This GPU uses the open driver (which comes integrated in the linux kernel); therefore, support by the proprietary driver ended in 2015.

Natively, deepin only uses Integrated GPU (Intel Graphics). The AMD GPU can only be accessed manually - because the Graphics Driver Manager - still - doesn't recognize it.

As for the battery... The autonomy in Linux is lower compared to Windows. I would also like deepin to improve in this part; It leaves much to be desired.
