    1. Always use a case just like every phone.
    2. Battery never drop below 50%.
    3. Always charge until 80% Max.
    4. Clean your MacBook always.
    5. Not using it.

    the setting in the battery menu, Optimized Battery Charging, will stop your macbook charging at 80% until you tell it to fully charge it, and when it reaches 80 the laptop switches to AC power only. when you're using your macbook as your primary computer at a desk, this will help the battery last a lot longer over time.

    Silver is the only option in which what you see see is the actual color of the material, aluminum. All the other colors are covering the aluminum, including starlight. That's why, if you scratch them, even if it's just by using the ports, you'll always see silver/aluminum under. Summing up, in the long term, the safest choice is Silver.

    I really don't think Macs, now that we are in 2023, will overcharge. Ive seen for myself that when your Mac hits 100% charge, it actually stops charging and uses power from Its adapter. This can be proved by going to the system report (Ventura) and under power It will say charging: no, and also I've seen it discharge if it needs to down to 90%.

      Then when it drops a tad below 100% it will start charging again, keeping the charging level at 100% is not a good idea and will be detrimental to battery longevity. use Al dente to set the charging limit to 50% if you use it like a desktop.

And all other options were in premium so i delete the app....

      @@ashankhan1188 I would just let your Mac handle it, remember that the apple engineers who put your Mac together made it designed to be plugged in at 100% and whatever other types of use. I would just use it normally and not worry about the 20-80 rule and maintaining the battery because in the end you will have to replace the battery even if you did the 20-80 rule. Thanks

    One thing that troubles me, is when a MacBookPro is treated like a desktop and is connected to a display and placed on a vertical stand.
    That’s when I’m worried about the upcoming heat. I’m afraid that when exposed to long periods of time like so, it could damage the circuit connections. I would really like to know what’s your opinion about such a situation and generally about vertical stands!

    So much conflicting advice on if you should leave the charger in.
    Some videos say you should leave in the charger to slow down your power cycles.
    Equally as many videos say you should plug out your charger to keep your battery active.
    Which method do I pick? :/
    From personal experience with my old ASUS laptop, I leave my charger in all the time. After about 6-8 years of use, my total battery life is extremely poor at around 1 hour 45 minutes. However, my battery life wasn't very high to begin with. According the ChatGPT, my battery life should be around 5 hours.
    Also, I checked my charge cycles. Seems I have only used a bit over 300 charge cycles.
    So even my own experience is giving me a contradicting solution.
    From my experience, it seems that leaving my charger in all the time has resulted in me having used much less charge cycles than expected, but also having much less battery health than I would expect to have after using that number of charge cycles.

    I've always used a silicone keyboard cover and there is no moisture accumulation lol. continue to do these things folks. your macbook isn't meant to last any longer than 10 years. your disk will go to shit before any of these other afflictions even matter. batteries can also be replaced - and I have replaced my own battery in my macbook air twice without issues.

      Nah, that will still cause excessive wear. It's best to use the laptop as little as possible. For those new to computers, I would recommend using it for a few minutes a day at the absolute maximum, but for more experienced users, going a few months at a time without ever turning on the laptop will be better for longevity.

      Some Mac users are just unbelievably stupid. Putting a thick rubber case, screen protector (for a non touch screen laptop!?), a keyboard/palmrest cover, and a trackpad cover to prevent wear is just paranoia to the next level. The irony of making a computer ugly and cheap to prevent a few scratches that a bit of caution will prevent just fine.

      That is not at all how it works lol leaving a battery at 100% is terrible for them if your MacBook stays at 80% it's alright but if you use your phone plugged in while charging at 100% unless it stops using battery power which I don't think any do you are still getting battery cycles worse ones infact because 100% is tough on lipo batteries.
      And gaining battery health is impossible the reason that happened is a software update or recalibration
