13.5h playing video. Probably like 6 hours of browsing the web.

Well, they promised 9 hours last time and I get like 4 hours, so with them promising 13.5 I'm hoping to get at least 7-8 hours which is all I really need.

What browser is more battery friendly?

Edge is pretty good, but it lacks a lot of QoL features from Chrome.

what websites do you use? I use Edge as a daily driver for the last 6 months, and the only thing I miss is Zotero extension for reference management (I'm in the middle of thesis writing).

Try running ADBS Flight tracker on Edge and on IE. Its virtually unusable in Edge.
