Battery life
We've already learned how dynamic FSB switching, dynamic acceleration and Turbo Memory all contribute to prolonging battery life, but there's more. Intel has added an 'Enhanced Deeper Sleep' idle state, which lets the Core 2 Duo CPU go into super-lazy mode when it isn't doing anything.
Crave's test results
With every new generation of laptop, Intel generally strives to increase performance while keeping battery life the same, or extending it slightly. That again seems to be the case with Santa Rosa. Our test laptop scored highly in core performance and graphics tests, yet its battery life is solid if not mind-boggling. It lasted 74 minutes in our BatteryEater test, which is very good considering how quick it is.
