    The battery life is impressive, but I don't think they edited the article much. For example, this paragraph was left in:

    "Another standout feature of this design is the size and quality of the display. At 16-inches across, this panel is dramatically larger than many of the branded products that are priced similarly, and with a natural resolution of xxx, it allows for more applications to share screen space."

      The arstechnica review shows a rather average battery life: 491 min @ 200nits with the 7840U. That's a pretty stark difference with this review here.

    I don't understand the almost contradictory comments regarding the battery results from TechRadar:

    • "Decent battery life"
    • "Great battery life"
    • "excellent battery life"
    • "With a battery life that is close to 14 hours, this laptop should get you through a full day and then some more. The latest AMD Ryzen 7 processor provides both high performance and power efficiency in a single package."

    So which one is it? Is it decent? Is it great? Is it excellent?

    The numbers are certainly promising, with over 13h55 min in PCMark battery test @ 120 nits!
