With the iPhone 15 series, I did an experiment and kept my iPhone's Charge Limit set at 80 percent for an entire year. It provided an interesting look at the impact of charge limits on battery longevity, so I decided to repeat it for the iPhone 16 line.
Since September 2024, my iPhone 16 Pro Max has been limited to an 80 percent charge, with no cheating. As of today, my battery's maximum...

Junk keyboards = laptop that is not to be trusted = Don’t buy at any price
Apple no longer makes laptops worth buying. Let’s hope that changes in 2020. (And not just the keyboards, but the junk camera on MBA, etc.) Oh, and get Catalina to be a stable operating system. The real reason we buy Macs is for MacOS, and it’s no longer good. Be a shame to finally, after years of stubbornness from Apple to get the hardware fixed only to be still unable to buy because MacOS is no longer able to be trusted with your workflow.
It’s amazing that using old Mac hardware and old MacOS is now the smart pro move.
no, just a lot of frustrated Apple users who are standing up for themselves.
If you don’t trust the screaming hoards of angry customers, look at laptop sales numbered.
Timmy probably thought it was really funny that so many people had faulty keys and the amount they had to pay for key repairs. That’s why he took forever to acknowledge the issue. But he is still laughing as he is killing it in dongle revenue.
Maybe reason the launch of the 16" machine is delayed is because they know nobody will buy a 2019 once the new machine launches?
As those who have been watching this for awhile will no doubt recall, there was a time, not so long ago, when B&H was selling new 2017s, 2018s, and 2019s side by side.
Part of the reason was that Apple hates to give a significant discount to move product. But at the same time, the $300 off on MBP has been with us since last Christmas!
Guess what? I still havent bought one. And i wont, until it had a usable keyboard. I dont even mean sticking keys...because to me, the 2019 keyboard feels like every key is stuck!
