new hp victus battery drain too fast at normal usage

[arunan17]

I purchased my HP laptop two days ago, but I'm experiencing battery drain issues. With normal usage, the battery lasts around 2 hours and 30 minutes. Specifically, I've noticed that watching YouTube videos for 1 hour and 30 minutes, and updating drivers for 30 minutes, reduces the battery life to around 30 minutes during normal usage. What can I do to resolve this issue? Should I visit a service center to check for any hardware issues or are there any software solutions that I can try?

Try optimizing your laptop's battery settings, lower the brightness, and close background apps. If the issue persists, check for firmware or driver updates. If it doesn’t improve, visiting a service center for a hardware check is recommended.
