37% Battery Use from Display

[Alvas]

Is this a nromal amount of battery use for display? I am on a Razr, using Zedge to find backgrounds, and right now I have the Gears of War 3 background set, but I have also used the True Blood logo and FFDP. I know that more color = more power because of the s-amoled screen, but 37%? It's the highest user after 2 hrs and 20% of battery use! I have brightness set to powersaver (slightly dimmer) and auto (based on ambient light), so...

Yes. On a daily basis, my display usually eats 30-50% of power used.

For big screens, that's normal.

My Galaxy S under heavy usage has over 60% battery usage from the display alone.

okay thanks! Glad it's a normal thing

also it's not like my battery is draining stupidly fast, I mean like I said, I should be getting about 9 hours today on my current track, which is great by me!

I often have circa 90% of my battery eaten by the display on my Sensation.

I had my brightness set to maximum, and the display ate 82% of the battery...
