The NEW MacBooks Are WEIRD

Welcome back everyone, as most of you know, Apple has pushed out these new MacBooks, the 14 inch and the 16 inch ones, and here’s the thing, these MacBooks have a ton of capability, and they are pretty much the perfect MacBooks you can buy, but there is one area where I’m kind of having a hard time understanding. The funny thing is, it’s not even the notch, it’s not anything related to it, the specific thing that’s kind of weird that I haven’t really heard too many people talk about is actually the battery life. Here’s the thing, I’ve been using my M1 MacBook Pro, the 13 inch one, for like seven months full time, and I’ve had a great time with it, the battery life is amazing, very little to complain about, now, this 14 inch MacBook I was planning on switching over to it, I probably will, I don’t think this is going to be a big issue for me.

I’ve personally been using these MacBooks side by side for a bit of time now, and the battery life has seemed pretty similar between the two, there wasn’t that big of a difference (at least from the few days I’ve been using it), but Apple actually states on their own website that the 14 inch MacBook has worse battery life than the 13-inch MacBook!
