    Can anyone explain how this is different from Power Nap on Macs? I’ve never heard anyone upset about that.

      LTT had a great video on that. Basically Windows has a bug which sometimes prevents this sleep mode from working correctly and that nukes battery life. Microsoft has promised a fix, but apparently it’s not resolved still. In theory it should work exactly the same as Power Nap. It sometimes does, but sometimes - not so much.

      P.S. Power Nap used to be buggy as well, but Apple fixed it years ago.
