About to buy a GE73 Raider RGB 8RF, BUT theres a problem!

So the last week i was looking for a good gaming laptop at a fair price and I thought hey why not choose this laptop i liked it, however!

however, the problem is that I read in websites and reviews that one of the main issues with it is battery life, it seems to be below average according to the websites & reviews.

I hear it only lasts about an hour and half when browsing internet / watching movies / studying / productivity etc

I really like this laptop but I don't want to regret battery life :S! So any users of this laptop give me advice please

 

I don't know what kind of weird reviews you're looking at but the batterylife on normal surfing is around 3hours and 30ish minutes. When doing undervolt with throttlestop etc. you might get up until around 4 hours. Don't worry, it's a really solid and good notebook it will blow your mind.

so guys I should stop thinking of alternative laptop? The battery of this laptop is good in relation to other gaming laptops? (The thing is this is the only gaming laptop that is 8th gen and less than 2.7k USD in my country)

 

it's average. You cant have gaming and good performance at the same time. Pick either.

 

I would not even consider battery life to be fair... but yeah compared to other gaming laptops it should be average. It has the optimus which uses the intel gpu for daily tasks, so as long as you stick to low brightness and eco mode you will be good for office work/browsing for a few hours.
Once you launch a game in high performance mode, you will be welcomed by a battery message in about 30 mins and you won't even get the same performance as when plugged in. That should be the case on most of these laptops.
From notebookcheck tests the gigabyte seems to have best battery life if that is a very important factor. Not sure how their tests compare to real life usage though. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Gigab...html#toc-energy-management-great-battery-life
