Laptop batteries usually last 3 to 5 years, depending on usage habits, charging cycles, and overall care. If your battery lasted 5 years before swelling, that’s actually pretty decent, though swelling is always a sign it’s time for immediate replacement.

Common reasons batteries degrade​

? Charge cycles – Most lithium-ion batteries last 300-500 full charge cycles before their capacity drops significantly.
⚡ Heat exposure – Overheating shortens battery lifespan, so proper ventilation is key.
? Keeping it plugged in constantly – Batteries naturally degrade faster when kept at 100% charge all the time.
? Deep discharges – Running the battery down to 0% frequently puts extra strain on the cells.
