    Hello,
    I would like to buy the notebook Latitude D820 9 Cell Primary Battery. And I
    would like to ask you, if the battery doesn't sticks out from the notebook. I noticed that the model D620 has the battery, which sticks out from the
    notebook.
    Is it very important for me!

    Thank you very much for your answer!

    Bye

    Hey ProtoLoto

    The 9-cell battery for the D820 does NOT stick out as it does for the on the D620. The footprint of the laptop is larger due to a large screen, so the battery takes the same room as the smaller cell'e battery.

    Good luck and happy computing ;)

    it does not stick out on the 820

    the 620 comes with three battery options: 4, 6, and 9 cel. only the 9 cel sticks out the front; the 4 and 6 cel do not stick out at all.

    Is the 9 cell battery much heavier than the 6 cell? Does it make a big difference to the overall weight of the laptop?
