I actually just want them to fix connected standby and properly be able to do these things with low power.

My phone (a oneplus 6) can be on standby for nearly a week. That windows laptops attempt at this mode drains the battery by the end of a workday is just pathetic. Instant resume should be available with no practical compromises.

That is seriously bad.

Just as a data point, my 2019 mac sleeps perfectly for multiple days, no problem.

My 2019 Razer Blade does the same.
