Xps 15 9560 battery
Hi, l want to buy a new dell xps 15 9560. I prefer the configuration with the 56 whr battery. But I'm not sure for the battery duration. How long does the battery last? Thanks

There are too many variables to predict accurately. All else equal, you'll get only about 58% of the runtime from a 56 WHr battery as you would from the 97 WHr unit. If you are purchasing the system to use a 2.5" additional drive (hard drive or SSD), that will further reduce the runtime of the battery.
Don't even think of trying to order a QHD system with the smaller capacity battery - the high resolution display will drastically shorten the runtime of either battery -- particularly for the lower capacity one.
