Gaming laptop use

[alistarfire]

Hello,

 

I just bought a Dell Inspiron 7567, my question is: I'm wondering how to use it, is it safe to let it plugged in and use it while the battery is full, or do I have to remove the wire once the battery is fully charged.

 

Thanks.

Not in the long run. You'll need to use the battery every now and then if you want to have it survive for more than 2-3 years.

it won't do any harm leaving it plugged in, but you do have to discharge the battery once every 2-3 weeks. that will make the battery last longer. but if you do that anyway with your normal use, then you don't have to worry.

Tell it to only charge to like 60% to make the battery last longer. You don’t want to leave it plugged in

well you don't need to do that, unless you plan on using your device for more than 4 years. a "gaming laptop" today is very obsolete by then because of their non-upgradeble gpu's. 

 

OP's laptop has a 1050, which will probably not be able to play new AAA titles in 4-5 years.

What if I keep it plugged in while I use it(while it's on) and when i turn it off I unplug?
