Hi,

I am going to buy my first MacBook soon (switching from windows) and I wonder, how does a macbook battery behave when plugged in to the charger most of the time?

I know that macbooks have a long battery runtime and they work well (and fast) when not plugged in, but when I am home I tend to leave my laptops plugged into power.

My recent Lenovo Laptop has a battery "stationary" mode that keeps the battery at a certain level to reduce the battery's stress to a minimum.

I hope macbooks have a similar System when plugged in? Can anybody confirm or tell me how a macbook battery works when plugged in?

Cheers

Use AlDente and you can set a limit and once hit it’ll power itself from the wall not the battery
