Give some examples how you use it also. Like how many hours it is in sleep mode etc.


My phone has been on for 15 hours now and 9 off them it was in sleep mode. For 6hours I've done regular stuff like upgrading my contact list, checking settings etc. My battery is 50% now.

I plug mine in every night before bed, so I have no clue

I think thats bad for the battery if you never use it so it goes empty.

Lasts just about 2 days ....with about 2-3 hours of talktime...and 5-6 hours of "other" use!

Around 3 days with roughly 1 hour of music usage , and a few minutes - 1 hour of other stuff daily. And after 3 days its not empty. Still holds 20-25% charge.

I am not an extremely heavy telephony user though. In 3 days my average talk time is about 30 minutes.

i get about a day and half (35hrs) and it'll be at 20% or less..

i make sure and only charge fully

i use WIFI, calls, and SMS ALLOT!!!, no edge and no SSH..
i play allot of NES/Music most nights.. i am happy with my battery life for now, the size of the screen, WIFI etc, i expected worse..

...................

i was finding it was only about 2 days with ~30% (so not enough to go a whole day really) and i tried running the battery down till the phone turned off 3 times and it seems to last longer now. i now get 3 days usually without the 20% battery warning now.

so i highly seggest people try "calibrating" the battery like that, it cant really do any harm i dont think.

I get 5 hours of "usage" time on my general control panel. It takes about a day and a half to get to 20% charge where it asks for a recharge.

I have done everything I could to increase battery time, including turning off wifi, ssh, and bluetooth. None of that really made any big difference.

What made a BIG difference, was turning down the brightness of the display.. before that I could not even get thru one 12 hour day without needing to recharge.

I use the camera, calendar, maps, weather, and edge. I dont use Wifi, nor SMS. My talk time is about 30 minutes per day, or 1000 minutes per month.

I DID do the drain completely and recharge overnight to condition the battery.. even though I know that this is not a NiCad Battery and does not need conditioning.

Charging untill it is really full, makes a difference.

ps
I hope others will report their Actual Usage in Hours as displayed in the General control/Usage panel

I think you will find that regardless of whether you get 1-2-or 3 days of On time, your actual Usage will be not much more than 5 hours.. tell me if that is true for you

I get about 2 days, maybe a bit more, for my usage.
