I want good battery efficiency on my tablets as well, and I doubt any Android tablet could match that. It's a tablet for god's sake, the whole point is to not have to tether it to a power outlet for any prolonged duration of work.



Every Android tablet I've ever had has done maybe 2 days worth of "work" for me.

I use mine on and off through the day, about half an hour at lunch time, and for a few hours continuously each night.

I charge mine when it gets below 50% so usually every second day. It's really not a burden.

Battery life of Android tablets is fine.

Likely not as good as an iPad in that regard, but an iPad can't do the things I want to do, so there's that.
