does the screen of your MBP M2 14" yellowish? (night shift & true tone are turned off)

Is this supposed to be a screen defect?

I did went for comparison, with 2 devices at both Machines and HN
- the one @ machine is 2023 model and the display is quite similar
- the one @ HN is older generation, it's apparently mine is more yellowish.

I went to the ifix but turned out it's already closed and I'm lazy to go to another ifix which is quite far from where i stay. So, i've decided to not pursue further ...;/

Hi,

Just asking, if I am using my friend kid education ID to purchase MBP 13, can the purchase invoice issue under my name ?
It's for income tax purposes, actually.

And, is it better to purchase online or the physical store?

Btw, this is my 1st time purchasing Apple laptop.

Thanks.

after shutdown? I do notice sometimes it'll drop few % after turned on the next day. smart charging is on, so currently it doesn't charge up around 80% and on hold the charging (using adapter power source)

It's for income tax purposes, actually. <---- Yes, can be issued under your name. During the checkout process, you'll notice you'll need to fill up a name for invoice/billing purposes if i'm not mistaken. If it never happens, then you can stop the last step to check out.

Want to ask what's with the green vomit face icon for the thread? I thought Mac lovers should use the love icon.

That's not the point or intention.

The system should not consume when it's asleep.

Moreover, if keep on plug in and out;
1) It will be a hassle
2) The port will wear out faster
3) Cost more resource

Hey all, been considering getting MacBook, this would be my first Mac laptop. Always been a windows users, I’m just wondering the durability of the laptops. Cause I know Apple tends to have extremely high repair price if there’s an issue.
