This is my second day of using my Surface Pro all day without plugging it in. I am just using it normally, checking email, websites, opening up PowerPoint and Word doc - just not using it constantly all day. Today, I turned it on and starting working with some PowerPoint slides around 10:30am. I checked the battery and it said I had 9 hours 23 mins left. I thought the time left HAD to be an error, but it is now 4pm and the unit still has 74% left. It is calculating the remaining 74% battery will last about 4 hours. As a comparison, after I fully charged the battery on day 1, I got about 4.5 hours of use before it ran down. That day, I DID use it constantly (of course, because it is a new toy). I am interested to see what a real world full run down will take by the end of this week.
Is anyone else noticing battery improvement since day 1? What kind of real world battery life are you getting?
I am not planning on plugging this in until the battery fully dies, so will try to report back with it's final life span.
