Dell packed in a relatively small 64 watt-hour battery, where most 16-inch laptops have greater capacity. The Lunar Lake chipset is efficient, but the QHD+ mini-LED display is pretty power-hungry.

It’s also fast (thanks to the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor) and lightweight (2.82 pounds), and the 75 watt-hour battery churned out 17 hours of charge. That’s not bad for the $850 price tag.
