How long does your 3DS (XL) last?
I've decided to do some informal testing with my newly-acquired 3DS XL, and what better way to measure it than to do it while playing through Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity (off a SD card, not a cart) while I'm not done with the game?
I've noticed that...
At brightness 3, Wi-Fi turned on, power saving off, and set to 2D, I get exactly 7 hours before the battery indicator turns critical.
At brightness 5 (which isn't locked to charging only, unlike the 3DS which had different brightness 4 and 5 while unplugged), and everything else left the same, I get exactly 5 hours before the same thing happens.
I have about 15 minutes between the battery indicator turning 1 bar/low/red to blinking/critical.
I'm going to test how long it can go at brightness 1, power saving on, and everything unnecessary turned off. Who knows, maybe it'll hit double digits!
What about everyone else? (Try measuring things with a stopwatch (app).)
