Executive summary
Acer commissioned Principled Technologies (PT) to run
BAPCo’s MobileMark 2007 Productivity 2007 battery life
benchmark test on the Acer Aspire Timeline 4810TZ
notebook system in its out-of-the-box (OOB) configuration.
The goal of the testing was to gauge the battery life that
buyers would experience. Acer specified and provided the
test system. PT set up the system and executed all tests.
We measured system battery life using BAPCo’s
MobileMark 2007 Productivity 2007 test. MobileMark 2007
Productivity 2007 is an industry-standard benchmark that provides a battery life rating and a performance rating
based on common office scenarios. In our tests, we focus solely on the battery life rating. MobileMark 2007
Productivity 2007 includes applications
and workloads specific to notebook
systems, such as office activities like
file and document management, data
processing, and rich content creation.
This module provides a score for
battery life of the tested applications.
As Figure 1 shows, with a standard
5,800 mAh, 6-cell battery, the Acer
Aspire Timeline 4810TZ produced a
battery life score of 8 hours 49
minutes.
The Workload section details the
specific applications the MobileMark
2007 Productivity 2007 test uses, the
Test results section shows the test
results in more detail, and the Test
methodology section explains how we
ran the tests. Appendix A details the
system configurations.
As Figure 2 shows, the battery with
which the notebook produced these
scores is standard size; the notebook
case fully contains the battery.
