MacBook Pro, which was released last year, was under scanner since launch for its less than claimed battery life. During its initial review also, the MacBook Pro received ‘poor’ ratings for its battery life, by the Consumer Reports. It was a bug in the Safari icon that affected the battery life and eventually the Consumer Reports’ feedback.

However, the latest update is expected to fix this issue. Though the release notes don't specify this, the update will fix the Safari icon fetching bug as it brings along the Safari update (10.0.3).

Here are the 10.12.3 release notes specifications:

1. Improves automatic graphics switching on MacBook Pro (15-inch, October 2016).

2. Resolves graphics issues while encoding Adobe Premiere Pro projects on MacBook Pro with Touch Bar (13- and 15-inch, October 2016).

3. Fixes an issue that prevented the searching of scanned PDF documents in Preview.

4. Resolves a compatibility issue with PDF documents that are exported with encryption enabled.

5. Fixes an issue that prevented some third-party applications from correctly importing images from digital cameras.

The former update i.e. MacOS 10.12.2 was released with four new wallpapers, Unicode 9.0 emoji, graphics and System Integrity Protection fixes.
