Battery life?

I bought one last week and the first day played with it a lot. The battery was down to less than 30% when I quit for the day.

I use it mostly as a phone and to check email but will frequently hit the net with it if too lazy to get up and move six feet to my computer.

It's been off the charger for about 18 hours now and is still at 78%

I have good signal strength for bot phone and WiFi

So how's the battery life for this phone? I might be getting it soon so I'm just curious.

For my semi heavy usage, I get about 15 hours. I get way over 24hrs on light use. I'd think it'd be cool to see you around the Motion forums kage :D We have CM10, AOKP, Deodexed D, Deodexed E, Deodexed F, The Collab ROM (currently at version 3.0) and we are hoping to get a few themes soon :) Hope to see you on the Motion side kage! ;)
 
Really, Good compared to the Samsung Admire. I just got it yesterday, after having charge issues with my Admire. Lasted about a day & half has a power save mode too so that's helpful.
 
Ah ok that's good to know. For some reason my attain likes to die fast with 4g on so it's not reliable when I'm outside for long periods of time
 
its actually not bad as long as you get rid of widgets and use the brightness settings (the backlight is the number 1 killer) and if you dont use go apps also being rooted with v6 tweaks helps alot. if you just use the phone as a phone it lasts for more than two days but other than that your kinda left to use a startup manager or use no frills cpu app to control your throttling

Yeah me I don't like bright screens so I usually set brightness to the lowest setting and i never use widgets. If I do it's just one weather widget and i see the amount of ram go apps so I just stay away from those.
