What typical battery life do you usually get?

I don't typically use it for more than 3 hours or so at a time but it seems to hold a charge when not in use pretty well so I would say 6 hours or more would be fair.

I usually get about 3-4 hours...however I will say the reception in this is not good. I put my phone in my workout bag and I set it usually one to two feet away from the machine I'm on and my reception is terrible. I absolutely don't recommend this product unless you are going to be using it with your phone/device in your pocket (which defeats the purpose of bluetooth)

I get about 6-10 hours depending on how I am using it. If you use it for longer periods for listening to music its closer to 6. But if you are using it more as a way to answer the phone, then its up into the 10 and beyond. I love mine. If the battery life was longer it would be perfect.

For me if I'm using it like normal (Facebook, Instagram ect.) It gives me an extra four to five hours of battery life. But even more if just set it and let it charge.

I would say there is no set answer to this question, the actual battery life that you experience will depend on your usage and maintainence of the device. My battery usually lasts about 8 days at about 2 hours or so a day, so about 16 hours roughly. YMMV!

The battery lasted about as long as most. I bought a back up, so I never worried.

Depending on how much you use flash, delve frequently into menus, etc., you can usually expect pretty decent battery life. I've gone a whole day shooting over 200 exposures without depleting the battery entirely.

I get about 4.5hrs with the high performance setting. I'm not a big fan of power saving mode. Haha

The average life of the battery is average 5 hours. If I'm watching videos it drains faster.

i get about 6 hours on basic day to day things, like internet and word document. but i keep the backlit keyboard turned of, the screen brightness on low, and i keep it on powersave mode. on the first day that i got it, i was curious how long it would last if i did absolutely nothing, just letting the computer idle. (screen turned of as well). i got over 9 hours.

Can't tell you in hours or days, but battery life is really good. We have multiple users so hard to judge.

Depends very much on what you are running. Using WIFI and doing typical work activities such as email, web browsing, word, etc., I have seen over 9 hours. If you're watching a movie streamed via 4GLTE the battery life does suffer. I have not timed it, but 6 hours seems pretty close under those contitions.

I did not use the Lenovo as a portable device that often. My answer on battery life is that it is AVERAGE. Lenovo maintains "up to 5 hours" (Lithium, 4-cell, 32Wh) in their official specs, but I would mark that down to 4-4.5 hrs. (the battery is only 4-cell). I sold this unit only because the keys were too stiff for my MS riddled hands and switched to a noisy HP ENVY with soft keys. All in all, (for the rest of you) it is a GREAT machine!!! Thanks for your inquiry.

Never had any problem with the amount of battery life. My wife and her sister will attest to that.

I've had mine for almost two years and have changed the battery once. Over a year on the current battery. About 7 hours a day average browsing use.

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.

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

I usually get about 2 hours or less of intensive gaming out of it (Crysis 3 or heavily modded Skyrim on ultra settings, for example). With just web browsing or simple applications I get about 5 hours of continuous use. I can run one charge an entire day as a student by simply making it sleep when I'm not using it. The wake up time is only a couple seconds, but it only takes 5 seconds to boot up anyway so I usually just shut it down if I won't use it for a couple hours.
