 the way arm-based laptops can get two days' worth of life out of a single charge is low-key a game changer

 @ca5977db Might be low-key, but it is high impact. At least in my usage.

 @ca5977db Even good enough to travel and not bother to take a charger.

 @ca5977db I would argue this is not even close to low key

 @ca5977db In your case, Windows in Arm, or Apple Silicon? Because the latter is also a performance game-changer.

 @ca5977db Can they get them to if you put a full load on them?

Oh you mean you can get 2 days out of them if you are careful what you do with them.

Well, I can have that with my existing laptop 15W ia64 laptop too, worst case I plan to bring an external USB-C powerbank. 🤷
