Battery life of the Dell Inspiron 5000 series (touch)

[jerebrag04]

Can anyone give me an idea about the battery life of the Dell Inspiron 5000 series (5548 ,5558 or 5559) touch screen laptops.
I need to know about the battery life before buying one for myself.
Any other alternatives to the above mentioned laptops in the same price range would be much appreciated.

Here's a review for the Dell Inspiron 5558. The 5559 would likely have less battery life because AMD APUs generally consumes more power than Intel's CPUs.

The Dell laptop lasted 5:37 hours using simulated continuous web surfing using WiFi. When playing back a 1080p movie (set to repeat) the battery lasted 5:15 hours.

The Dell was compared against the Acer Aspire E5-571G which lasted longer in the battery tests, but it does not have a touchscreen.
