My hp is 6-8 hours, near instant boot. Both are common. The mythical "Linux laptop with this kind of quality" you speak of is widely available

Nice! Would love to know more about it. I've had a pretty poor experience so it really could be just me. Would you be up for sharing what the laptop model+specs are?
It's a HP Spectre x360 running Windows 10. Intel Core i7 (I forget exactly which one but you can google it), 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Intel HD 4400 Graphics

The site claims 12.5 hours battery. I've gotten close to that on one occasion but real-world usage is nearer to 6-8 hours like I said.
