thinkpad x220 with the 19+ slice battery extension gets me 10 hours (real, reported 11/12). That's under arch with some power tweaking.

Too bad the display is terrible.



I have the X220 and I love the display... Did you not get the IPS option?


I did but it has severe image persistence. Lenovo dodged for a while on this issue but finally has stepped up and admitted a problem and is replacing displays (just started). I'm going to be getting mine repaired.

It's a topic for a separate rant but it's a shame no other hw manufacturer has stepped up to offer build quality along the lines of apple's unibodies.
