Battery Life: Is there a way to do this?

Some Sony cameras have the battery time left in minutes, which is extremely helpful. For the Canon, we have just had to carry an extra battery around at all times. We seem to get 100+ shots before having to change batteries, and have never run down two batteries within a day, so it works out ok.

I can't give you any idea about battery life because I use this computer at my home desk, plugged in most of the time. But I can tell you I've been very happy with this purchase.

There are many tips about this. You can turn off Bluetooth and Wifi while don't use it. Also config lock screen time in 5 sec and install from Google Play the GO Power Master app to manage other setting that help you to extend battery life

You can if you want to. There is an 'on/off' toggle switch at the bottom. Even if you don't it does not drain the battery too much.

You can't, because the rechargeable battery is built into the unit and isn't designed to be removed by the consumer. I find the battery lasts around 3-4 hours on a full charge.

Yes, it saves the battery to do so. I believe it is done within location settings.

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.

Yes you can. Also a friend and myself tested the battery life. At a low to medium level it lasted 16-18 hours from a full charge.

I doubt it. One the best ways to increase battery life is to reduce the intensity of the display. The Kira does have a power management option, but I've never tested its ability to extend the battery life.

I've never timed it, but it seems to be only a couple of hours to go from dead to full charge. Keep in mind this device can be used while charging which will likely slow the charge down.

Thanks very much for your response. I'm only getting about an hour or less of battery life. I'm very disappointed. Thanks again.

Yes this is an option in one of the menus. This can be turned on and off. If you use the GPS it does use the battery a little more then if you don't use it.

Depending on the amount of apps you have running at one time in the back ground and you amount of usage. In my experience between 15-20 hrs. And I'm a fairly heavy user.

Your current usage will determine how long the battery will last.If your running it to full capacity,then it mightn't last too long.

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.

go to power off screen and change to 5 minutes that is the longest it can stay on

There is no mode of such that i know of. I've been using mine for 2 years and have no problem with battery. At least not yet.
