2·
29 days agoI got mine pretty early on, one of the first waves to be shipped, and only issue I’ve had is having my battery level drop go zilch when switching to a 2.4Ghz Wifi network. Then I would have to plug it in, open the BIOS and switch to battery storage mode, unplug and wait about a minute. Plug it back in to boot it up, and battery levels are normal. I can fortunately just stick to 5Ghz networks nowadays and haven’t had a problem.
It happens on any 2.4ghz network. I’m apparently not the only one, as there are some old reddit posts about it, too. It’s an oddly specific problem and I can’t figure out if it’s a software issue or if my battery really is borked.
