PCSpecialist Defiance III 17.3 Laptop (w/ GTX 1060)

To test the battery life of a laptop, we use PCMark 8’s in-built battery benchmark – which loops its ‘Home’ benchmark until the battery fails. We do this with the screen brightness set at 50%.

A time of 2:43, for a gaming laptop such as the Defiance III, is actually pretty decent. I would suggest this score is down to the greater efficiency of Pascal as compared to older architectures. A rough, real-world battery life of about 5 hours can be expected.

  1. Damn. Putting desktop Pascals aside, the new generation of mobile gpus is basically a revolution, especially incredibly well balanced power consumption to performance wise 1060. Simply brilliant!

  3. 21 pages of review and barely any mention of the quality of screen they’ve used. It’s such a huge factor in choosing a laptop; how on earth did you manage to overlook it?!

    I hope someone’s given you that feedback already between writing this and now!
