Apparently the new battery is 79 watt-hours (the old one was 64 watt-hours), versus the 76 watt-hours on the 2016 rMBP. With the power-guzzling 4K screen, it&amp;#x27;ll almost certainly get &lt;i&gt;less battery life&lt;/i&gt; than the new MBP.&lt;p&gt;Which confirms the consternation over the 2016 rMBP. It&amp;#x27;s a huge regression compared to the 99 watt-hour battery in the 2015 rMBP 15&amp;quot;, but with few exceptions PC manufacturers were shipping 50-60 watt batteries in similar configurations. And going with power-guzzling 4K displays instead of the much more efficient 3K model in the MBP.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>HP made a laptop slightly thicker to add 3 hours of battery life</title><url>http://www.theverge.com/ces/2017/1/3/14126382/new-hp-spectre-x360-laptop-2017-announced-price-release-date-ces</url></story>

You could decide if you want the &amp;quot;thin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;thick&amp;quot; baseplate to balance between all-day battery life vs. ultra-thin portable 3-4 hour life.&lt;p&gt;This would give the option to create a solid &amp;quot;3-inch thick&amp;quot; battery that lasts a week. It would weigh a ton, but for some situations like remote fieldwork it could be a really great solution.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>HP made a laptop slightly thicker to add 3 hours of battery life</title><url>http://www.theverge.com/ces/2017/1/3/14126382/new-hp-spectre-x360-laptop-2017-announced-price-release-date-ces</url></story>
