Earlier this year I ordered a new x13 laptop (core i7, 16gb ram, 1tb ssd).

Vanilla Ubuntu desktop (22.04) installed.

When I'm doing normal work on battery mode, I get around 4 to 6 hours out of it.

However if I hop onto a Google Meet, the battery gets rapidly depleted (lasts around 1 hour 20 minutes before it runs out).

Is this a known issue with Google Meet?

I seem to get similar rapidly decreasing battery life when watching 1080p movies on it.

It's virtually impossible to use this laptop on the move when I have online meetings.

By comparison, my wife's 10 year old Macbook still lasts 6+ hours when on the go, and that's irrespective of if she's on meetings or watching movies.

Is my x13's battery performance in Ubuntu normal?

Any advice on how to improve it (use it less)?

I've found that lowering the screen brightness helps a bit. Closing all other windows / applications makes a marginal difference.

Thanks.","time":1697478808,"title":"Ask HN: New ThinkPad battery life on Ubuntu","type":"story"}]]
