      No shit. So does every battery. But 5 years in they’re still going. Not the 2 the article says. But apple should design them to be swapped or longer for environment.

        It’s not just time, it’s discharging them fully. You only get so many cycles veggie the battery is significantly impacted

          Okay… I use them 8-9 hours a day when I’m in the office. For years, that was every weekday. Now I only use them about half the time, but they’ve got an insane amount of power cycles on them.
