Yeah. I have an Intel MacBook Pro (nearly 10 years old) and never hit this problem. I can leave it on the shelf for a month and it’ll still have a 70% charge. I just gave up on Windows and brought a new M1 Mac due to this exact issue (the Intel one wasn’t getting OS updates any more).

The speed and reliability with which a Mac sleeps and wakes and how well it maintains battery is insanely good. My Windows laptop was more like a portable desktop, as I always had to plug it in and would walk around with the lid open rather than risk a sleep/wake attempt between meetings.

But according to the video; a 10 year old windows laptop wouldn't have this issue as well. It would probably go to sleep properly as expected almost every time.

Also I have had this issue with Macbook Pro 15 (2019), so it can't be guaranteed every-time for any OS I guess; not sure of the reason though. To me closing the lid should take preference over everything.

I'm temporarily sleeping in the room with my MacBook Pro, and it wakes up (and turns on a glowing peripheral too) half a dozen times during the night, to the point I unplug that peripheral before I go to sleep.

My previous, older Mac wouldn't sleep at all for more than a few seconds unless I unplugged the external monitor.
