Is the battery life of a laptop really a maximum of 10 hours? see: https://www.productindetail.com/pn/acer-aspire-vero-av14-51. I find it somehow not enough and it discourages me a bit from buying.

    It all depends what programs and apps are installed, what runs at the background, is your brightness set at 120 nits (60%) are you browsing or streaming on the internet and is Windows battery saver permanently on. For the average user a more realistic battery life span is 5 hours. You may get 10 hours battery life if you use Windows Power Saver Plan, limit your browsing without playing any music/videos and tweak the settings in Windows11 Energy savings. Even so, batteries degrade with time and after a couple of months those 10 hours battery life will be no longer feasible. You can try to extend laptop battery life with a Baseus Blade 100-Watt power bank
