Heard that DELL 9-CELL BATTERY LIFE has a better battery life- span as compared to the standard 6-cell battery life.. Any comment?

Recommended for mobility.

me also regret not getting the 9-cell battery.... buying it separately is kind of expensive.

The good : extend battery life by 40-65% ...... depending on models

The bad : generally battery protrudes out which is unsightly
adds 200-300gms extra weight

Yes, that's correct. The more cells, the more charge it can hold.
