2020年11月発売。MacBook Pro 13インチモデルは、8コアのCPUと8コアのGPUを搭載したAppleのArmベースのM1 SoC。(モデルA2338 / EMC 3578、Thunderbolt 3ポート2基搭載)

46% battery in my M1 with light use, what went wrong?

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get some perspective on what might have caused my battery to degrade this much.

Model: MacBook Pro 13" M1 (2020)

I bought it on the second day after launch and maxed it out.

Mostly web design work, around 5 hours on weekdays. I’m usually in Safari/Chrome/Edge, some Photoshop, and After Effects only once every few months. It’s never really overheated, and in real life the battery still lasts over a day, which is why the “maintenance” warning caught me off guard.

Battery health:

  • macOS says 62%
  • CoconutBattery says 46%

I stayed on Sequoia 15.6 for about a year, then updated about 4 months ago to 15.7.2 (24G325).

  • Usually kept it between 20–80%
  • Never left it charging overnight
  • Plug it in when doing heavier tasks
  • I Always used it indoors, never really traveled with it
  • Surge protector
  • 25°C and 40°C all year but I only use it inside, AC on

I honestly planned to use this machine for 10 years. Performance-wise it still feels basically new, so I’m confused about what I did “wrong” with the battery—especially since my iPhone and iPad from around the same time are still sitting around 80%.

I’m already planning to bite the bullet and pay for an official battery replacement, but I wanted to ask here first:

Does this kind of degradation seem normal for an M1 Mac after this many years?Could heat or being charged in a lot of times (+500s) have sped things up?I

Thanks for any thoughts or experiences.

Sadly, cycle count is not the only way to measure batteries life. Age and over tethering to AC outlets. Here the battery is 5 years old, if you tend to leave the system plugged in (on or off) most of the time then the battery doesn't get a chance to discharge (which from your description is not an issue). It's also been found not exceeding 80% charge offers better life. Review your battery's setting to see if you can set it or download the App which can override the OS. Lastly, you could have just gotten a weak battery🙁.

Thank you so much!

Yes mine does have the 80% setting and I have an Automation notification set up too, my 2020 ipad is still going strong using the same kind of care/surge protector. Thank you for the guide

@beaglecoconut I have seen batteries die on MUCH lower cycles, 5 years is a long time for any re-chargeable battery, 80% charging or full charging makes for no real difference, just how it is.

Hi,

Apple says the a battery can last up to 500-1000 cycles and most MacBooks go beyond the 1000 cycle mark and still having a decent amount of health in the battery.

But

There are some exceptions an some batteries fail before the 500 cycle mark without a clear explanation.

You are better if you replace your battery to avoid complications like swollen battery or further degradation , when your battery does not hold any charge and the Mac turns off when unplugged.
