This does not solve anything, even the abolition of these rules, because the battery capacity in Wh per 1 kg of weight is still negligible, despite all the startups' assurances about new "super batteries". To solve the problem of long-term battery life with their current capacity, it is necessary to reduce hardware consumption by 10 times, as minimum. Actually, nothing except the screen there should consume more than 5-10W. It was the shame of Intel/NVidia with the inability to improve performance without increasing hardware consumption that ultimately led to a monstrous situation where laptops consume up to 300W, which is more than what powerful desktops used to consume many years ago...
The IT industry is at an impasse with silicon. And TSMC officially recognized this. The performance growth curve per 1W has practically turned into a horizontal straight line compared to the exponential graph that was in the 80s, 90s and the first 10 years of the 2000s. We will no longer have real progress in software without a 1W hardware performance jump of at least another 1000x. In parallel with the increase in the capacity of a typical mass-produced RAM (here need even more - 10000 times at least) and disks by the same amount.
They cant put in batteries larger than 100WH because of TSA security theater. Technically, you can have over 100WH but airline has to give permission and say they are okay with it. Once again, you can thank security theater and government tyranny for ruining life.
An absolutely stupid and pointless law and that is by design. This was not a mistake/incompetence. It is pure malice and tyranny.
Wow, a 17" laptop with a 99 Wh battery. Me surprised much /s. This is only newsworthy because other manufacturers place smaller batteries into their gaming laptops since it is presumed that those will never be used without external power.
Gigabyte has now released a new 17-inch gaming laptop built around modern Intel processors and NVIDIA GPUs. The AORUS 17 (2024) also has a huge battery and numerous ports, among other features.
