I bought mine in June 2013 for my husband. He does not use it much and I bet it doesn't have 5 hrs usage. It will not turn on unless its plugged up.

Hi. I own the same tablet and I don't have too much problems with it. It may have two and a half hrs battery time depending on if your on the internet or not. No internet longer battery time. Maybe the occasional reboot by itself and maybe a bit slow but that's because of the amount of apps I have on it. But no real major problems. I hoped this helped.

I have played the unit for a good two hours with the battery. I almost always have it plugged in when I view it. I would see about returning the battery, or getting a new unit. Thats what I like about Amazon, I have never had a problem with a return or replacement.

Add me to the list - not sure when it started, a few weeks ago we noticed it b/c we charged it and then it was dead. Figured it got bumped in wife's purse or hadn't charged long enough but now I've been trying to charge it and see the on/off cycling going on. No answer, just sympathy and hope for a fix!

Mine lasted about a month then it stopped working at all...totally dead, caput, gone. The solar power didn't last long. I got rid of it and replaced it with a Sony. Good luck!

You should not have to charge it that long.There must be a proablem with it.2 hrs worked with mine.Try another plug otherwise send it back

Charge it for a while and then try to use it. You can use it while it is plugged up

I think it may be important to make sure it is fully charged initially, but a shorter charge will work, but it may not run as long. I keep mine plugged in all the time, so it is fully charged anytime I need it. I've had it about 3 years and have never had a problem.

It probably needs a full charge. Make sure you let it charge overnight then it should be good for 2 or so hours on high setting and 7 ish hours on low setting.

I'm not typical...I use my laptop only occasionally and it stays plugged in most of the time. However, I did test the battery when it arrived and I got about 4 hours out it with light usage.

I've used mine for several hours. I havent timed it but I've been very happy with my purchase. They will also provide a light beep to let you know before they die to plug them in.

Mine stopped working as well. It lasted for about 6 months. Sometimes it decides to turn on. When it does, after some time, it flickers on and off and then shuts off completely.I have a second one, that's just as old, that is working perfectly fine.... for now.

I have the older one , but it has died already . It might have 10 hours of use . I am going to try to send it back . So I can't recomend it anymore .

When mine was new(september 2014), it would go for around 30 hours of use. Now, I get about 2 or 3 hours out of it. I am very disappointed in it. I don't know if I just got a dud, or if they are just lower quality and wear out fast.

Check the Battery. It's been working great for me. I use it 5 times a week.

Mine was working great after few hours charging. After a year and half, it did not charge like yours. I used to buy used one and used every week, so I gues it died. I used for long and good. But if it is new, then you need refund it

Not that long! If it's only working when plugged in, something is wrong. It also holds a charge for quite sometime. I can't remember the last time I charged mine (though I only use it sporadically).

Make sure it is fully charged before you turn it on. Mine worked for only a few weeks though.
