Q: For how many hours does the battery last on this computer?
A: The battery life is 4-6 hours.
A: It is a dual-core processor but with a twist. It has 2 cpu cores and 3 Radeon R5 gpu cores to make it a 5 core processor.
A: Yes! Ours is used for school, surfing the internet and light video gaming.
A: No. This laptop is made for web-browsing at best. Even then, sometimes it takes a slightly longer time to load up Chrome or other browsers. It feels very poorly built as well. I would not recommend this for anything but web-browsing.
A: To be honest probably not. Its no where near as quick as they claim for its processor speed and all but although I cant say that 100% because mine also doesnt allow any setting changes when you connect a device like a phone or other things and most the time doesnt recognize it and when it arrived all the air cushioning packaging stuff was flat so it could be internal damage from UPS shipping Id like to send mine in soon so as far as I know my answer is no but like I said mines not working to its full potential I believe.
Q: Does this laptop have a removable battery?
A: Yes it dose.
Q: Is the battery removeable or sealed in?
A: This notebook has a non-removable battery.
