Malakas ba sa battery ang RAM? Nag upgrade kasi ako from 8 to 16 GB, pansin ko mas mabilis sya ma drain ngayon. Ganon pa rin naman ang usage ko, no new apps. Or nataon lang na pa decline na rin ang battery ko?

Generally, more silicon, more power consumption.

Did you add a 2nd stick of RAM (8GB + 8GB) or did you replace 1x 8GB for 1x 16GB stick?

Ano ba difference in battery life, before and after? Pero kung memory lang, did dapat significant yung change.

Pinalitan ko 1 stick from 8 to 16, 1 slot lang kasi siya. Parang ung dating 3 hours ko to low batt, 2 hours na lang ngayon

A stick of DDR4 or DDR5 only consumes 2 watts, that should have a negligible difference in battery life

There are tutorials on how to check battery wear for a Windows laptop, it will show a percentage and battery usage log

Seems like exciting development on processor. The new qualcomm oryon cpu can compete with apple's m1.

Most laptop manufacturer will use this chip in the future. Hold off on upgrading your laptops, it seems a lot of development and competition will happen next year or so.

Yup, lalo na kung windows use ka at hindi member ng apple ecosystem.

Any recommended notebook nowadays with a budget of around <=45k? Econ student with occasional need for video editing. I was looking for ideapad, only to find out that the delivery is around 4weeks pa(via lenovo site), thus I cancelled my order. Tia.
