    What a poor take. I’ve been trying g to find the right balance between performance, battery, and heat/sound for business use. Intels previous gen under performed, AMD ran hot, and neither were good with battery.

    Jumping from 10hrs to 18hrs in testing is huge, with real world use likely going from 4-8 hrs. Getting an all-day battery is a win that only Apple and snapdragon have been able to do.

      Oh look, the OP that posted the ad doubles down on the false expectations published in the ad.

      Lunar lake guzzles energy when using several programs at the time and performs worse that even Arrow lake in the battery department once this is the case. If you put a lid on it and use the low perf mode, you revert to performance from half a decade ago. At that point one is much better served by a macbook air. The only saving grace of lunar lake is the performant, low power iGPU. The single reason to use an x86 laptop is compatibility with professional software like catya etc, Lunar lake is trash tier in anything remotely useful, which begs the question: why would anyone choose Lunar Lake over snapdragon or Mx laptops then?
