Hello, I bought a base model 2022 13" Macbook Air in August 2023. It’s been 3 months and there has been zero problem till now. But, today my laptop shut down at 20% and wouldn’t start till connected to a power source. I charged it till 25% and unplugged it. I waited until it got to 20%, and it shut down again, and the exact same scenario happened. Can anyone help me with this?
I use AlDente regularly and use my laptop with an external monitor.
Yup, I use my laptop ~90% of the time with an external monitor. The macOS “optimized battery charging” feature does a perfectly fine job of keeping my battery at 80% charge.
I know it doesn’t work for everyone, but it works fine for me and I don’t have to worry about the issues that AlDente can cause if you avoid the “IMPORTANT” maintenance step.
