Battery Life? MacBook Pro

My MacBook Pro (purchased new in 2015) won't run unless plugged into an outlet. Even though the battery shows a full charge, it won't run for more than a few minutes. Advice?


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.14

Hi MADA914,


From your description it sounds like the battery of your Mac may need to be replaced. All batteries are consumable parts and will eventually lose their ability to accept or retain a charge.


You can use the steps from Check the condition of your Mac laptop’s battery to see the current health of your battery. Contact Apple Support or visit a service provider listed at Find Locations to explore service options if appropriate.


Regards.
