Has the author not used the m series Macs? Standby battery life is the best it has ever been in my time using laptops.
- zer00eyz 2y agoApples making a shit ton of money selling all of us expensive ram upgrades that we happily buy. IF the authors Mac is managed by corporate overlords he might be right about the battery. They are stuffing so much security and monitoring shit on there now that I feel like I'm running a spyware and toolbar riddled xp box. Even an older Mac without the corporate crapware is snappy.
- cqqxo4zV46cp 2y agoYeah. This is absurd. And, as if the reason for this “degradation” isn’t for user-centric functionally, and that the functionality can’t be turned off. This is just “old man yells at cloud”.
- sholladay 2y agoAgreed. Even knowing that, just yesterday I was surprised to find my M1 MacBook Pro still had 28% battery after more than a month on standby. When I closed the lid it was at 60%, so that’s less than 1% per day. Very happy with it.
- kjkjadksj 2y agoI use an m series mac. Half the time I come to it the next day to open the lid its already warm. No clue what is keeping this computer out of sleep.
