The M1 MBP? That is what I am using (1TB/16GB model) and I easily get the 17 hours stated for web use. Even doing development in Xcode I can go 13-15 hours. It is the most impressed I have been with a laptop since the introduction of multi-core mobile CPUs.

What display brightness are you using? When I bought my M1 MBP it had a setting that made the display darker when I am not plugging it, but in reality when I'm outside on the sun, that's when I really need it to be bright. Still, even if I get 10-14 hours, I love it (also the fact that I can use 1 charger for almost all of my devices).

I am usually around 50-60%. I don't work outside though so never need to crank it up. I find it automatically adjusts it fine.
