I love the idea of System76 and Coreboot and keep checking in on them every few months but the story seems to remain the same - horrible battery life. I can’t see dropping over 1k on a laptop that barely lasts 4 hours out of the box.
- cbsmith 7y agoThe Galago Pro has the rough battery life. The Darter addresses that issue.
- bwat49 7y agoThe new darter pro gets decent battery life, I get around 7 hours on mine. It has similar hardware to the galago pro, but with a 54 whr battery instead of 35 whr. Their other models do have poor battery life though. The galago pro is especially egregious, I don't know why anyone would buy a 13 inch laptop that only gets 3 hours of battery.
- cbsmith 7y agoI actually had considered it at one point. Sometimes the reason you want something small & compact is you don't need to run it for that long.
