15+ laptop with good battery life

[Pauliusk]

Hello,

i am searching for a laptop with these conditions:
15 or 17 inches screen, 1080p or better.
minimum 5hours work time (surfing with wlan).
lightness is preferable, but not a must.

so far only new dell XPS 15 might complete the requirements, but its bloody expensive and i have the previous one, in which im very disappointed. any other options?

Yes... a lot of options
Unfortunately you left out a lot of other specs, like what you want to do with your device, pricing max and so on.
Please read the sticky, even though it is german. Otherwise we won't be able to help.

other specs are not that important, i just want superb screen with good batterylife and 15+inches. i will use it for bussiness, so integrated graphics are OK, but i dont want to pay a lot of money if that is the case. i can pay up to 1200 EUR. i have SSD, which i will move to the new laptop. Haswell is a plus. lightweight is a plus.

Just found out in the search you can put minimum battery minutes, searching for options.

so far it looks the best, but its at the top of my budget. Anything similar for a lower price?

you can´t change the Harddrive on this Notebook
because ists very difficult to open

any negatives? it should do a good job for much lower price.

its a good notebook,
you only need a msata SSD and put in in the Notebook by yourself
wich shoudn´t make any problems

[SCARed]

though you can use your normal SATA SSD, too. in this case you just have to exchange the HDD it has already with your SSD.

but the IMHO best solution is keeping the HDD (as an archive and alike) and adding a mSATA SSD. the best of both wirlds ...  ;)

bought V5-573g, i7 version. build quality is not excelent, but it doesnt feel cheap when using it. other than that, i am very happy with a purchase, screen is superb, battery life is good, i put msata SSD, so for me it has no flaws apart audio, which is without bass, but i use headphones anyway.
