How good is the battery life? Will it play minecraft on medium?

I don't play minecraft but I do play other games and it does about 6 hours on Eco mode. I play almost everyday.

Battery life is about four hours standard. If you run it in eco mode, you can get it to last up to six hours. Eco mode makes everything very slow, though. I would think it could probably run Minecraft.

The battery life is about 2-3 hours for me with wi-fi on. I have played Minecraft on this and it gives a decent fps with little lag.

As a student who uses this laptop as a gaming/school laptop, I highly suggest this laptop. The battery for me has been great. The battery lasts around 4-5 hours for me while actively using it.

I'm using mine right now, and I will be replacing it soon with a desktop. It is fine with minor games such as classic fallout and (sometimes) minecraft. When I first got it, it ran fallout 3 just fine with medium video settings, and now (after owning it for a few years), it can struggle doing basic functions. If you plan on playing demanding games such as GTA or some other huge retail game, DO NOT get this laptop. If you plan on just playing simple games and you don't intend to be "hardcore gaming," then go ahead. I am not disappointed with this laptop, it just doesn't meet my standards for gaming.

The battery life is very good. I was surprised that I can sit at my kitchen table for 3 hours and the battery goes down to about 65%. Now that is very good for this laptop. I think you will enjoy the power that this puts out. Have a great time with it.

ONe of the reviews was from a Mom who said she purchased it for her teenager who had been using it for Minecraft and gave it two thumbs up. Looks like it will. That's what I'm looking for as well.

I have used this computer for years for writing only. I bought it for its tiny size and for the touch screen on which I can write using a stylus. I have never used if for anything graphics intensive and I didn't upgrade its memory or its storage. To play Roblox and Minecraft I would be afraid it would run out of memory. It is upgradable to higher memory so you would need to really look into the amount of memory/storage needed for those before buying this tiny computer. I love it, but remember, I do nothing that is video, memory, or storage intensive.

It's pretty good if playing on it. If downloading apps not so good it drains the battery.

Well, unfortunately I'm not an avid gamer so I am not on it that often, but I have found that if you have it in sleep mode it does a very good job of retaining power. If I were to estimate, if you played it as much as the average owner, I would say you could get a guaranteed couple days out of it...I might even venture and say three days. Again thats just a guess. You might wanna poke around online and google some sites that will give you some good insight on the battery life. Hope I was able to help at least a little. Have fun and keep gaming! ;)

Most likely. Check to see how much RAM is required for minecraft and wether or not this laptop meets those requirements.

I would say no. The Tablet does what I need it to (play videos on a merchandise table and make payments with credit card reader) but other than that, apps run slow, if more than two apps run at a time then the tablet lags and freezes. Also only gives you 2gb of available storage space for apps which fills up very quick. I very much doubt it could run minecraft without blowing up lol.

Based on it's specs, it should be able to run Minecraft. Functional mods shouldn't present a problem, but don't expect to be able to use the mods that add shaders and make Minecraft look incredible. Even my laptop with a dedicated graphics card has trouble with those.

I honestly do not know. I've not attempted to play any video games on the system. It's a fairly decent machine, so I would suspect it would play it fine. Minecraft graphics don't seem that demanding, but I'm no expert.

I haven't had mine long so I haven't worn the battery down, but in-the-box new my laptop has been lasting about 4 hours while playing Steam games, so it's pretty decent.

It's really good and runs well with COD and Minecraft. Definitely what I was looking for. I would rate it 4.5 in gaming catagory

My boys say that you will have no problem playing minecraft on the PC. Good luck! :)
