Hi all, just wanted to see if those of you with the new 13" MBA are getting similar battery life as me. Seems to be about the same as the 2011 model too. I am testing out the base model (MD231LL/A). Pretty much just web browsing with e-mail and word/excel running and constant activity (not sitting idle). Not much video tested.
Screen Brightness: 8 dots (50%)
Keyboard Backlight: 2 dots
6/14 AM: 58 min/19% = 5.09 hrs
6/14 PM: 76 min/22% = 5.76 hrs
6/15 AM: 56 min/19% = 4.91 hrs
Total Battery Estimate = 5.28 hrs
Not quite the 7 hrs as advertised, but seems to probably be reaslistic for most.
What do you all get? I'll continue to update as I test further. Thanks.
