What kind of battery life have people been getting?

I have been getting about 4 hours but I have never run it all the way down. I also have not changed any of the default setting so you might get more by cutting performance.

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.

About3 to 4 hours. Battery isn't a strong point here. I didn't buy it to use the battery however, so I'm pleased with it. Really a grade A laptop. I'm sure this varies based on task and performance settings.

The phones that I have been using. I leave in the charging cradle all the time, all over the house. I have 6 matching handsets. The handsets have been left out of the cradle over night, or all day, and still have full battery power. I did have one start to go out of service recently. It is the main handset and is used a lot. I don't recall how long it had been out of the charging cradle. Must have been more than a whole day. Have not had an issue with that handset since then. Overall, battery life, I have found with my personal use, has been several hours. You always have the option of switching to a different charged handset.

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've personally had mine for a couple years now. But where I'm at with it, I can get about an hour, give or take, with heavy usage (i.e. watching HD videos online, etc.).

I had the thing on a medium volume on Saturday, and it wasn't even on a full charge and it was still going when i brought the speaker inside 7-8 hours later. I use it all the time and have yet to use it for enough time for the battery to run out. Amazing battery life.

I haven't actually timed it, but I've been able to use it quite a bit without recharging. I use quite a lot on Sundays and for hours at a time on other days of the week. Takes several days before I have to recharge. I have been impressed with the battery life.

sorry for the delay. Battery life is 3 hours or more. I have not pushed it to its limits though. Sorry.

That's a good question!! It's kind of new and I moved to my new mac in a month or so. I didn't had chance to play a lot with it. But to be honest for the time I have used it I have never felt any concerns with battery . In worst case 5-6 hours at least and more depending on the settings you use.

I hadn't really tested battery life, so I fully charged the tablet, then set up the power controls to never turn off the display or PC. Then I set it down and let it run. So far it has been 6 1/2 hours and it's still going. The battery indicator says 11% left for 38 more minutes. I suppose the power consumption might have been somewhat higher if I were streaming something, maybe I'll try that test after this, but it definitely has a good battery life. This test was run with WiFi on but without the bluetooth keyboard.

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 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.

The battery life has been great so far! I've had mine for two months, I never turn it off, and I use my computer for 8-12 hours every day. The batteries haven't needed changed yet.

I haven't timed it exactly either. But I can get through 3-4 movies (balanced settings) and still have half battery life. Hope this helps!

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.

My battery life's pretty good, if I use it a lot it lasts about a day and a half, usually I don't use it that much so I end up charging about once every two and a half days.

Hasn't been a problem for me but the more I read, the more I see owners having 'issues' with power-related matters (not fully charging, etc.). The battery on the unit itself seems to perform well under stated times and (for me) is slow to recharge. Good luck with it.
