Hi Gregory,I have had mine for several months now and have absolutely no issues with it. Battery life might not be as good as some would like (4 - 6 hours, depending upon specific use), but mine stays mostly plugged in, so it is really a non-issue for me. I use mine for work, have produced a few videos with it just to compare it with my desktop system, and use it in conjunction with Chromecast to watch high definition movies on my large screen TV. The 17" display on the laptop is very good at watching high definition movies from short distances. There may be better units out there, but I am not disappointed at all with this one.

Battery lasts on average 10 hours regular usage. Less playing movies. Not sure how many cells. I am very pleased with the performance

I haven't had mine long so I haven't worn the battery down, but in-the-box new my laptop has been lasting about 4 hours while playing Steam games, so it's pretty decent.

As I recall, the battery charge lasted about one movie. I used it with the battery and on the adapter maybe 6 times--it died the same week the warranty ran out.

It depends on what you are doing. Down loading a movie via a hotel WiFi - the laptop and ext battery both died.

mauri88, I don't use this computer so I can't give you an exact statement on battery life. However, I bought my daughter this 14" screen HP Envy with 8 gigs of ram. Upon receiving it I immediately removed the factory hard drive and installed a Toshiba 512 Gig SSD. My daughter uses her HP Envy for hours on the battery. I have never heard her complain about her Envy battery's charge running out. She really likes her 14" screen HP Envy.

Mine lasts about 7~8 hours for regular use when I use the Quite Office Setting.I know it's still better than any other laptops as to battery life.

I test the battery when I just get it. I put a movie on repeat play over the night . I got 9 HOURS continously play.

I don't know exactly how long the battery lasts (it said up to four hours in the book) but I enjoy movies on it in the evening and I never have problems with the battery running down. I have worked from it in other areas (unplugged) and it certainly keeps me on long enough.

Battery is good, which can firmly last around 5hrs, more than 2 full movies

I love netflix, so I watch movies all the time on my battery and it last through two and a half leaving about 71% and if you continue watching like a half hour show or something it goes down to about 65%. So its very good with battery, especially if you lower the brightness with energy saver.

I am not sure of exactly how long but it seems to be about 2 hours or so. I have actually never timed it. This is an older laptop my kids use for games so that might be why the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Hope this helps! :)
