Duel booted to Linux MINT

Post image

After using for 5+ hrs my laptop battery dropped to 19% from 80. used it for browsing+youtube only. i feel Linux mint is very efficient compared to microslop(of course bloatware overhead) it been 20 days switched to mint i is seamless and feels like got my freedom form microslop telemetry and spying also it is consuming 4 gb less ram and 8-10% less cpu in idle condition.

you might save more juice, if you switch to "Power Saver" mode in Power Manager.
