Battery life
The doubt is that this computing power, in some ways better utilized than the 1215N and VX6 can go too to affect the autonomy of the 1215B. It must be said that the tests were run a bit 'in a hurry (it was possible to hold the netbook only for 3 days) and maybe we will need a second feedback to confirm everything. In any case, the 6-cell battery 5200mAh allowed an autonomy of 5 hours of daily use (WiFi, writing software, screen brightness set to 80%) had a higher average score (just) than the 1215N. I remember that the AMD Zacate E-350 has a maximum TDP of 18W (CPU + GPU). Personally, I lowered the brightness even further (say 50%) and did more testing of web surfing (which is always a netbook), but I realize that the weather was calm with very little to analyze this aspect. We will come back online when they are new tests.
