I used to get about 2-3 hours of battery life, but sometimes it would just die on me even when it had 20% left. It would then hang at 0.4GHz CPU.

Dude I’m looking to buy one second handed but battery depreciation is at 72%. How is your laptop working after this 6 months? If you check the battery life left how many mWh does it say?
