Mac OS Big Sur Battery Drain Issue

Well I can see considerable battery drain in the MacBook. I own a 2015 MacBook 12 inch and trust me battery is losing its potential very fast. I hope there comes a fix for this issue if apple can update.

With a bug fix.

MacBook, macOS 11.3

The machine in question is 6 years old. Batteries are considered Consumable Product and as such over time the Capacity will degrade. That is unavoidable. It is suggested to open System Information and check on left the Battery and see the number of Full Battery Cycles and or any message saying Service Battery. Should that appear - time to do so and arrange for an evaluating by Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider


If the battery health is poor - not Apple Software fix can bring it back
