00:00Which MacBook has the best battery life?
00:02Apple just updated their entire 2026 lineup
00:04and introduced a brand new budget-friendly MacBook Neo.
00:08So here's how they stack up in our 150-nit continuous Wi-Fi web browsing loop.
00:13Starting with the newest, the Neo.
00:15It lasted for 13 hours and 28 minutes.
00:17Not quite the 16 hours that Apple claims,
00:20but for a $600 laptop, it's still incredible.
00:23The 13-inch MacBook Air hit 15 hours and 28 minutes,
00:27while the 15-inch model got 15 hours and 37 minutes,
00:31making both a bit better than Apple's up to 15 hours claim.
00:35Then there's the Pros, which continue to be our longest-lasting laptops.
00:39The M5 Max MacBook Pro 14-inch hits 17 hours and 58 minutes,
00:44while the M5 Pro 16-inch got a ridiculous 21 hours and 25 minutes.
00:49That's about 40 minutes better than last year's model, which is very impressive.
00:52But what do you think? Are you surprised at all?
