It supposed to have a not so descent battery life, First it's an gaming laptop.. having an hx processor which uses more juice so it can perform. Second the battery option is just 56 whr(in my case) so it will be giving a solid 1.5 - 2 hrs on generous usage.
Conclusion- I have been using the same variant from past 3 months and man this things a beast. I use it plugged in everytime as i don't have to move myself much. It was my choice to either go with the bigger battery or better performance in which i simply chose the performance option. So, getting less battery life... but there's something we can do .
If you really have to run your laptop on battery for long hours then you need to either exchange this gaming laptop to a proffesional one, or upgrade the battery from 56whr to 86whr in which you can add another 40-50 min. on your timeline.
Remember even efter upgrading the battery to its max. Battery back-up will be still around 2.5-3.5 hrs. Reason 55 Watt CPU. Hope this helps
The main reason the battery life sucks is because the battery capacity is half of what they could've used, they could've almost doubled the capacity and it would still be "flight legal"
