Who has what kind of iron? - page 10

 
chief2000:
You can basically get another battery right away, it's not much money.
And what can you choose from the hardware? Is it possible to say that the more powerful the processor, the better the battery consumption?
If yes, how significant is it?
An example to compare i3 - i5 - i7.

i3 is enough, very fast and also economical. Mobile i5 is pretty much the same i3 (2 cores, 4 threads), but with hyperthreading and it also eats a bit more. i7 for a laptop is too much, it has to be on a desktop (top, laptop). Although i7 can also be dual-core.

Battery consumption depends a lot on the screen and its settings.

Soon ultrabooks will be equipped with celerons, for less energy consumption. And they will also be cheaper...

 
chief2000: What is the hardware to choose from? Is it safe to say that the more powerful the CPU the better the battery consumption?

I don't know about the CPU, but it depends on the operating system, I don't know why XP runs out of battery faster than Win7 when watching videos - I have 2 operating systems on my netbook
