Guessing Battery Life isn't the same as Testing It
You're getting the same battery time as Mossberg and many others got so it could be concluded that 3.5hrs at conservative power is standard.

But anyway, the Ogrady observations is at least more accurate and trustworthy than Mossberg's silly butt kissing "guestimate".

[from Mossberg Review]
"In my standard battery test, where I disable all power-saving features, set the screen brightness at maximum, turn on the Wi-Fi and play an endless loop of music, the MacBook Air's battery lasted 3 hours, 24 minutes. That means you could likely get 4.5 hours in a normal work pattern, almost the five hours Apple claims."
