Battery Life Issue After macOS Sequoia Update

After updating my MacBook Air to macOS Sequoia, I’ve noticed a significant drop in battery performance. Previously, my MacBook could last more than 5 hours on a full charge, but now it struggles to hold more than 3 hours. Additionally, there are other performance issues I’ve noticed since the update, including Battery and MacBook Air general performance and so much lagging


Could you please advise on how I can fix these issues and restore my battery’s previous performance? I would appreciate any troubleshooting steps or guidance you can provide.


Thank you for your support.

Hi Mac mates, I have the same problem here, so sad!!!! I have a MacBook Pro M3; before updating to Sequoia, the battery lasted more than 8 hours without plugging in the power. Now it lasts 4 hours, more or less. Also, before updating to Sequoia, the laptop didn't take battery when suspended, but now I put the Mac in my backpack, go to work, and surprisingly, I find the battery down. WHAT IS HAPPENING??????
