To be fair, the widely praised 16" Macbook Pro had a very similar issue. The battery did not charge via USB-C when computer is off and lid is closed, if I recall correctly. I don't know if they fixed it, in practise my computer is almost never off.

There is also an issue where the built-in webcam stops working and you need to restart the computer to get it to work again.

Considering how much I spent on the machine I was hoping not to be bothered by issues like this...

That issue was fixed last year (2 months after the MacBook was released).
