I get 3-3.5 under Fedora and the 'Power Saver' gnome power profile, but yeah it's not great.

Make sure you are on the latest PPD - this matters and provides a noticeable improvement. https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mariolimonciello/pow... and you are on at least kernel 6.6.12.
I'm running with this setup and getting at least 5h, I haven't measured it recently but it's definitely makes a difference!
The defaults should work. What’s the point in buying a Linux-branded laptop if they can’t get the basics right?
It's not Linux-branded to be fair (they label it as a "DIY" device that ships with no OS), but yeah.. I'm not really one to deviate too far from the defaults on a device I use for work.
