Full battery charge at 98%?


Question Posted Saturday March 2 2013, 10:09 am

I have a late 2011 Macbook Pro.
Recently I've noticed that when it's "fully charged" it shows that the battery is only at 98%.

What does this mean? Is my laptop battery deteriorating?

Any information would be much appreciated. Especially as I notice that my laptop no longer holds the charge it used to hold.

In case it is necessary: I am running OSX Mountain Lion and don't really exhaust my laptop - I don't have countless numbers of programs on it,and the hard drive is maybe 70% full.

If you have had your MacBook a long time it probably will be losing its battery. Don't worry! This happens with every electrical device but if that is the case you may need to get a new one. If it has a warranty and it still within that time you should take it back, but it may just be that the battery and the screen are not communicating correctly and it displays the wrong numbers. I would just recommend taking it into an apple store near you! Best of luck xx
