  I got one of these in a laptop. For a laptop, not really, especially in idle (6-7 watts for the whole laptop). It's quite good anyway.

    6-7W for the whole device seems decent doesn’t it? That’s 14h on a 100Wh battery

      Very bad by Apple standards and almost twice as much as more (idle) efficient current x86 laptop CPUs. Not terrible overall.

        They were quoting laptop numbers, not the CPU. For reference, a M2 16" macbook pro has a 99Wh battery, and Apple advertises 16-17 hours max battery life. That's 5.8-6.25W. So, their estimate of 6W for the AMD flagship AI laptop is exactly in line with the Apple flagships.

          Thanks for the numbers. I looked up some numbers too, and my laptop has a 74.5 Wh battery. Additionally, I'm using an 80% charge limit so ~60 Wh. Since I'm sure about the battery life in hours (as projected by powertop), system power must be 9 W or so. Now I also recall 11 W before some tuning.
