Apple's MacBook revival plan: Bring back old features

Wait a couple years and you can say goodbye to your MBA superb battery capacity. Mine is now at 70% after only 3 years and less than 400 cycles. For all the buzz it receives, Apple does not really provide the highest quality. I’ve concluded that:

“Apple gives you awesome first impression and terrible relationship in the long term.”

I’ve always heard the opposite. And in fact, my M1 Mac replaces an almost decade old MacBook.

70% of an M1 Macbook's battery capacity would still be enough to get you through a typical work day!

This is a problem with all laptop batteries, not just Apple batteries.

I'm saying that the OP's reasoning for lack of magsafe is not relevant.
