-replacability, but it’s basically a tiny chip board about the same size as the iPhone’s, with a big box of batteries holding it. Framework has 55 watt hours. The obsolete macbooks have 41. Both intel and M1 macbook pros have 58. Both intel and M1 macbook airs have 50. Sounds like that lack of user-replacability isn't necessary.
