How to keep a healthy MacBook battery?

The battery life in the new MacBook Pro or MacBook Air is limited, but you can maximize their usage time in just a few steps.

Battery cycle

Each battery has a defined number of cycles or cycles. “Your battery design can retain up to 80% of its original capacity in 1000 full charge cycles,” Apple said of the MacBook battery.

Whether it's a MacBook, an iPhone or any other device, the battery is a physical and chemical process. How it is used affects how it works and how long it lasts.

For example, the latest MacBook Pro 13-inch model is rated at 1,000 cycles. It doesn't sound like a lot, but if you run out of battery and charge the battery every day - including weekends - you will have nearly three years.

You can check the battery status of your MacBook Pro. Hold down the Option key on your keyboard and select System Info from the Apple menu. However, this does not really provide you with accurate wear and tear.

Scroll the hardware list to the section labeled Power.

There, you will see health information, it will tell you the current number of cycles, and hope to have a status: normal.

Save battery life

You bought this laptop and there is no need to try to save battery life by not using it. However, there are steps you can take to maximize battery life.

Apple recommends that you always update to the latest version of macOS. In addition to general advice, you can make specific choices for certain settings.

The biggest consumption for most people is the screen. The brightness of those 400, 450 or 500 nits depends on the model and requires some power, so dimming the screen can reduce the brightness. It extends battery life by extending battery life.

Suitable storage

If you know you will not use it for a long time, please turn it off - but if the battery is 0%, please do not store it for a long time. It should be charged to 80% and then idle.

0% of the battery is not completely depleted. The battery requires some stored energy for both chemical health and start-up power. The idle battery loses power due to the system clock or time.

However, most of the time, the battery seems to be dead, but it is not the case, it just does not have enough power to power the device. Although this means you are likely to be able to recover it and let the MacBook plug in for a while to charge. Do not store the battery for a long period of time, because this deep discharge is not good for the battery.
