My MacBook lasts a week or more already. I’ve had it for almost 3 years and put less than 100 cycles on it.

Is that actually on and working for an entire week or in sleep mode? Obviously sleep mode uses less power. No one is disputing the fact that you can have long stand by times, even if modern laptops have actually gotten worse in this regard.

If it can manage 8 hours of screen on time everyday for a week that would be closer to what I mean and probably what the original commenter meant.

Definitely not 40 hours use, but I get about 20 out of it, unless I’m doing something particularly heavy. Like, I tested BG3 on it for shits and giggles, and got better performance than my 2070 machine, but it drained my battery by over 50% in Les than an hour
