System76 has refreshed its thin-and-light take on Linux laptops, the company announced Tuesday, as spotted by Tom's Hardware. The revamped 14-inch Lemur Pro, like its predecessors, prioritizes a longer battery life, with the latest model claiming up to 14 hours of use.

System76 didn't detail how it tested the laptop's battery life (we've asked and will update this article if we hear back). But the Lemur Pro has a proven reputation for solid battery life. In our Lemur Pro review in 2020, when the machine was offered with an Intel Core i7-10510U, it lasted at least one hour longer than any other laptop we reviewed around that time when playing BBC's "10 Hours of Relaxing Oceanscapes" at 1080p resolution and max brightness.

It was clear that System76 had fine-tuned the machine more for longevity between charges than productivity performance.
