    Hi. I got my Acer 3201xci about a year ago and I remember talk of there eventually being an 8 cell longer life battery for it in the USA. Has this one come out yet in the US?

    thanks!

    The 4 Cell battery is the reason I have not purchased an Acer. They do offer the 8 Cell battery in medium to high end laptops. Any laptop over $1,000 has the 8 cell battery.

    The battery that came with mine was 6 cell.
    It's rated at 4 hours but really I get about 2.5 to 3 out of it
    using low power settings.
