Whatever, pc laptops are lagging behind so much its embarrassing. When I compare my 300 kilo lenovo Legion with a 30 kilo brick for charging that gets me an hour of work tops (strangely not an exaggeration) when disconnected to a thin 2 year or macbook m1 I just wanna cry.
My Lenovo runs most of a day on battery, while running VM’s - it uses a USB C charger.
And it’s 4 years old.
Not sure what you’re doing with a modern laptop to kill a battery like that - I hammer on machines (and phones) , screen’s never off, crank performance up (fan runs a lot), always running VM’s with services (Syncthing, Resiliosync and PiHole mostly), or building VM’s.
I’m impressed that you beat a machine harder than I do, lol.
Graphic design and I don’t believe you.
Ah, yea, design work is intensive. I kind of figured it was something along those lines.
So you have a portable workstation. Those beasts are just what you describe - heavy, massive power supplies, etc. I carried one for a short time, asked if I could downgrade! While it was nice to have the power, it was just too damn heavy (and too big). Damn thing kept my legs warm, all year round.
Anymore I don’t want anything bigger than 14", and even that is slightly larger than I prefer, because I usually have a monitor.
Performance:kg or Performance:Watt all PC laptops are complete trash compared to an M-series Macbook. However, that’s only relevant to some usecases. I generally don’t care how much my laptop weighs or how much power it uses. I just need it to have AMD hardware so Wayland works and to be able to play games decently when I’m not using it for productivity tasks.
