Battery life? Can anyone help?

I have found about 5 -8 hours. If the Wifi is on it is on the lower side....If you just read books already on the Nook Color you can go a couple of days reading a few hours at a time....It goes into a sleep mode and wakes up when you press the Home "N" key. I just charge it up like I do my cell phone! It's one of the greatest ereaders there is!... I love it!

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..

I have been using this unit for a few months now and still get 4 or more hours from battery. Depending upon what I am doing some times more. Hope this helps you.

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.

Watching YouTube videos drops about 1% battery life for about every five minutes on mine. That's all I know (haven't used it much). Leaving it 'on' with WiFi enabled uses about <1 to 1% per day.

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 have actually tested the battery life at maximum use. From fully charged, I had the screen at 100% brightness, and going online, I was watching videos. My battery lasted a little bit more than 4 1/2 hours before it went to 0%.

I am not sure of exactly how long but it seems to be about 2 hours or so. I have actually never timed it. This is an older laptop my kids use for games so that might be why the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Hope this helps! :)

Hello Laura,I primarily use it at work and have it on all day (7-8 hours). The battery life seems to be good...generally lasts all week. Hope this info helps :)Marsha

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.

Sorry, I've never really timed it. I know it is at least 4 hours, and maybe it is more. But the last computer I used had had a bad battery for so many years, that I had almost forgotten I could ever use a computer that was not plugged in. Not that it matters, but I purposely ordered this computer with Windows 7 because I did not want to use Windows 8 on a computer that was not touch screen. I have had the computer for about a month and haven't had any problems so far, unlike the person who wrote the previous comment.

Very good. The longest I've had it uncharged was about over 10hrs talking and it was at 20% by then. But I did buy a refurbished phone with a new battery and I used low light settings to conserve energy. So take that into account as well....

The device inside can get turned around so just keep pressing all over. I think the battery life is only 12 hours.

Try turning off any wifi, Bluetooth, gps etc when they are not in use. You can also set your screen brightness lower than factory settings. Ive had the phone for about 6 months and ive had pretty good luck with it. I usually get a whole day full of using data and texting without having to recharge.

the battery life lasts approx 4-8 hours...sometimes longer if not used continuously.

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