[QUOTE="imfromwales, post: 1653914, member: 299959"] Both were fully charged to 100%, and as the movie started playing, I unplugged the charger. No other apps were running, nor any background processes like Dropbox uploads... I chose the 1400x900 setting as I was going to do a test on all three settings, but I didn't get a chance to do the third this evening, so I'll do it tomorrow, and see if it is much better than the 78%. If it's not considerably better, then I feel that a 22% battery drop is acceptable on full brightness, and 13/16 volume for a one hour movie, no? [/QUOTE]
