HP Pavilion dv3-2050ea - 13.3in Laptop - Battery Performance

While the application performance is slightly less, no such compromise can be seen in the battery results, where the dv3-2050ea breaks the four hour barrier.

Its impressive showing continues in the Reader test, showing the HP's have a small but not insignificant advantage over the Samsung.

No change in the DVD test and were one to reduce the screen brightness, three and half hours of DVD playback would be attainable.
