I recently changed my battery but I got it off ebay, I was wondering if it was worth buying a new legit one. I am hoping it will last me 6-8 hours since i use my laptop for university. Also my laptop works fine but the battery is so annoying since it only last an hour
The 2012 Air is a nice and reliable Mac, still supported with latest OS release and in my opinion worth investing in a decent battery. One hour battery time doesn’t make any sense even for an average quality aftermarket battery, the timing reflects a faulty battery that sooner than later will probably stop working completely. You can download Coconut battery to get battery condition in a glance and post a screenshot for better evaluation if you care, but I believe that would probably confirm a replacement should be in order. https://www.coconut-flavour.com/coconutb… Please post your results so we can take a look.
