m1? what is total battery usage from 100 to 20%? You should get more than 10 hour

Yes... M1
I rarely use the laptop continously... normally spread 2-3 days (since i'll be using my desktop when at home)
Roughly calculate, i'm getting more than 10 hours.

this wont be accurate, try use till 20%

Are there any way to detect? Or i need to manually keep record on how long i'm using the laptop?

fed up with the stock in Malaysia .. I just order MBA M1 from apple store instead (and used my sis's email for education price)

now shoppee /lazada seller sell 4.2

Only gold colour for base specs no?

I dun wan this colour lol

now majority shop only got gold color.

tbh i feel this to be fishy/odd

too many coincidences

Probably the least wanted color therefore excess stocks compared to the more popular space grey and then silver. Nothing fishy...

curious im powering my m1 with lg usb c, does it mean in longer terms my battery will be depleted quicker as i use it as charger as well?

u can download AlDente to stop the charging at 50-60% if ur laptop is plugged in almost all the time ..

lol..cute app name..

oh thank you so much for this, guess the 3 months of the ownership had cause my battery wear rather quicker then, i recalled there's an app to trace the battery health, not sure if you know, as i've forgotten it. but lately mac os also have the capability to hold the battery from charging, but this only happen if i not mistaken on my 2nd month of ownership.

Mac’s own battery optimisation stops at 80% battery, cant go lower

AlDente can go any % you want. I’m only using the free version

thank you, they said chrome is the culprit of m1 mba 8gb is sluggish so i've moved on to other browser like brave, yet i still face sluggishness, even though its not as bad as chrome but yet its still sluggish, does it mean i have to transfer all my google ads, facebook ads, google sheets, google data studio, sharepoint, and office 365 to only use safari in order to avoid sluggishness? but i would need chrome extensions to do debug of website tags and codes which chrome extensions available for now.

Chrome is known to consume alot of resources, especially if you open lots of tabs

Have you tried Firefox though?

Does anyone know how to prevent or decrease battery drain when MBA is put to sleep? I always turn off wifi and bluetooth before sleeping but the battery still drains.
