awesome phone, although the battery life is s**t, couldnt take more than 3 hours of video and 600 photos on day 2 of WTAC

Agree about battery life

Even after two days and only having it on stand by the thing drops into the red.

I found if you turn the screen brightness right down it lasts about another 15 hours on average. I have my charger in my car anyway that i just plug into when i drive...which is like every 5 hours haha

I found that if you buy the battery case from "PowerSkin", you will get up to 2x the battery life

maybe i should just buy the case, but i just carry a spare battery haha but i hardly need it for some reason. the battery life on my htc desire hd is amazing, but my friend has the same phone but he has crappy battery life.

Comes. Down to what apps are running in the background and what your using on it

I use my one as a work phone so there is no apps apart from the factory ones on it.
I make two calls and the phone is all most dead

Battery life in touch screens is attrocious. Im lucky to get a day out of mine. Yet my old work phone... 5 days, easy.

Clearly too much time investing in app developement & being like crapple & not enough R&D done in battery world.

Or is it that anyone that makes significant breakthroughs in battery technology mysteriously dies in an oil related accident? f**king Americans.

I get a full 8 hour shift of music pumping as loud as it goes and the rest of the day with the phone active (i.e. whorebook, these forums etc etc) and still have enough to go another day if i dont use it bar calling/receiving.

Its even had a glass of water spilled on it and after letting it dry out for a day its back to brand spanking new. Ive had more problems with the old unbreakable nokia work phone i used to have - and those things last - lifetime warranty and everything.

The best thing about it is that its not with f**king telstra! Any phone is a good phone if its not with telstra, although voda is giving me the sh*ts with their internet bandwith, sometimes the net just wont budge for hours.

You get some good sh*t off Ben? Telstra is one of, if not the worst customer service company in Australia. I'm sure a few other million people will backthis up. Their slightly netter coverage in stead that don't matter to me does not come close to waiting in any shop for 30min waiting to be served or being on hold for 2 hours while they fix yet another billing fuckup. Would go no phone before Telstra lol. That's my 2 cents

I'd rather suffer poor coverage than deal with Telstra. They're c**nts, will never use them. Besides, Vodafail are just about to rollout the 850 network which will pwn all. They're the first telco to leverage the fibre hubs.
