What is the average life of the actual device (not the battery but the durability of the device)

I received my first one for Christmas and it lasted 3 months. I returned it and got a replacement as it was covered under warranty. That one lasted 3 months. I replaced it once again and that one has now stopped working, some kind of short in it. I know CRAZY right.......but I love this device for swimming laps. So I am now looking and doing research on a better unit. Any suggestions???

Mine lasted 2 months. Took great care of it and yet it stoped working so fast. Your better off with the Sony brand

Not replacable? Bummer! My unit is 2-3 years old and battery life is down to about 10 hours or less now. I had no idea I was expected to throw away a perfectly well functioning device for lack of a battery. This seems crazy!

As long as device stays in craddle it should last long time. It does come with extra battery

I've had my Lenovo since June and almost exclusively keep it plugged in. I used the battery a couple of times but only for a short period. So, I really can't comment on the battery life. However, I do understand that it's good for only 2 hours or so. I've read other complaints about that. Also, can't comment on the battery replacement issue. Sorry!

Mine has been going over 6 months, still over 90% battery life, used daily.

I used to get about 12-15 days when new. However, as the battery has gotten older, its life has gone to 8-10 days. And li-ion batteries just die without warning.

I'm not sure. It's not a rechargeable device. I've been using mine for at least four months and it still works fine off the original battery. I'm guessing a year at least.

I had one last about 3 years and I'd say it had at most 40 hours on it. I have others that are still working, but at these prices, there should be absolutely no failures at all - no excuses!

I've never had mine die on me but I've taken it for a six hour trip and it had about 25% battery power afterwards so I'd guess maybe about eight hours in total.

I imagine the warranty is the same as on the device itself. But all batteries wear out and wear down. I find that after two years my batteries do not last as long as they once did. Hope this helps.

Jenny, I should also tell you that I purchased this device about 3 months ago and it just died on me. I am purchasing 2 more one to use and the other as a spare as I'm not sure about the life of the device.

I think it's the standard (90) day or possibly one-year. My first one failed rather quickly after the purchase so when I returned (shipped back to manufacturer) there wasn't any dispute. The replacement one is still working for the most part but still the quality isn't spectacular.

3 years. Be aware that batteries are not user replaceable but will probably last 5 years. This was the one drawback I found. Great device though with the "Eco" outlets.

The battery lasted about as long as most. I bought a back up, so I never worried.

The batteries average life is 1 to 2 years. Usually after 6 months of use, it will start to give you less mileage per charge.

Don't know, but mine only lasted six months of very light usage. It was nice while it lasted.

Don't know actual battery life on device(never kept track) but probably not going to last long enough for what you want.
