Hey guys, so i recently got an acer swfit 5 and i´ve been reading all this forums online about one big question; SHOULD I LEAVE MY LAPTOP PLUGGED IN? , i mean i use it for several hours and i keep plugging and unpluggin when it reaches full charge. what should i really do? as many sites recommend to remove the battery and leave it plugged, but swfit 5 have integrated battery. The thing is, the battery is suposed to last 10 9 hours or somethin, i mean is new, and its not lastin that much, help.

Ps: i´ve also read the keep the battery between 20%-80% percent theory

    I purchased in 7/2017.  My battery last only few minutes . Questions:
    1. Acer battery warranty? And if not,
    2. advice to replace the battery by myself. 
    Is there Acer instructions ?

    TIA

    Increasing the battery capacity, you can try battery calibration. As per i know there is no separate warranty for battery as the warranty comes for complete unit. please check the acer warranty details https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/standard-warranty

    1. Discharge your Laptop fully until it turns itself off.
    2. Turn it on again and let it turn itself off.
    3. Plug your Laptop into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.
    4. Unplug your charger.
    5. Turn your Laptop on. ...
    6. Unplug your laptop and restart it.
