    I’ve been reading 20 hours of battery life while streaming. Battery life doesn’t improve the experience beyond a certain point, my XPS with Debian gets about 6 hours, my M1 MBA get about 8, I really don’t need more than 8 hours.

    I prefer standby as a measure of usefulness my MBA can sleep for weeks, my XPS can only last 4-5 days.

      I know for my own needs, more than a few hours of battery life is wasted on me. If I’m using a computer for literally the entire day, there is power available.

      Framework 13 Pro’s 20 hours of battery life while streaming video is damn impressive though.
