Someone put the Nintendo Switch's battery to the test

When they revealed the Switch, Nintendo also revealed the portable console's possible battery lifespan. They estimated somewhere between two and a half to six hours of battery life, depending on settings and what you're running, of course.

YouTube channel GameXplain put that assessment to the test, pushing the console's settings to the max (brightness, sound, wifi on) and letting The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild run on the Switch until the console entered sleep mode. Their console survived for two hours and twenty eight minutes, right up to Nintendo's lowest estimation.

So if you find yourself stuck on a plane itching to play the new Zelda, don't forget to turn your screen's brightness down first.
