its great 4 me! Just make sure u turn it off by hand and dont leave it on standby. I did that once and it died. I've charged it a few times. I use it @ work only and my battery life was only 1 bar down after 7 hrs. All i do is listen to music i dont know if it drains faster doing other things. Hope this helps.

I'm not totally certain about the battery life. I left mine on using it here and there through the day and it well into the evening before I had to plug it in again. I also know that I left in sleep mode for over a week and it still had about 70% battery left it. It impressed me how long it would hold its battery power

For normal use the laptop gives you 2 hours and half, and for extreme use just like an hour, now for the battery life I think is larger than 2 year, since I bought this laptop in september of 2012 and the battery died at november 2014, but I have been using it in very extreme conditions for like 16 hours a day every day since I bought it, playing video games, editing videos, hydrological modelling, running virtual machines and it never defraud me.

I can't give you any idea about battery life because I use this computer at my home desk, plugged in most of the time. But I can tell you I've been very happy with this purchase.

I've had it for about a month now and it still runs good as new. Battery life lasts about a week if used constantly.

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.

The battery life is pretty decent. You can probably get about 2 hours or more depending on if it is heavy use or light. The battery once it is completely discharged takes about 3 hours. Youll know it is fully charged because the blue light will show a full glow instead of just half. The battery has a built in feature to keep it from overcharging so you can leave it on the charging base when not in use. I love it because it is powerful enough to get a good clean without all the cords.

normal use being reading and sending e-mails, plus working with word documents, Evernote and browsing? the battery life is around 9 to 10 hours. if however you watch videos and play games, the battery life is around 3 to 4 hours.

Hi. I have owned this laptop for a couple of months now and it is amazing. The average battery life I am getting while running wifi and having the brightness about 3/4 bright, I am getting 5 1/2 hours. With wifi off running regular programs like Word, Excel and Powerpoint, I am getting about 6-6/12 hours. Amazing battery life

I should add to my previous response that the battery life on a full charge is at least 8 hours.

Battery life is pretty good... A whole day if your actually using it.. I've left it sitting and it's lasted around 3 weeks without usage on one charge.

I cant be specific about the battery life but I can say satisfactory, at least. It was ready when i needed it most.

It depends on your performance settings and what you're doing on the laptop. I use mine with high performance and generally use light programs (MS Office) and web browsing and it generally lasts about 2-4 hours depending. The life of the battery can extend quite beyond that I believe by turning off features and downgrading performance, but I have not really explored those features fully.

It's like any other smartphone; it'l last days if you use it for nothing more than voice calls. If you use the GPS and 4G radios a lot, you'll drain it down in less than a day.My overall judgment of the battery life would be Decent - Good.

Its a pretty long time. I charge it occasionally, but it has never died on me while I was using it.

I've had mine about a year, my husband has had his for just a month or two. I watch some videos but mostly read books or look at bbc news or pinterest so brightness is up about halfway most of the time. I think it lasy fully charged for about two or three hours using it nonstop. Longer if im reading books already downloaded (like on the plane) chrged in about a 45min or so if its turned off, little slower in airplane mode. Note the brightness and things like gps location and wifi searching constantly use power in the background just like your phone! Turn off everything your not using :)

Maybe 2 hours on battery saving mode if your lucky. If battery life is a concern I'd look elsewhere. This computer is mostly a desktop replacement.
