Had a HP laptop for last few years but not happy especially with battery performance.
Main use for laptop is to essentially browse and watch videos and stream on netflix etc.
Need a 17 inch screen and preferably one with an ethernet port.
Any suggestions and also where to buy from.
Budget £500

The batteries do wear out with age, normally it isn't too difficult to replace them.

The main exception is the "net-book" and similar devices where the battery is just another component soldered in as part of the motherboard.
