A few days back, Apple released macOS Sierra 10.12.2 into the wild. In beta for a few weeks, the update innocuously played itself as a small bug-fix update at first. What shocked many of those who updated wasn’t all the new emojis, but rather the fact that Apple pulled the battery’s estimated ‘time remaining’ feature seen in the system menu bar.
Normally I wouldn’t bat at an eye at a change like this, but this comes directly after complaints of battery life on the new MacBook Pros have increased. What is Apple doing here? Is this a game of simply ignoring the problem and sweeping complaints under the rug, or is there something bigger happening?
