For every person who uses Apple technology, and in particular a MacBook, it is very important that the device works properly and the battery life does not interfere with everyday activities. Apple assures that the MacBook battery is designed for 1000 full recharge cycles. Subsequently, it provides up to 80% of the original capacity. When we notice that the battery life has decreased significantly, we often do not pay attention and increasingly leave it on charge. But not everyone knows that long-term use of a MacBook with a faulty or damaged battery can negatively affect the operation of your device and lead to fraught consequences. A worn out or faulty battery can swell and damage the keyboard or touchpad on your device. Based on this, it is important to understand that it is not worth bringing the MacBook battery life to the last stage. In order to find out the number of recharge cycles on your device, you just need to go to the power properties of your MacBook.

How to find out the number of recharge cycles on a Macbook Air/Pro?

By contacting our Service Center, you can get advice regarding your device, and if the problem is not only in the battery, our specialist will conduct a more detailed diagnosis of the device. Replacing the battery on a MacBook takes an average of 40 minutes and is a very complex job that requires special skills of a craftsman. The battery replacement operation itself is performed under special conditions. Doing this at home is highly not recommended.
How to extend the life and preserve the battery on your MacBook?
It is very important to fully charge your MacBook the first time you turn it on after replacing the battery. Then you should charge your device until it is completely discharged. Such actions should be repeated at least once a month. To ensure longer battery life, Apple says you should keep all the latest software updates. Another important factor is to use the device in comfortable temperature conditions. Like other Apple devices, in cold weather the device often turns off, even when the battery is charged. As with other Apple devices, it is very important to use the original charger. It is also very harmful for the battery to remain in a completely discharged state for a long time. But do not forget that you should use the device in a way that is convenient for you. When your device is low, put it on charge, as soon as the indicator shows 100%, try to turn it off and work on battery power.
