    its 2.5hours

    i dont know how that laptop compares to the one im using right now (walmart toshiba) but this one is rated at 3hours and i managed to get 3.5hours out of it by having it in powersave mode with wireless going and downloading some stuff

    12cell weighs about 0.6lb more and its rated at 5hours of life
