Comment on How's the battery life after you've had one for a while?

I haven’t noticed a huge difference and I’ve been playing it like crazy on both the dock and handheld. Battery wildly depends on the game and performance settings. It’s my primary gaming device and I love to tinker with it but I haven’t noticed a degradation at all.

Cool, I was a bit concerned about the battery life getting worse over time.
Thanks for that.

I know it’s been almost a month but I somehow stumbled on the battery health on the deck and it says it’s at 84%. I assume that means after years of heavy, almost daily use it’s dropped by 16%. Ifixit has battery replacements for ~$100 USD so if I don’t replace this baby in another couple years it won’t be too bad to replace.
I’m more worried about wearing out the bumpers and triggers. The LB is getting a little worn down and I wouldn’t say unresponsive but some days it rides the struggle bus for sure.
