These are not absolute, Microsoft not require manufacturers to design some lines like Intel with its strict Ultrabook, and variations may occur in more or less.

Interesting are the figures relating to the autonomy of these models. Based products currently being finalized, Microsoft says that we can expect between 8 and 13 hours of HD video, while the standby period will vary between 320 and 409 hours.
