Battery life

I have recently got a second-hand laptop

its only just over a year old and its a Dell Latitiude D6000

I’ve just unplugged it from charge and says its got 1hr 50mins left??

I’ve never had a laptop before so I dont know what normal but im guessing that it should last longer than 2 hours right?

how long should it last?

thanks x

Answer #1

My dell would last about 3 hours when I first got it, and over time the battery started sucking and would only last 30 min when fully charged. I just bought a replacement battery.

My ASUS lasts about 4 hours on battery if I dim the screen to conserve power :)

Answer #2

I have a Sony VAIO and Mine on lasts and hour. And this was a brand new laptop. And I have heard if your have you laptop alway conntected to the charger that causes it to not last as long.

Hope this helps!

Answer #3

I’m not an expert, but part of my job involves selling laptops so I know a bit about battery life. Different laptops have different battery lifes. Normally you’re looking anywhere between 1 and 7 hours. I have a Dell laptop and the battery life is around two-hours or so.

It also depends on what you’re doing. If you have several programs running, making the computer work a lot then it’s going to wear down the battery faster.
