Detailed description：
The battery life sucks on this one, I was promissed 8h+ by the seller, bought it just a couple of months ago, my records is 4h. 100% loaded it says 2-4h... now I have uninstalled everything, turned off everything.. even when doing nothing with no software open, it wont last more then 4h.. and am I not supposed to work on it??? I got an 6y old Sony Vaio that I still gets 15-16h on, new it was...
Cant have the mx250 activated, because if something use it, the fans starts speeding up as hell and the laptop gets smooking hot..
What am I supposed to do with this crap??? Work... 1-2h.. using it with charger.. then it also gets hot as hell and fans is so fucking disturbing..

Hello raspelin,
May you double check if your BIOS and Windows are all up to date?
and then may I have a screenshot of the task manager to see what could be using more power than we expected?
Also, what is your screen brightness?
Thank you.

Yes BIOS and windows are running the latest updates, and this problems has been on all versions, since I got the computer in august/sept 2020...
Using no sound and lowest brightness and battery saver... now 97% battery and computer says 2h 13min...
Im a computer engineer/developer with 20y+ experience, and I have turned off all windows functions and now have no installed softwre mot then Opera, that I tried if Edge was the problem... have also tried chrome and firefox.
How do I do to get the 8h+ promissed? 2-4h is when doing nothing.. if I run software that I need for work.. RDP.. Visual studio etc.. then it is 1-2h..

How was this 13,38h done? Is it something wrong with my laptop?
Now I cant even use it until lunch...
False advertising or did I got a bad unit?
