24-Hour Laptop Battery Life Is Here

[Marees]

From PC Mag:

Thanks to software improvements, larger batteries, and more efficient chips and displays, laptops are lasting longer than ever between charges. We just saw a model hit 30 hours in PC Labs testing.

...and news from AMD's financial analyst day on maximum battery life for upcoming AMD apus

Calling AMD’s upcoming 7nm Ryzen laptop CPUs a “watershed” moment for the company, AMD VP of computing and graphics Rick Bergman hinted that at least one model of laptop could hit “18 hours” of runtime.

I guess pcmag authors have no use for the metric system.

Well they're in the US, so...

Besides, in battery life terms, it's not like metric time is really all that popular either.

Larger batteries + more efficient electronics = longer runtime
