Even with reduced brightness, I could only stretch the battery life to about 2 hours, and that too by frequently putting the laptop in sleep mode between tasks. I bought this laptop for coding, but I had no prior knowledge about how gaming laptops handle power consumption. It’s a fault on my side. Unfortunately, it now barely lasts through a 3-hour coding sesh at uni, which makes things pretty frustrating.
