They are trying to trick you. All reviewers are told by Intel to run benchmarks in max performance mode and battery either in balanced or max efficiency mode. These modes will throttle. So the performance you're seeing in reviews aren't achievable in battery mode unless you're ok with drastically lower battery life. Meanwhile, PCWorld is one of the few that actually ran benchmarks while on battery life - which is what people will experience. |
