“What is the battery life when placed in low power mode, not gaming but, say, using a word processor program or browsing? My son will use this for school and it will not be cool to plug it up each class, assuming an electrical outlet is nearby.”

The battery on the laptop is a 4 cell lithium ion, nothing special. On average it will last about 3 hours completely off charge. There are settings and built in ASUS programs to help mitigate and could possibly extend to 4 hours, depending on use. You may also be able to upgrade the battery at an additional cost down the road. Quite frankly, this is a fantastic laptop and I have had zero issues since purchase, however its built more to be a "gaming" laptop that is going to be stationary for the better length of its life. It is heavy and bulky with a really simple battery.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.So far about 7-9 hours. It holds the charge for most of the day.
