The battery life is about what you would expect from any other laptop. That is unless you purchase and extended life battery.

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.

I bought the mouse back in November and haven't changed the battery yet. I use it probably an average of 3-4 hours a day.

After a full charge, the battery lasts about 3-4 hours. Yes, you can read books (with appropriate Apps) and you can surf the internet just like a regular computer.

I haven't been unhappy with the battery life. Perhaps normal usage depends on the person. I play games, watch a couple movies, once in a while check things out online. I charge mine up about once a week just to keep it ready, but I do not use it every day. For the wi-fi, I have to be home, so I download games or movies to watch when away.

I've mostly used it on USB, but from time to time it comes unplugged and I dont notice til days later that it's still running. I've never attempted to use it for 80 continuous hours, but I'd say it lives atleast 60 before it needs a charge.

Of course, it depends on whether you're active on the web or just working on local documents, spreadsheets, presentations, etc. But I'd say just under 3 hours when fairly actively web surfing.

It lasts forever, if that's what you are asking! Plus, mine came with an extra battery that I keep charged just in case. But I do extensive emailing on it and I can wrote two LOOONG emails before it even drops below 20%...like 6 hours of constant use at the very least. And I use a Swype keyboard which seems to use more power than the simple android keyboard.

~4 hours of moderate use. Probably closer to 6 if one were just typing with other apps closed and wifi and bluetooth turned off.

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.

The battery will last for about two to three hours when reading a down loaded book (kindle) or about an hour and a half for a down loaded game. I believed it lasted a little longer when I first got it about 1 year ago. This is with the Wi-Fi off. You can use it with it plugged in to a 120 v circuit.

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)

Not terrible, but not amazing either. 2 days of standby, which is important to me in my work in IT I need a laptop ready on a whim and I might not be able to plug it in. But heavy Wi-Fi internet surfing you might get 2-3 hours.

I bought one of these here in March, and although I try to keep it plugged to mantain the battery between 40% and 80%, I have used it for 6+ hours for web browsing, some YouTubbing, some Google SketchUp and watching a 80 minute movie (there was a severe blackout that time), from less than full charge down to about 15%.
