I don’t actually know how long the battery on this Mac lasts. (When they followed up at all I had to set up three different cases, because the first two senior advisors just dropped the case and never got back to me.) They were unable to resolve the issue, and kept bouncing it around to different senior advisors. This is for a laptop which, at the time it was sold (it’s about 18 months old), claimed “all day battery life.” I’ve kvetched to AppleCare about this, notably because Time Machine was using a lot of battery power, and I eventually gave up.
I have a 12″ MacBook, which is, right now, 93% charged, and it says that I have 4:43 remaining.
Here’s the problem: it’s never, ever been accurate. This is like being late for work and fixing it by breaking your watch. I never liked how the estimate claimed to be accurate down to the minute.Īnd John Gruber opined, on Daring Fireball: Otherwise, people will have to make their own estimates, which takes attention and is likely to be even less accurate. I tend to think that an inaccurate (but constantly updating) estimate is better than none. The reason for removing it is very simple: it wasn’t accurate.Īpple said the percentage is accurate, but because of the dynamic ways we use the computer, the time remaining indicator couldn’t accurately keep up with what users were doing. Over at The Loop, Jim Dalrymple has some info he got from Apple. So rather than fix it, they’ve removed it in the macOS 10.12.2 update. Apple says the battery estimate on laptops is inaccurate.
