5 1/2 hours of battery life for a notebook for university?

Is this battery life sufficient or would a longer battery life be significantly better?

Dr

I find it sufficient. With 5 hours you can probably do almost a day and the universities still have sockets everywhere.

Thanks for the answer. I also think so, because I will hardly let the notebook run for the whole 5 1/2 hours.

Dr

Just it.

In itself, that is sufficient, since there are sockets in every lecture hall, especially in a modern university. Even in the Audimax there's a socket in the table every 3-4 seats.

Depending on the lecture schedule, however, it may well happen that your notebook gets too long. Last semester we had 5 Vl on Mondays, which leads to an effective running time of 7.5 hours.

5 hours are enough for a little daddling on the Internet, and certainly not for professional use. And they will come.

At UNI you won't have much fun with a cheap ballroom from the discounter. You need a sensible tool.

Co

Specified or effective?

5.5h as the manufacturer's specification probably means 3h actual performance.

Would go on 8-12h.

Is a Lenovo Thinkpad L15. Specify a running time of 12 hours. However, this is effectively only 5 1/2.

That is a good runtime and usually sufficient for a day at the university. If necessary, you could partially charge the notebook during your lunch break.

Effective 5 1/2 hours, indicated is 12 hours.
