Battery life is ok. We have had to warranty ours 2 times as the charging USB port is very cheaply made. For that reason alone I would avoid getting a slate.

I can't say that I've check on the battery life. It seems to last pretty long. I will check this week and try to repost.

About 2 hours with activity, stand by is several hours. But after a few weeks of use, battery life goes under 1 hour. I plugged it in for 3 hours, and only 1/3 of it was charged. Really awful battery life.

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.

I really haven't tested the battery life per say.....but I have had it on for more than two hours with the battery still holding charge. Hope this helps.

It only lasts a 2 - 2 1/2 hours MAX for me. And I have my computer on the settings to maximize the battery life. Very disappointing.

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.

It depends on your performance settings and what you're doing on the laptop. I use mine with high performance and generally use light programs (MS Office) and web browsing and it generally lasts about 2-4 hours depending. The life of the battery can extend quite beyond that I believe by turning off features and downgrading performance, but I have not really explored those features fully.

It´s no more than 4.5 hrs. I looked at the customers reviews before I buy it so I knew the battery life had not the best average. But I´m still very happy with my purchase, its a great laptop.

I've only had it for 5 weeks, so I don't know the battery life yet. It is working quite well.

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.

battery life is good (Haven't done an exact measurement, but it seems like I recharge about every 3 or 4 days). It has an automatic sleep function that preserves the battery life. Full charge in about 2 hours.

Battery life is pretty good... A whole day if your actually using it.. I've left it sitting and it's lasted around 3 weeks without usage on one charge.

A very long time. I would say somewhere around 30 hours. The battery lasts forever though.

Battery life is disappointing. I just got this, and it lasts somewhere around 13-15 minutes on a full charge.

The most I have had battery life is a little over 2 hrs. If you charge it and don't use it right away it will die. But honestly for the money its a good price. Hope this helps.

Usually the battery last between 4 to 6 hours. Just make sure you don't drain the battery. When you see that the battery is almost gone, charge it to prolong the battery life.
