I recently bought an “Asus TUF Gamming F15 FX506HF” laptop and when was doing the research before I bought it, from the info I gathered I expected at least 4 hours according to what I regularly do.

however, what I actually get (on battery safer mode) is max 1.5h-2h, just watching YouTube on Chrome

NOTE: I am sure I do not have any heavy background processes or something as the OS is still completely fresh and I also removed all the bloatware and unneeded garbage.

​

So, is this normal and is what I should’ve expected or there is something wrong and I must return it while I still can?

    Open armory crate and set gpu to eco mode and power option to minimum. With gpu running im looking at same numbers as you are seeing. Used same laptop for studying and got around 6-8h of browsing time on battery.
