    I’m convinced that apples laptop battery saver feature that’s AI powered and decides when to charge above 80% vs just letting you set it to 80% and manually set it to 100% when needed is to cause the batteries to die sooner, because ITS GOD AWFUL AT DOING ITS JOB PROPERLY.

      I have a Dell Laptop (Latitude 7390) where I changed in the bios some option to maximize battery longevity and 6 years later it still lasts quite a lot.

        I have a POS HP from nine years ago and the battery still lasts two hours. Just depends on the battery size I guess
