>Most laptop battery stop holding a charge 2 to 3 years in.

Counterpoint. I have a lenovo thinkpad t480s that I bought second hand and is now 4+ years old. The battery lasts at least 6 hours. I haven't discharged it fully in a while to be more precise. Ubu 22.04 running in power save mode as selected from the default gnome menu.

Dell? Yeah, terrible company making terrible laptops for sure. Used to think differently before owning one.
