    If using the normal 6 cell battery, and a 6 cell smart battery, how long will it go (under proformance settings not powersaver settings), without having to plug in again?

    Yeah, that's fairly accurate. I get 3 hours with pretty much high settings all around.

    I was lucky to get over 3.5 and vista reminded me you have just 10% left better plug it in

    Is there any other laptop that can even compare to the m15x's with a smart bay battery? It's just so powerful in terms of battery life, especially when you turn down some settings and run on the integrated card.
