my last mac was a white macbook that took hours to fully charge from a fully drained battery. i used up my 13" macbook pro's battery down to 20% and when i plugged it in, it says it just needs 1:47 hours to fully charge again. is this normal? update: checked it again after a couple of minutes and now it says it needs 2:21 hours to fully charge.
yes, i noticed this too. it's fast! even from complete drain (i've tried it). it's a lot faster than my old macbook.
whew! thought something wasn't right. how's your battery life going right now? at the moment? on my first charge i went on four hours using lightroom editing RAW images. i'm expecting battery life to even get better as i start using up the battery more.
I was actually shocked that it needed only that amount of time. I was also using the battery down to 20%. It took approximately the same time as yours. I consider it very fast in fact...
it is faster to fully charge the mbp (sealed battery compartment) compared to the older alum... we got both to compare
yup, shocked is the best word to describe how i felt as well...was so used to my macbook and previous iBook needing hours and hours to fully charge a drained battery. i'm loving this mbp even more now!
angel, i know! i remember cycling my ol' macbook's batt and got furious as it got me stuck in the office still waiting for it to fully charge, i think about 5 hours or so if i'm not mistaken.
