The battery life is horrendous. I saw reviews saying so and I ignored it. A brand new MacBook is worth it. To not know if the product will turn on or not due to the battery life is not a good life. The $999 for a new quality laptop would have been worth it. 90% of my experience with this laptop is opening it and spending an hour trying to get it to turn on due to the battery being dead. Even though I barely use it since it’s always dead and has to be on the charger 100% of the time.
