Battery life is disappointing. I just got this, and it lasts somewhere around 13-15 minutes on a full charge.

Fully charged it now says 4 hours and 5 minutes. Actual time depends on what I am using the computer for. Overall, I am pleased with the battery life.

2.5 hours is a long time. I have to keep mine plugged in constantly. The battery is terrible on this thing. After 6 months of use its even worse.

It's pretty good... I got up to 2 days use with mine without charging. And when I gave it to my friend in Africa.. He never complained about battery life despite the fact their wasn't steady power supply where he lives.

I like to use the brightness at full and with the Wi-Fi on, if I browse, email, etc, I think it lasts me around 3-4 hours. The battery life isn't too impressive on this laptop..

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.

I'm not sure on the battery life, if that's what you're asking, or how the build quality is. Build quality is ok, nothing too nice. Battery's are built in and rechargeable.

Battery life is about three hours on constantly . I know this because I used it this long while recently tracking a deer in the rain

Battery is supposed to last about 8 hours but can vary depending on volume, etc. I haven't really pushed it that far to see if it will last that long.

The battery on mine can last for about 2 hours with Wi-Fi turned on. There are three different USB slots (one on the side, two in the back).

Where did you hear that? Of course not. I use mine daily and it usually lasts for 2-3 days based on my reading, web surfing and emailing activity. I let the battery completely run down after I first charged it and it lasted almost 11 hours. On average I get at least 10 hours of active use on it, but I usually charge it every three days.

Battery life is fair. It depends on usage. 3-4 hours can be used when it fuly charged.

For me, so far, it has been lasting just about 2-3 hours on a full charge. Almost 1 year of usage so I do keep it plugged in when not in use and definitely overnight.

Usually around 6-8 hours. I've never had the battery die on a full days use.

It only lasts a 2 - 2 1/2 hours MAX for me. And I have my computer on the settings to maximize the battery life. Very disappointing.

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
