New Latitude 7390 - i5 vs i7 Battery Life
Does anyone have a battery life comparison on the new 8th generation 13" 7390s? I am configuring my first one for a user and I see both i5 and i7 as choices.
I have my doubts the user will truly notice a performance difference between the i5 and the i7, so I'm curious if there's a difference in battery life between the two, and if so what is the average full charge to empty battery life for each of them?

Both CPUs have identical power requirements - so the draw on the battery will be the same.
If you look at the review below, the battery runtime appears to be quite impressive.

We bought the larger battery offered and it charges in about 1:45 from 5% to 100%. The larger battery has very impressive battery life of 9-12 hours of web browsing type usage.
From other machines I would think the battery life wouldn't be too different between them. I would also add the new 8th gen i5 is quite powerful, in fact it is faster than an i7 laptop we bought 1.5 years ago...
