Any\/\/ays, about ho\/\/ long do3s th3 batt3ry on th3 MSI GE60 2OE-003US r3ally last?

Thanks. I n33d this for coll3g3 so I don't \/\/ant it to b3 2 hours lik3 th3y adv3rtis3.

L3t's say I \/\/as on Microsoft \/\/ord and googl3 chrom3..

 

Lol I love how you have improvised. Anyways, I cant give you personal experience with a GE60 2OE, but I can give you this. I have been in the same boat as you for a while now and I can tell you that its terrible lol. Between Lenovo and there Y500/Y510p and the GE60, its been one big pain in the @ss. I am too a college student (Well soon to be one in August) and I too was worried about battery. But after researching I found that the GE60 with half brightness and on balance mode, people have been reporting only 2-2.5 hours MAX. Thats just terrible for a college student. Also people have been reporting heat issues. So personally if this laptop is going to be your "College Laptop" and you want battery, I would think twice about the GE60.

I know you personally had problems in the past with Lenovo and there Y500. But in full honesty I think you should at least rethink looking at a Y510p again. But again thats just me. I love mine and have zero problems with it. I also get around 3-3.5 hours of just browsing.

 

Th3r3 is lit3rally no \/\/ay in h3ll I am going back \/\/ith L3novo. Ugh. I, onc3 again, hav3 no id3a \/\/hat I should g3t as a laptop.

Thanks for th3 complim3nt bt\/\/ lol.

 

I have the GE60. You can pull out almost 3 hours if you lower the brightness all the way but you won't get more than 2 hours 10 minutes at the standard "web browsing, medium brightness" test. Sorry, the battery capacity is just lower that it should be, and I wish MSI would make a higher capacity battery available, I would buy it. It's a real pity because all the other faults with the computer are pretty minor.

 

what up FSU Logan!

well i guess with gaming laptops, 2-3 hours is all we will get lol. someone suggested me a tablet to do light work - browse internet, email, etc. i got an apple ipad so i guess that would work and maybe that will work for you as well?

 

H3y!


I am looking at Sony Vaio's curr3ntly.. It is stupid of m3 to buy a 'gaming' laptop if I n3v3r gam3..

 

If you don't plan on gaming then you need to look at solutions with integrated graphics only If they carry 8 cell or more battery with new Haswell CPUs, you can get around 5 hours more or less, depending on the rest of your hardware config. I can get 5 hours with my GT60 when not using the dedicated GPU and just browsing or using office apps

 

yeah, you can definitely get something that last longer than 3 hours then!

 

If you do not game, you can check out CX series of MSI NB. Gaming laptop is design to preform for gamer.
