In general, most people cannot readily relate “half glass full of water” as 50% and a bit lower quantity as being 40% and so on.

Hence, the graphical representation of battery life as indicated at the top-right corner of the screen is often misunderstood or even totally ignored by many users.

To fix this issue, you can make your MacBook to Show Battery Percentage, in addition to the default battery icon.

1. Select the Apple Icon in top-menu bar and click on System Preferences in the drop-down menu.
