on 1920 x 1080 30fps no more than 45 mins, if the battery is brand new, 640x480 maybe one hour and 10 mins, never store the cam full charge this damage the battery ,you can get a extra battery on amazon for $8.99 good luck!

For me, so far, it has been lasting just about 2-3 hours on a full charge. Almost 1 year of usage so I do keep it plugged in when not in use and definitely overnight.

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.

A few hours (I haven't clocked it), I think. I've watched a movie and then a tv show afterward. The cool thing is that you can plug it in to charge while you're using it, so that works great!

It's pretty good... I got up to 2 days use with mine without charging. And when I gave it to my friend in Africa.. He never complained about battery life despite the fact their wasn't steady power supply where he lives.

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.

at least 2 hours. maybe even 3. Its been a year now and I still have 2 hours remaining in my battery and I'm a student. So i've been using my laptop extensibly.

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

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

Up to 4 hrs, but it takes awhile to drain the battery. Everyday use for a week and still running in a single charge.

No actually the battery life is pretty good. When it's fully charged I would use it for about 3-4 hours

I haven't done a test (like running movies for hours to clock the battery life), but I would say about 6-7 hours of use. I use it a lot, but only need to charge the battery every 2 days or so. No battery gets used when it's off, either (I know that sounds silly) - for example, I had charged it fully and the. Had it in my bag for 3 days before taking it out to use it, an the battery was still charged to 100%. So far, great battery life. Hope that helps.

5-8 hours depending on what you are doing and depending on what battery mode you have it in. There is power saver, balance, and high performance options

Jason, I have had mine for a couple of months and the battery lasts 5 - 7 hours depending on what I am doing. This is a great machine and very fast.

Hello Laura,I primarily use it at work and have it on all day (7-8 hours). The battery life seems to be good...generally lasts all week. Hope this info helps :)Marsha

Maybe 2 hours on battery saving mode if your lucky. If battery life is a concern I'd look elsewhere. This computer is mostly a desktop replacement.

i get about 6 hours on basic day to day things, like internet and word document. but i keep the backlit keyboard turned of, the screen brightness on low, and i keep it on powersave mode. on the first day that i got it, i was curious how long it would last if i did absolutely nothing, just letting the computer idle. (screen turned of as well). i got over 9 hours.
