    Hi, I'm considering buying the D505 laptop with celeron m processor.
    I wonder if there is a big differences if buying the 6 cell over the 4 cell battery in the batterylife and weight aspect. Is there a big weight difference?

    I don't know the exact weight of their batteries without looking, but the increase will not be substantial. A 4 cell battery is very small though, I'm not sure how long you need it to last though, so that might or might not work for you.
