i'm convinced windows laptops have negative battery capacity. in all my years of being exposed to tons of different windows laptops, i've yet to have a single one that holds a charge for more than a few hours. not a single one could last a day of use. i've used chromebooks that have lasted me weeks on a single charge. the only place i'm using windows is on a desktop so i don't have the thing die on me after having affinity designer open for more than 5 minutes.

Dell batteries aren’t great. HP seems to do better. And I’m sure Microsoft laptops are even better.
I tried video editing on a Dell, had to stop after 1.5 hours for dead battery lol
haven’t tried the surface laptops so i can’t say, but they are pretty small part of the overall market compared to dell, lenovo, hp, etc. i’ve got a hp laptop thats somewhat recent (it just misses out on windows 11 support) and it has horrible battery life, its not even like it has extremely powerful components that require more power. also yeah dell battery life is dreadful a lot of the time.
