Overall the battery life is good. For a heavy user like me it lasts for 2.5 to 3.5hrs. its good. the only drawback is it has a inbuilt battery. which means its not user replaceable.

2.5 hrs to 3.5hrs depends on different tasks, playing vedio cost more power, reading pdfs cost less power

The battery life really depends on your screens brightness and what your doing on the internet. Watching videos or downloading things will drain the battery more then just posting on facebook or doing research. As for the keyboard, no it doesn't have a backlight which, to me, is the only thing I see wrong with it besides the touch pad. Not sure if its just mine but my touch pad doesn't work properly. Other then that, its a great laptop, im completely satisfied with it.

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.

Battery is fine, depends on your activity (Mail, internet or... Final Cut Pro). For me (mail & internet) is about 4h.For the rest no problems at all.

I like to use the brightness at full and with the Wi-Fi on, if I browse, email, etc, I think it lasts me around 3-4 hours. The battery life isn't too impressive on this laptop..

I've had it for about a month now and it still runs good as new. Battery life lasts about a week if used constantly.

I am not sure of exactly how long but it seems to be about 2 hours or so. I have actually never timed it. This is an older laptop my kids use for games so that might be why the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Hope this helps! :)

Mine lasts about 7~8 hours for regular use when I use the Quite Office Setting.I know it's still better than any other laptops as to battery life.

Saul,The battery lasts quite a long time depending on settings and how you have it set up. I have mine set up for High performance when plugged in, but when I put it on battery it goes into a light power mode which lasts for about 4 hours being that I am usually running several windows of word, excel, and multiple Java programming windows. If you are looking to get a gaming laptop with a high performance battery I would have to say this would be one of the top choices for a 17" laptop.

The battery is not easily replaceable -- you need to remove the back cover to access it. That isn't too difficult, because the laptop uses standard torx T5 screws. Still, its not simple.However, I've found the battery lasts nearly 6 hours unplugged for typical web browsing, which is good. Also, I've had the computer ~4 months and the battery life hasn't gotten any worse.

Between 2 to 2.5 hours of full-on use of the laptop...better than the HP battery by at least a half-hour.

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

Its 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 Im still very happy with my purchase, its a great laptop.
