I’m only getting around 6 hours of battery life for my late 2016 mbp 13 with touchbar on moderate use. Been using it for 3 weeks now. Bought brand new from All IT as it was on discount. On papers stated up to 10 hours of battery life. I only use it mostly lite browsing and php development. Battery status shows normal. Battery cycle is only 11. Brightness is only half Bluetooth is ofg and only on wifi.

Some pdf readings, excel + spotify and dropbox syncing all the time in background.

I see.. thank you so much for the information, will take this as consideration when deciding Apple Care..

QUOTE(soonwai @ Oct 27 2017, 10:25 PM) Dun understand. Why not buy from Machines, etc... and activate on the spot? Same thing no? And you'll have physical proof of purchase. Or buy from forumer here at a discount. If ready stock, you can activate it immediately. if they stock it, you be surprised most of them don't.
