M4 version MacBook Pro battery capacity increased by 5%, can be used for up to one day

[ Gearbest Technology News]Apple recently released a new MacBook Pro series equipped with M4 chips. Although the appearance is not much different from the M3 version, the internal performance improvements provide users with stronger reasons to upgrade.

The new M4 MacBook Pro has significantly improved performance and battery life, especially the improved battery life, which has become one of the main motivations for users to upgrade. In a recent video released by the YouTube channel Max Tech, a detailed analysis of the battery of the new M4 MacBook Pro was conducted, saying that the capacity is 5% larger than the previous generation.

Although the M4 MacBook Pro is consistent in design with the M3 version and still uses a full-screen design, Apple has optimized its internal components, and the increase in battery capacity is one of them. Apple claims that the M4 MacBook Pro has the longest battery life of any MacBook model, even surpassing the thin and light Air series. The company has taken different approaches to extend overall battery life, with larger battery cells being an important part of it.

According to Max Tech, the battery capacity of the M4 MacBook Pro is 72.6Wh, an increase of about 5% compared to the M3 version. In his comparison, the entry-level model of the M4 MacBook Pro lasted about 2 hours longer than the previous generation M3 version, increasing from 22 hours to 24 hours. This achievement is attributed to the larger battery capacity and the lower power consumption of the M4 chip, which further improves the overall battery life performance.

Gao Bozhu mentioned in the video that apart from the larger battery unit, Apple has made few other changes to the internal layout, including the cooling solution, speakers and other components, which are consistent with the M3 version. Apple cleverly used the internal space to integrate the slightly larger battery while keeping the overall design of the body unchanged.

In the new MacBook Pro series, the high-end models equipped with M4 Pro and M4 Max have slightly lower battery life than the base M4 model due to their higher power consumption. The battery life of the M4 Max version is 18 hours, which is lower than the 24 hours of the M4 version. Max Tech analyzes that this difference mainly comes from the power consumption of M4 Pro and M4 Max, while the overall efficiency level of the chip remains the same.
