If this is the same version I bought about 4 years ago. Mine still has a battery life of about 5+ hours. Mine came with a wall charger. I recommend getting a car charger as well. Not sure if it was included, I've had this thing for a long time...

Yes you can definitely watch a 2 to 3 hour movie--you can probably easily do five hours with it. Yes it does charge into the wall.

The battery life is about 2 and a half hours. It is sold with a wall charger. If you are watching something and the battery is about to die, it will flash a warning box so that you can plug in the wall charger and not interrupt your movie.

experienced a 4 hour battery life. So. you can watch a 2-3 hour movie. Mine did come with a wall charger.

It depends on what you do. I usually use it for watching movies or shows, and it usually lasts around 3-4 hours. Other wise, if I'm using it for social networking or just browsing, around 5-6 hours.

Sorry, haven't really noticed. My kids can go through a whole movie with some battery life left.

Let it charge for 8 hours before first use. I watched about 3 movies and still didn't drain the battery

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.

Sorry Hollie to take so long in responding. I bought the unit for my Dad, and he states that he watches the movies with it plugged in and charging at the same time. From the day he received the unit until now he's been well pleased with the product.

battery life was a few days if I only took pictures but an hour or less if I took video. Cant charge it with your computer. Does come with a wall charger

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!

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)

Hi Lawrence, In a wall charger it takes about an hour, mAH is 4900. Just be aware this is a large battery and adds a bit of bulk to my Sony Handycam.

Hmmm, good question. I don't really know because many times we have it plugged in when we use it. However, it has never died on us while we don't have it plugged it. At least the duration of a movie.

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

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.

Wow thats crazy, my daughter uses hers for 6 to 7 hours straight, on netflix,youtube,games or apps. She doesnt put it down, she does EVERYTHING on it and only has to fully charge it at night before going to bed, that takes a couple hours though, at least 2 but not sure. If yours is only good for 3 hours thats a big problem , thats not even half of how long its supossed to go, usually when a product says the battery lasts a certain amount its usually not even close to that but I was very surprised when ours actually lasted the 7 hours it promised, and Im telling you its on streaming videos and movies for the hole 7 hours and it has never shut down,the lowest it got was 8% and than it took hours to fully charge it again.

battery life is good (Haven't done an exact measurement, but it seems like I recharge about every 3 or 4 days). It has an automatic sleep function that preserves the battery life. Full charge in about 2 hours.

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.
