Need help improving battery life (programming.dev)

Supposedly, this ASUS Zenbook 14 should get up to 6 hours of battery life on Win11, but it drains from 80 to 25% in a few hours of just browsing. How can I improve it?

AFAIK one should also drain the battery to zero once a month and charge it fully (100%!) to recalibrate the battery capacity.

You can and should use then the device to get below 80% again.
