Inspiron 15 7570 poor battery life

Hi, I bought an i7 7th gen Dell in the above series w dual drive and GTX1050 Ti 8GB RAM just yesterday and I noticed that the battery life of the laptop is quite subpar. It lasts only 3-4hr max off gaming and movie time. May I know whether this is the default battery life for the laptop or whether there's a fault I need to get fixed? If it is the latter I want to get it fixed asap so please let me know if anyone knows. Some reviews do indeed state that its 4hrs even at min brightness.

Please help urgently, I got the laptop from a reseller and already paranoid about it 

Thankyou!

3-4 hours on a system with hybrid video and an i7 CPU is within the norms.  It's a 3-cell battery - you can't expect day-long runtimes from a system configured as you have it.

I'm on my Dell 7570 : I7 8th gen , Touch display 1080p. My battery max out at 2.3 hours on my daily normal usage. Is this what I'd expect with this configuration ?
