I can confirm this; gnome power manager seems to calculate the battery
lifetime by averaging discharge rate over a period of time. It seems
that this value is also taken into account while the laptop is still
plugged in. This is leading to a higher battery lifetime estimation.
When you click on your battery symbol directly after unplugging, you can
see a discharge rate that is too low.

Discharge rate in the ubuntu-notification shows a different, more
accurate value.

This bug is not so bad as the estimation is updated soon, but this
prevents the system from being "perfect".
