[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 935013, member: 97843"] Haven't you ever used a laptop/notebook before? Battery life depends on what you run while using it. Having a "7 hour" battery doesn't mean you will have a battery that lasts 7 hours every single time. It means, if you are aware of what you need to do on your computer to get the most out of your battery, you can very well achieve 7 hours of battery life. Also, keep in mind that 7 hours is not the maximum life of these batteries. You can get more than 8 hours out of them if you wanted...you just have to NEED the 8 hours for you to run that long...for most people though, they don't care much about how long, to the minute, their battery lasts...as long as it lasts a good amount of time, and they can get what they need done on it.
