Which Laptops Will Utilize Haswell's Efficiency?

[EpicFruit]

One of the key features about Intel's new Haswell CPUs is that they are much more power efficient than anything else on their performance level. Intel's aim at the mobile market with this feature is very obvious, as the much reduced power consumption will enable laptops to have longer battery life. But the laptops I've seen on the market so far all focus on gaming, with a dedicated GPU and 3 hour battery life. When and where should I expect to see manufacturers release office laptops that run cool and quiet with unprecedented battery life?

Tablets ;)

Longer lasting ultra books for traveling. I'm in the market for an ultra book to do slight editing when I'm traveling overseas and having a Haswell cpu would be killer.

Definitely regular laptops, ultrabooks and tablets.

Any mobile device using a Haswell CPU without a dedicated GPU (or a with a GPU that can completely turn off) will have pretty respectable power consumption.

so far the new razer blade is the only one i have seen with an expected 6 hours of battery life i believe it was the 14 inch will be pretty interesting to see the result

i would be pretty impressed if the ultra books all of a sudden have 10+ hours of battery life but with the claim 50% more battery life it should be that way

Ultra books run 4-5 hours at the moment so 6-7 hours seems more realistic

I have seen quoted out there for 7-8 hours assuming its like buying a car branded for 40mpg it really gets 34 mpg, not to far off to see "specsheet" at ten.

Which ultra books are you referring to? If I knew they were at that battery life I would have bought one already lol

Any mobile device these days will benefit from a Haswell chip really. Laptops, Ultrabooks and tablets will benefit the most.
