I have my laptop for almost one year now and I’m beginning to be discontented with its battery life. It’s a big hassle when the battery dies out and there’s no socket nearby where I can recharge. I’m sure there are many laptop owners who wish their batteries could last for more than an hour and a half or two. But, I think Hewlett-Packard is about to solve this dilemma. In partnership with Boston Power, HP is set to introduce Sonata, the lithium-ion battery that can last up to three years of recharging without losing its maximum capacity. Apart from that, Sonata only takes 30 minutes to recharge, unlike traditional batteries being used today.

If you want this long-lasting Sonata you have to shift to HP laptops because this battery will be offered under the Enviro brand on selected notebooks next year. Once released, the batteries will come with a three-year warranty according to HP. However, if you are not in the market of buying a new laptop yet you have an option of buying new batteries as replacement, as long as your laptop is HP.

As of now, HP hasn’t quoted a price for Sonata.
