I mean it all depends on your laptop. Ironically the cheaper laptops tend to be better at web browsing for extended periods without being flimsy. The more expensive ones are the ones that push for being slimmer and lighter at the cost of smaller batteries (relative to processing power) and weaker frames. The cheaper ones use low-power CPUs so they use less battery life. I got a laptop for my son for only $150 and it can go 8 hours on a charge and it's sturdy enough to survive being used by a 11-year-old.

(What a time we live in that an 11-year-old has a meaningful need for his own laptop...)
