Google Chrome with ‘Way More Battery Life’ While Google has made some marginal improvements over the years - we can attest to the fact that it used to be even worse - it still doesn’t hold a candle to Safari when it comes to maximizing your battery performance, and in fact one of the first thoughts that came to mind when Apple released its new M1 MacBooks with their stellar battery life was the fact that maybe Chrome users actually will be able to get through half a day of use while running on battery. Although some of this comes down to Apple’s home field advantage - after all, it owns and controls the hardware and the operating system - the reality is that there really hasn’t been an excuse for Google Chrome to be as bad as it is on Macs, especially when you consider that other apps that rely on the same Chromium engine, including Microsoft’s Edge browser, has always done way better - even on Windows.
