i just tested it out with Netflix and got 5.5 hours on it. I guess I also did some browsing, too. So it would easily go for 6 hours.

I suppose it depends on how intensively it's used. I play games for about 30 minutes every day and the charge lasts about 4 days. Streamed video for more than 1 hour and it might have consumed 40% of battery life.

The write up on this battery said it would last around three hours but I've found that using the energy saving mode on my laptop gets me around six hours of surfing the web before having to recharge. Movies, playing music and other functions can eat away at that time but for the most part it holds a charge very well. I've had the battery for over a year and it hasn't slacked off a bit. Great Buy!!!

I haven't tried to run it all the way down since the laptop is usually stationery except if I move around the house with it but I know will last at least 35-40 minutes and not still had around half battery according the battery meter on the taskbar. This is the 2nd battery I have purchased. The 1st one was for a laptop for my mom a while ago and it's still working but again that laptop is not used that much off house power. For $20 bucks I'm satisfied

It really depends on the work you do. I can easily watch two complete movies and still have some battery left. About internet and web browsing.. kind of 6 hours straight. When i use it for different things along the day... i usually have to recharge it every two days (not heavy user obviously)

A couple of hours at most. My only criticism is that there's no on-screen warning that battery power is low. When it's out of power it just shuts off. Had mine over a year now; altho figuring out/finding some of the settings/controls is sort of quirky. considering the screen size and price I'm satisfied. It's held up better than I expected. And I like that I can play DVD's different regions.

Have used it for mostly video and the charge would last several days. Didn't have any problems with battery.

A few hours (I haven't clocked it), I think. I've watched a movie and then a tv show afterward. The cool thing is that you can plug it in to charge while you're using it, so that works great!

I haven't done a test (like running movies for hours to clock the battery life), but I would say about 6-7 hours of use. I use it a lot, but only need to charge the battery every 2 days or so. No battery gets used when it's off, either (I know that sounds silly) - for example, I had charged it fully and the. Had it in my bag for 3 days before taking it out to use it, an the battery was still charged to 100%. So far, great battery life. Hope that helps.

It´s no more than 4.5 hrs. I looked at the customers reviews before I buy it so I knew the battery life had not the best average. But I´m still very happy with my purchase, its a great laptop.

I've watched 2 movies on it without charging. That is as far as I have tried.

Mine lasted longer. It probably depends on what you were doing with the laptop. My daughter uses it all day at the hospital. Were you streaming video constantly (uses both network and drive storage)? That would drain your battery faster.

About 6 hours if you are watching movies on it, 4 hours f your gaming, if you are just surfing the web about 7 hours.

I haven't really counted an exact time but I'll say this:There was a two week period where I had it charged up, I went two weeks without charging again with 2-3 hours a week sitting basically idle in class and several hours of Netflix twice a week. It's plenty of battery from a full charge, especially compared to the stock one. It is absolutely adequate and well worth the money, you won't regret this one.I should add that I am on an HP Pavilion G6-1b60us with an AMD A4 and replacing the factory HDD with a Samsung 840 Evo SSD (so reduced power consumption over the stock HDD there, I'm sure, but not sure by how much) I haven't really counted an exact time but I'll say this:There was a two week period where I had it charged up, I went two weeks without charging again with 2-3 hours a week sitting basically idle in class and several hours of Netflix twice a week.

About3 to 4 hours. Battery isn't a strong point here. I didn't buy it to use the battery however, so I'm pleased with it. Really a grade A laptop. I'm sure this varies based on task and performance settings.

I haven't timed it exactly either. But I can get through 3-4 movies (balanced settings) and still have half battery life. Hope this helps!

Battery life is pretty good. You can watch a full length movie on a full battery and still have power left in it..I would read some other reviews also..remember it is a 17inch LED and has beefy fans etc. So there are a few things going on..generally really quiet conversely.
