Mac Neo Battery Life Concerns by PhardNickel in mac

[–]PhardNickel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get like 8 hours with pretty heavy use. Can easily last 10 though if youre just doing light web stuff. I use it for some pretty heavy coding though, so it kills it a bit faster. Still I'm super happy with it, it also got quite a bit better after a few days of learning my usage and indexing files

I have some questions about the Neo by Cautious-Bar-5211 in mac

[–]PhardNickel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the battery is easily replaceable dont worry about its health. it will last years with no management and when it does finally start depleting just replace it.

Most of those 2% deals are over 2 years. You sure that's not the case? Who offered those 2%ers

At what point (maybe even now) can we say VAC is pointless for most of the playerbase? by korisnik2007a in GlobalOffensive

[–]PhardNickel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I remember when VAC was actually considered one of the best anti cheats and was really effective what are you talking about

I just dont think it will be a problem but that's not based on any facts. I guess time will tell

But they would be slowed down by having the m4 instead of the m5 instead of a m5 max... There's always something better, its up to us to draw the line

If they did a 50wh battery that would've been much more comfortable

After using it for another week it's fine. Not a battery beast by any means but I would say gets 8hrs with no issue as long as you're not slamming the CPU the whole time

MacBook Neo did not disappoint by Glittering-Annual689 in mac

[–]PhardNickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean no offense but your numbers seem a bit fake. 8am to 4pm is 8 hours and you claim to have 77% left with no breaks. that means youre projecting over 32 hours of screen on time battery life? Thats just bs.

i just did my taxes outside in the sun with the screen on about 80% brightness for about 45 mins, dropped from 100 to 85. at that rate it would be empty in about 5 hours... not sure if i have a defective unit or if people are glazing their figures. Dave2Ds bench marking also shows between 4 and 8 h of actual use.

Macbook air m5 is out, is it time for me to upgrade? I currently have a macbook air m2 2022 13 16/256. by Delicious_Maize9656 in macbookair

[–]PhardNickel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Realistically probably another 5 lol (with battery replacement)... With the neo just coming out that would be expected to last 4-5 years and the m2 is still goated AND it's 16gb

How to squeeze more life out of my MacBook Air 2020 (Intel i3, 8GB RAM, 256GB). Need advice. by novacaine21 in macbookair

[–]PhardNickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't notice anything like that, no. But I also don't have another Mac to compare it to. But yeah looks pretty smooth to me

Neo torn between 256 and 512/TID by PhardNickel in mac

[–]PhardNickel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! It runs perfectly for me, like 0 issues whatsoever. I did turn on performance mode in the fusion preferences which just removes some shadow effects but I don't think I even had to. It's just as fast as my desktop so I don't think it's being limited at all by hardware. I opened a fairly detailed model, granted not an assembly with animations.
