Long answer: depends on software/use, so the only measurable comparison between any machines is idle power consumption.
Min brightness: 5 Watts/16.5 hours
Half brightness: 5.3 Watts/15.6 hours
Full brightness: 7.7 Watts/10.7 hours
In my experience, basic lightweight desktop apps or web browsing, at half brightness, you will get 80% to 100% of a laptop's full brightness idle power draws, so in this case, a usable 8-10 hours. Doing something more intensive will depend on the Wattage you pull for those tasks - bogging down 2 CPU cores under turbo will consume another 20W of power, which will reduce the 80Wh battery to 3-4 hours of runtime. Playing a game with the GPU burning 60W and CPU at 20W, you'd have under an hour. Mine had 82.7Wh of new -battery capacity.
Anyway, those were the numbers I logged when I briefly owned this laptop. The CPU will maintain 4.7GHz all-core under stress testing, pulling 60W of power in Performance mode, 54W/4.6GHz in balanced mode, and 50W/4.4GHz in quiet mode. With 100W USB-PD as a power source, it will peak at 45W CPU TDP for 4.3-4.4GHz all-core load. The zen4 6-core 7640HS is as fast, and faster in some workloads, as the zen3 8-core CPUs.
It's a good machine, and zen4 is a nice improvement over zen3. There's nothing to dislike about this "value" 6-core chip - it's fast, and the GTX4060 is a sweet spot for 2023 laptops. Full dual-stick RAM upgradability too, and mine had zero backlight bleed, or any other panel issues.
