I've owned (and sold) an XPS 13 and now have an XPS 15. Battery life is pretty terrible though. I barely get over four hours. I have TLP running and I'm running Gentoo as my distro.
I did buy it refurbished, so I wonder if it might just have a bad battery or if I'm just screwing up some of the power fine tuning.
- bproven 9y agoyou might - my xps 15 9550 (once tweaked with TLP, powertop, non-4K screen) gets 10-12 hours. There was a recall on batteries for the 9550 so this is with my new battery. However, this doesnt discount the other issues I had with the box. BUT, once sorted it runs well now even after several upgrades ( Ubuntu 16.10 thru 17.10)
