    Hi guys, l want to buy a new dell xps 15 9560. I prefer the configuration with the 56 whr battery. But I'm not sure for the battery duration. How long does the battery last? Thanks

    Impossible to answer as no one uses a laptop the same.

    The UHD panel will hit the battery run time compared to the FHD option (see here, for example). With FHD display, low brightness and undemanding workload you might get five hours, possibly six out of the 56Whr battery but less if you start to give the CPU or GPU some work.
