Battery life..
 

I've heard reports that battery life isn't exactly going to be spectacular (around a day's worth). Is that a day's worth of fulltime usage, or a day on standby? Because if it's a day of standby, I kind of hope that there's going to be a battery with more juice floating around sometime in the future..

[QUOTE=dansus;328493]Nah, with Joiku Spot on, i got 60mins. :p/QUOTE]

And a free hand warmer! I remember the N82 (despite being superior to the N95 in this regard) would run out of battery after a few hours whilst chargingand running Joiku Spot.

What would be useful is an app to only use 2G/2.5G connections when pinging/idle/updating emails; then turning on the 3G/3.5G connection when the web browser is loaded. Turing off 3G connections gave me about 50% more battery life on both my K800 and N82.

I'm fine with a day's life of *constant* use. What bothers me is whether or not that day's worth of battery life is for sleep/idle too, because I really don't want to be charging my phone daily. I have to do that now due to a bad battery, and I'd really like to move on to something better.

I'm test user of prototype of N900 with firmware version 41-13.

I'm very satisfied of the battery life with moderate use. The best result for me have been 60 hours. I have used all the features and the working days have been normal.

In heavy use I haven't seen any difference with earlier firmware versions. If I see a long movie and wlan continuously on then the battery holds 4 to 5 hours. In normal quite heavy use it holds easily 15 hours which is usually enough for me, cos I charge the battery every night anyway.

Re: N900 battery life
 

Can it hold 15 hours with only 3G or edge and no wifi? Its been mentioned that wifi is much easier on the battery than 3G.
Thanks!

Re: N900 battery life
 

I never tested to have only 3G on whole day, cos I've wlan at home and at work and I use every opportunity to use free wlans. I try to test that tomorrow. I suppose that should succeed.
