What’s battery like on MacOS 11.4? MacBook M1 specifically

[jordysak]

MacBook Pro M1 running 11.2.3, everything is great.
I know most of you suggest always keeping their stuff up to date, but from previous experiences I find that the macOS (or IOS for iPhones) the MacBook comes with is the best. Every time I updated my MacBook or IPhone in the past, something went wrong, namely the BATTERY IS ALMOST ALWAYS IMPACTED. Does anyone have any batter issues (or any issues) with 11.4 on their Mac?


Now with my M1 MacBook I’m currently running 11.2.3 , which is the version it came with and I had no plans on considering updating it but apparently 11.4 ‘fixes’ the SSD issue M1s are impacted by, although that never bothered me anyway as I really think the whole thing is a bit exaggerated. But I wouldn’t mind a fix, if there’s one.

I haven't had any problems on 11.4. Battery life has remained the same.

That’s great news! How’s the SSD issue? Has it been fixed? Although I never knew if mine is impacted by it or not

I was not affected. Most weren't. From what I have read on the forum, the few that appeared to be affected said that 11.4 fixed the problem.

The battery on my M1 Air had never been all that impressive until 11.4. It's outstanding now.
