Laptop battery tests can often be tedious and over complicated so Michael and his team have kept this one really simple. They’ve well, just run the test machines, including models from Lenovo, Microsoft, Apple Dell and Asus, until the battery went flat.
Doing what most users do which is web based working and light tasks, they have compiled the list of winners with two Lenovo Thinkpad machines unsurprisingly in first and second place, the ThinkPad X260 and ThinkPad T460 with an amazing 17 hours of duration each, with third and 4th place going to Acer and Apple.
