Warning for upgrading old MacBooks to Big Sur

Post by Shardik »

You should wait with upgrading to Big Sur on MacBook Pros from 2013 or 2014. There are reports on bricking the hardware while updating:
- Apple's discussions forum
- Reddit

Not only MacBook, my colleague ruined his relatively new iMac when trying to update...

I updated my MacBook Air and mac Mini without problems, however both of them had beta profiles on them so no hard update.
As you walk on by, Will you call my name? Or will you walk away?
