minus-squareChouxFleur@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·20 days agoMy mid 2013 MacBook air sees more use than any of my other devices. I bought it for £100 a few years back and haven’t looked back.
minus-squareatomp@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·20 days agoOut of interest, what kind of battery life do you get out of it?
minus-squareChouxFleur@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·19 days agoDepends - average would probably be about 2-3 hours? Not great but not awful for my use. I could replace the battery and improve this - ifixit sell the kits - but currently I have no need.
minus-squareatomp@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·19 days agoAhh right, I’m getting about 4ish hours on my quite healthy battery on Mint, which felt short. I just fiddled about with TLP and dropped the discharge rate by half-ish. Otherwise it’s a great little low-cost device!
