• Correct, you cannot exchange batteries. From my experience I have used it and it lasted about 2 hours. Of course you can always buy a portable charger and just charge it on the go, that is what I do.

• I have my settings on 1080p and fully charged it lasts about 2.0-2.5 hours. It can be charged while recording. Also you are correct, you are not able to switch batteries.

• The battery is built in and cannot be switched. The battery life depends on your settings. I have used it at 720/30 for about 96 min.

• It is true you can not switch the battery because it is internal. It does last about 2 hours but there are many different factors like how good of quality and if you are using the wifi. I have an external battery that I keep with it to charge while on the go. It has been just fine for the average Joe.

• The battery does not last long...especially when linked to the app on your phone...maybe 1.5 - 2 hours of life before you need a recharge.
