On the note of OLED increasing battery life, does anyone know the max number of hours of gameplay you can get on a single charge when the game is as simple as "snake"?

I have searched for answers on reddit and Google etc but I have only found the number to be 8hrs which is not for low power games. Given steam runs Linux and is hacker friendly, one should be able to juice it for much much longer if only early retro games are played.

8hr sounds accurate. There’s a wattage slider and you can only set it so low. You might be able to get more out of using the desktop and forcing some idle modes, however it’s impressive enough as is at a few watts and many hours on a portable Linux machine occupying less total space than a 13” laptop.
