Surface Book 3 Battery Life

I am trying to find out how long the battery on my Microsoft Surface Book 3 should be lasting.

I purchased the SB3 when it was released and it have used for general home use (office, email, browsing), occasional gaming via the cloud, but nothing intensive or strenuous for the device. Battery life is less than the advertised 15.5 hours when the tablet and the base are connected, but only slightly. However, the life of the battery in the tablet device only, is poor, I'm lucky to get 3 hours.

Is this battery life acceptable or is there an issue.

Device details below:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1065G7 CPU @ 1.30GHz 1.50 GHz

Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.6 GB usable)

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Edition Windows 11 Home

Version 21H2

    Hi,

    I recently bought the Surface go 3 and it is advertised as 11.5 hours, but I am lucky to even get 3 hours while doing some basic work. So kind of in the same boat as you. :(
