performance issue

So, back in 2020 this MBP was a huge upgrade from my old Air. I couldn't believe the snappiness but needless to say, moving from BigSur up to now Sonoma makes it feel really sluggish. I've uninstalled stuff which isn't needed, cleared SMC/NVRAM etc, regularly run cleanmymac, closed apps etc but...

I’m interested in discussion on the iPhone’s battery degrading and how it affects performance. As it stands now, my iPhone 7+ battery is at 75% Maximum Capacity. I’d like to learn a little more as to what exactly this means, and how it might be affecting my device’s performance. I’ve noticed...

Hi! While researching about 4K monitors for my MacBook Air 2020 I found out that many mac users experience performance issues when applying scaling. More precisely when scaling not to the native 4K resolution or 1080p but between the "more space" and "larger text". Somewhere in the middle there...

I'm seeing an issue with my 2018 MacBook Pro i9 spec'd machine. I don't think it's temperature related, thinking more voltage drain. Interested to see if anyone else has the same issues. Current setup is 80W . USB apple charger and 1x 4k screen connected via DisplayPort. Intel Power Gadget...

Has anyone experienced this? I swapped the HD out of my iMac to my Macbook Pro. Both systems were running at a good speed prior. Once I did the swap, I noticed the Macbook was running slower (more color pinwheels, slower speeds trying to complete tasks, etc). Would it be a good thing to do a...
