yes because the 6200u is 15w tdp and 6y30 is 4.5w, makes sense?
Dan (11:22 AM, May 30, 2017)
Even though the performance per hour is better for the m3, all reviews and unboxings claim that the battery lasts less than on an i5. The device I was following was the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and the m3 reached 6 hours, while the i5 reached 9.
