I got my Surface Book 3 15" (i7, 16GB, 256 GB storage) a few weeks ago, and it's mostly hooked up to my docking station at work. But the few times I've used it at home, I notice that I get NOWHERE close to the advertised 15+ hours of battery life. For instance, today, I got less than 6 hours on a full charge on one of the middle battery settings. We're a consulting firm, so I'm pretty much running Outlook, Teams, a few browser windows and joining calls on Teams, Zoom, GoToMeeting / GoToWebinar, etc. Some calls use video and others don't.
Frankly, I'm quite frustrated, because I used to get about the same or just a little less on my first gen Surface Laptop, which has a much smaller battery AND is considerably older (from 2018?).
How has the battery experience been for others here?
