That's not much of a challenge.
>>
>>56233250
Because there hasnt been much of an increase in laptop cpu power since sandy bridge. The focus is on improving the iGPU and reducing power consumption.
>>
weird i own a x220t and a oct '13 rmb and it compiles much faster
>>
>>56233287

This, a Sandy Bridge barely gets 4 hours of while a rMBP gets 10 hours. That's the improvement

the rmb that is

Weird, my rMBP13 gets 5-6 hours when doing web browsing. The Battery indicator on OSX is inaccurate as hell, use the one by iStat, that one is a lot more realistic.
I also have an X230 that lasts 6.5 hours web browsing on a 6 cell battery, 25Wh less than the one in my Macbook.

>x260 gets 20 hours
Would never buy a 13" macbook pro for twice as much.
>>
>>56234662
I get 6 to 7 on my T420 w/ 9cell (i7-2620m, iGPU)
>>
>>56236231
Nope, Safari. I get around 3.5-5 hours with Chrome.

You don't own a MacBook

Speaking of that, how's the x230? I can't get a x220 for cheap in my country, but I might me able to get a x230.
>>
>>56236372
Yes I do.
>>
>>56236456
Almost the same.
It has slightly better battery life, much better Graphics and the keyboard is a lot more comfortable to type on, but the keyboard layout is really shit for workflow thanks to shitty placement of some keys.

>>56233250
Youre mac a shit.

Something wrong, there. The time on battery remaining should be fairly accurate, if slow to respond to changing loads.
>>
>>56236485
It was accurate back in Mavericks, but Yosemite and El Cap has been a lot heavier on Retina Macbooks, so the calculation algorithm no longer works good, iStat works fine though and is very accurate.

No, they just ruin battery life.

>my first bait thread
Serious answer: Retina Macbook Pro has a ULV processor, meanwhile, the X220 has a full voltage one.
I had a Sandy Macbook Pro for a while and the performance between my thinkpad and that machine where more or less similar.
