MacBook air m2 macOS Sonoma Battery Drain

it's been a month since I updated my MacBook Air M2 to macOS Sonoma. and since then I've been having issues with the battery. before Sonoma the battery was normal, I go on a full workday not thinking about charging. but since the update the battery holds about 4 hours from 80% to 20%. and that is OUTRAGEOUS! keep in mind I bought this Mac on AUG 11th 23!

I contacted Apple support and nothing!


Is anyone else having battery drain issues with macOS Sonoma?

MacBook Air, macOS 14.1

Hi yzn4real,

I am having a similar problem when my 13" MacBook Air M2 (bought about a year ago) battery used to lasted a day, but after I installed Sonoma, my battery drain is similar to yours. This is outrages and unacceptable... This is a major issue, and definitely needs to be fixed.
