What is battery life?

Depends on your round of golf. If you play a round in about 3 or so hours you will get about 27 holes out of it. If you are on a Weekend 5 hour round probably one. I don;t play weekends. Golf time uses 100 times the amount of watch time. I haven't run out of charge on watch only yet.

Battery life is the amount of "charge - time" your watch will give you in performing the various tasks the watch can do. Playing a round of golf uses a considerable amount more "charge" and thus takes away from battery life than does using the watch as an everyday watch. I seem to use about 30% charge for 9 holes. It does not bother me as I charge my watch after each use!

Probably 27 holes. There is normally about 25% left after 18. However, I only use the GPS function which works great.

If you're not playing videos battery life can be up to six or seven hours, at high energy out put the battery life falls to three or four hours.

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

I guess it depends on what you classify as "extreme" use. If you have wifi on, GPS on, are concurrently downloading videos while surfing the web, I'd say 9 hours is probably about right. Try it with the OEM battery and see what your battery life is with the same conditions. My guess it is 4 or 5 hours.

What is regular use? With the original battery I could work about 8 hours, with this one about 20. Reducing screen brightness can give you another 30% more battery life.

The battery life is as described. So far, I have not had to recharge it and I have used it for over a week straight for at least 1-2 hours a day.

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

I've had it for about two years now, and the battery life on it is about two hours, give or take. It's definitely better than the one I replaced, though. I'm still a little disappointed that I have to practically keep my laptop plugged in just to be able to use it for longer periods. Hope this helps!

mauri88, I don't use this computer so I can't give you an exact statement on battery life. However, I bought my daughter this 14" screen HP Envy with 8 gigs of ram. Upon receiving it I immediately removed the factory hard drive and installed a Toshiba 512 Gig SSD. My daughter uses her HP Envy for hours on the battery. I have never heard her complain about her Envy battery's charge running out. She really likes her 14" screen HP Envy.

I am not sure quite how long. I have left it off the charger for 3 days and used it quite abit and still had plenty of battery life left.

Battery - guess it depends on how much you use it. Sorry I can't be more specific

With a Linux OS installed, the average battery life is approximately 3 hours if I just surf the web.

I do not know away to check battery life , 5-6 hrs of steady playing with full charge has been the average .

All I can say is that the battery life exceeds 1 hour of run time and without slowing down. I've never run it it beyond 1 hour nor has it gone dead. I'm very happy with it. Recharge time seem quick enough but I've not timed it.

You can't ask such a basic question like "how long does the battery last"... there are so many factors.How fast your CPU is set to run. LCD on time. HDD spindown time. WIFI being used...The best way is to CHECK the battery with "BATTERYINFOVIEW" from google.Once you get the "designed capacity" from the program, you can calculate the TRUE capacity in MAH which will give you a more accurate representation of how long the battery will last compared to a stock battery.

I get less than 2 hours of use on a full charge (mainly using for internet browsing, email, and playing mp3). The battery also drains when it's not on. I have the 16 GB linux version with advanced desktop enabled. This seems to be common. I think most manufacturers exaggerate battery life a lot, if it's not a flat-out lie. So 2 hours or less of use unplugged with this device is probably the norm, if the manufacturer is saying 3 to 4 hours. My experience with most rechargeable mobile devices is that normal real world use will not get anywhere near what manufacturers state for battery life.
