how is the battery life

Has nothing to do with the video camera. Over the years with 2 of these camcorders of which I bought used, I always bought batteries separate via Amazon, looking for longer battery time. Once you see what is compatible, you just need to find a battery and seller that you can trust. They should provide the battery life details.

So far after I charge the battery it will last about 90 minutes. I have not had any issues with the battery.

I have been happy with it. Instead of about 2 hours of unplugged life, the battery gives 3 hours. The physical size is the same.

Prior to my purchase I read a lot of negative comments about the battery life. Personally, up to this point, I have not been disappointed. I did purchase 2 spare batteries, but so far, I haven't had to use them. I don't shoot for hours at a time, but still, off and on, it's not bad.

The battery life is good. I have watched netfix for 4 hours straight before it needed charging. But the battery is not replaceable.

The screen resolution is great. A full battery usually last me around 8 hours.

The battery life is good for me, lasts a couple of days on one charge. The sound is good too, nothing spectacular but takes care of business for me. Dunno about high volumes though.

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.

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

The battery life is just ok. I find I get between 3 and 4 hours from it. It does charge fairly quickly. Maybe 2 hours from under 10% to get a full recharge. I am not sure about the movies from a USB stick as I tend to watch movies on it from the Google Play store. Touch screen is great.

Battery life is good. I used it to take notes in law school and needed to charge it maybe every four days.

I'm not sure. I keep it plugged in. Sorry I can't be much help regarding the battery life.

Battery life is very good , I use it in the shower everyday , so assuming a total usage of abt an hour everyday for the family, two new batteries last me easily a month if not more, battery life obviously is also governed by signal strength at the location, mine is abt average. So I will rate it quite highly. Brgds JD

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 :)

So far so good with battery. If you take photos or use video it goes down fast but regular use is great. I have been using at gym for music etc and and in the yard for photos, and games.

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.
