Tests find that laptop battery life is completely overstated
- 7 years ago
A product review site named Which? found that most laptop brands overestimate the battery life of their products. The study tested laptops across seven different manufacturers. The only laptop to live up to its claim of a 10-hour battery life was the Apple Macbook Pro. Laptops from Dell, Acer, Lenovo, and HP fell hours short of their advertised battery life. The Geek Squad tech firm said the best ways to preserve battery life are to lower screen brightness, turn off features not in use, and use power-saving software.
