what is the battery life on this pc

3-4 hours-ish, if you leave all the background stuff running. Less if you leave all the background stuff running and are using the blu-ray. But since I'm almost never anywhere with it that doesn't have an outlet--including trains, train stations, airports, etc., battery life isn't too much of an issue usually. Just turn off applications you don't actually need to be running if on a long flight or train ride to preserve battery life.

Don´t know yet, because I have sent my laptop from the united states. I live in Venezuela. But I have a satellite A65 after three years, the battery lasts for 2 hours.

Honestly, not great. But keep in mind that its a core i3. Its got a two cell battery and gives about 3 to 4 hours of life which is more than my old acer netbook running a single core atom ever gave with a 3 cell battery.

Remarkably good, but I haven't measured it. On all day yesterday, actually using it probably a total of 3-4 hours with sleep mode between uses, and still good life in it. Only time it died was at the end of that day I started a download of Windows 8.1 and forgot to plug it in--died about 75% of the way thru after a couple more hours.

The battery doesn't last as long as the specs say it will, but then again, that is the case with all computers. I use quite a bit of CPU throughout the day, so without charging I would say it lasts 4 to 5 hours. Given the amount of CPU I'm using, I'm very please with that. If you are just using Microsoft Word and maybe 2 tabs of whatever browser, I would imagine the battery lasts much longer than 4-5 hours.

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.

This is a hybrid drive system SDD+Mechanical 500GB, Battery life is about 4-4.5hrs max real time. If u r watching movies and play games, 2-2.5hrs only. Run it for 4 months already. Hope this information helps...

I have not really taken note but it could be anywhere from 3-5 hrs. Besides it conserves energy if you're not using it it first goes into the sleep mode & later turns itself off. It's such a nice tablet PC that I've bought a total of 7 for sale/gift.I also buy fix & sell PCS.

On "Battery Saver" power settings with brightness of the screen turned down, for web browsing and word processing my battery runs to around 10% at about 6 hours or so. In the description on Amazon it advertises 6.5 hours of battery life. I'd say that is about correct.

Its a good 3.5 to 4 hrs but leave mine charging with AC power most of time. I would recommend upgrading the memory to max amount for performance.

Depends on the battery. I use Energizers and I've gotten over 16 hours of gameplay on TF2 and Orcs Must Die 2.

Is around 8 hours of usage with the display at 40% ... but in stand by the power consumption is very low. I can tell you... I put one SSD samsung pro 840 and 8 gb of RAM crucial... the performance improved significanly I can run Adobe Photoshop CS5.... SPSS... everything goes much more smootly.

There is 8GB of RAM. The computer is solid it's just sometimes the scroll (two-finger scroll) on the mouse pad goes out randomly. And the battery life is not exceptional. Other than that its perfectly fine.

I guess that would depend on the processor you used, the graphics card you used, the harddrive you used and the memory and how much you had. I've never measured the power, so sorry, I can't help.
