I use HTC one x. My battery backup is relative to how I use it. from moderate to heavy usage, it could be from morning till around 7pm. but when I go geeky and phone crazy. I doubt it passes the 6hr markundecided

Galaxy Note.

HSDPA ONLY. everything online and syncing at intervals.

near constant surfing at free moments grin grin

when the network signal at my location is good, it lasts 7hrs, if its bad, about 3 1/2 (that is mos def annoying, sick horrible naija networks)

movies, like 6 hrs straight, left with 20% (on a bus journey)

if i turn off data, lasts more than 30 hrs!!


crappy battery but then compared with my Xperia, its waaay better. that xperia would do just 3 and half hours browsing!!

It really depends on the device and the activities going on on the phone.

A typical BB battery will last 3 hours with constant pinging and internet usage.

Well, a Nokia will last longer than that. But if u are running multiple apps, talk, sms, chat and all, it shouldn't last more than a day.

U are right. It drains faster when the network is unstable.

@oubi:
Your battery evaporates like gas cos you use 3G network. Step your network down to 2G on your phone and your battery would last longer.
Re: How Long Does Your Smartphone's Battery Last? by bluelaptop: 1:06pm On Nov 07, 2012
WELL YOUR BA3 DURATION DEPENDS ON HOW OFTEN YOU USE YOUR PHONE *how many apps running on background. If connected to net or not . Playin music* . Also make sure you buy original battery when making replacements . A average battery last for 12 hours on moderate usage .as 3, 3.5, 4g consumes more power than 2g . For me my htc last days cos i use my ipad for most of my net surfing .

That's quite strange cos 3g surfing and multi tasking on s60v3 phones like e71 makes it hot, hence drains battery faster.

Only when I am sharing my wifi through Joiku that I experience the hotness and battery drain , my fone is on 3g 24 and on airtel which is relatively stable
