So I picked up mine at launch @ 5:30 pm pacific and got it charged to a 100% by 6:30 pm. I've been using moderately to heavily and I still have 30%. Pretty nice. Mostly skimming safari like macrumors, engadget etc.

Since you refer to 6:30 p.m. I assume you mean between yesterday and today? Do you have an hourly total? That would be more helpful to readers.

Yup. Just mostly used for surfing the web and reading some books about 2-3 hours per day. Not bad

My battery life is good, but it's no more than the 10 hours stated. I woke up at 7:30 yesterday and used it till about 4:00 with only a few breaks lol. So probably say 7.5 hours usage and still had 30% left. My 10 hour MacBook pro would have needed to be recharged twice in that time
