Jerry Beilinson:

The MacBook Pro battery life results were highly inconsistent from one trial to the next.

For instance, in a series of three consecutive tests, the 13-inch model with the Touch Bar ran for 16 hours in the first trial, 12.75 hours in the second, and just 3.75 hours in the third. The 13-inch model without the Touch Bar worked for 19.5 hours in one trial but only 4.5 hours in the next. And the numbers for the 15-inch laptop ranged from 18.5 down to 8 hours.

Those were just a few of the results; we tested battery life on these laptops repeatedly.

Expecting my replacement MacBook Pro 13″ with Touch Bar today. If things don’t improve, I was going to swap it out for a non-Touch Bar model, but now starting to consider getting the 2015 MacBook Pro.

This is unbelievable.
