Very much this. I replaced an old 6700HQ laptop with the latest 7500U and battery life is worlds better. My previous machine was lucky to go three hours, and that was intentionally throttling the CPU, while my new machine can go 4-5 hours pushing it hard, or all day if I'm not doing anything intensive.
- seabrookmx 10y ago> old 6700HQ I'd hardly call that old. And that's not an apples to apples comparison. The 6700HQ is a quad core part, whereas the 7500U is dual core (both of them feature hyperthreading, so 4 and 8 threads respectively). Given equivalent software, the 6700HQ will outperform the 7500U in multithreaded workloads.
