These older Intel chips are rock solid.
Nobody will ever top Intel 14nm, decent performance but with great battery life.

>t. HP Elitebook 830 G6 reporting in!
>13 hours battery life on Linux mint without needing Apoo Silicon

Only if you have it on standby most of the time.
Most reviewers say the M3 MBA gets 11-13 hours of 1080p Youtube playback on Safari, less with Chromium.
I have software that don't run on Mac OSX, so these older 8th gen business laptops are the next best thing.
It also only cost me $350 to absolutely max mine out to 64GB RAM and 4TB SSD.
