The battery of your Asus laptop is an essential component for optimal mobile use. Discover our tips to extend its lifespan and optimize everyday battery life.
🔋 Understanding battery lifespan
- Lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion) have an average lifespan of 300 to 500 charge cycles.
- After about 300 cycles, a battery retains around 80% of its original performance.
- Unsuitable ambient temperature (too hot or too cold) can reduce battery capacity by up to 70%.
- Battery life also depends on system settings, CPU usage, and the applications you have open.
