Good question, I think the answer is even at thousands a window device battery can't hit 18 hour specs. Can someone name a windows device even at 2k+ that acts like an M chip? In fact the pricier windows usually mean GPU and those have worse battery then cheap windows(my 4090 is an hour or so off charge)

Thinkpad X250, admittedly at max specs, did 21 hours in 2018. My T470 from 2020 did over 27 hours at max charge.

M-series Macs is when MacBooks stopped sucking at battery life without sleeping and wrecking state every moment they could.
