How is the battery life in different uses? i.e. gaming vs. web browsing vs. movie watching?

I use it for everything except movie watching (I use a chromecast for that). Battery life is actually pretty good. It does not handle super graphics intense games, but It can run Sims 3 for example on the fastest speed with pretty good ease. More graphics intense games would probably struggle a bit or need to have settings lowered. I have been able to play games for at least two hours (maybe three) without the battery going dead. Web browsing and word processing could last a much greater amount of time.

It will depend of how you are using it, for normal use like internet browsing it last up to 6 hours, but for gaming or video I could experience 4 hours at full brightness. Overall the battery life it's very very good

Depends. High performance depletes the battery in a solid hour and a half while I was playing elder scrolls online. Should be a few hours if you're just browsing the Internet.

I've found the battery life to be above average. I had a Lenovo idea pad and it was shorter than the nexus.Charging is very good.

Battery life is good. Don't use it except web surfing, but don't have to plug it in but every few days. It is a great computer and works very well. Great backlit keyboard and sturdy. A little heavy compared to ultra thin laptops, but for the money you can't beat it. I love mine...

I think the battery life is superior on this Samsung. Heard the ASUS tablet battery was dismal. Hardware options look superior on the Samsung too.

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! ;)

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.

The battery life is good for anything I have been using it for. I am not sure what the difference is between the two sorry wish I could help more.

Works great for gaming. Not sure what you mean by time factor, but the battery life lasts for 7-8 hours on normal use and probably 2 or 3 hours of heavy gaming

Hi. I have owned this laptop for a couple of months now and it is amazing. The average battery life I am getting while running wifi and having the brightness about 3/4 bright, I am getting 5 1/2 hours. With wifi off running regular programs like Word, Excel and Powerpoint, I am getting about 6-6/12 hours. Amazing battery life

I have actually tested the battery life at maximum use. From fully charged, I had the screen at 100% brightness, and going online, I was watching videos. My battery lasted a little bit more than 4 1/2 hours before it went to 0%.

Using programs with high PC usage such as video games the battery can last over an hour. Playing DVDs it will last several hours and light use it could last all day. I received two batteries with my computer.

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.

Depends very much on what you are running. Using WIFI and doing typical work activities such as email, web browsing, word, etc., I have seen over 9 hours. If you're watching a movie streamed via 4GLTE the battery life does suffer. I have not timed it, but 6 hours seems pretty close under those contitions.

if your gaming is going to use the battery quickly if you're browsing it'll last hours
