How to check the battery health on Mac?

Your Mac's battery life is chiefly dependent on how many times it has been charged since its release date. For most MacBooks released after 2010, this number will be 1,000; however for older models made before 2010, this number will range from 300-600 cycles.

To check your battery cycle count, select “About this Mac” from the Apple menu, click “System Report,” and under “Hardware” click “Power.” Under “Health information” you will see how many cycles your battery has experienced up to this point. If the cycle count is nearing your Mac model limit, or the ‘condition’ is anything other than “Normal,” you should consider replacing your battery.

Swollen or bloated battery

On occasion, a defective batteries may display a "Normal" condition despite malfunction. The below images show what happens when a "Normal" but malfunctioning  battery bloats or gets swollen. If your trackpad is warping or any other external component of the case is separating, it is most likely a battery that is failing, we recommend to replace the battery promptly to avoid potential harm to other components within the MacBook.

How long does a Mac battery last?

How long a Mac battery lasts largely depends on the usage of your Mac and how often you keep it plugged into power. If you regularly keep your Mac unplugged and let the battery run down each day, it should last you somewhere between 3-5 years before you need to replace the battery. However, if you use your Mac as a desktop and keep it plugged in at all times, you will reduce the number of cycles your battery goes through and thus prolong the life of your battery for several more years.

What is a good battery cycle count for Mac batteries?

A good battery cycle count for Mac batteries largely depends on how many years you plan to use the Mac in question before replacing the battery. It also depends on how the laptop has been used. A battery that is older, but with fewer cycles can actually have less run time capacity than a fresher battery that has more run time cycles due to the impact of ‘exercise and use’ on battery health. Whether your current Mac or a used Mac you are buying, a battery with less than 300 cycles should be expected to still deliver reasonable run-time performance. This is impacted by the age of the original battery, so the age of the laptop should always be kept in mind. Otherwise, a battery reporting over or approaching 1000 cycle counts is likely at or near it’s time to be replaced.

If you are buying a used Mac released after 2010 and plan to use one for at least three years, we recommend getting one with 300 or less cycles. Otherwise, it's important to note that the battery will need replacing when it gets close to 1,000 charges
