Exactly. Smartphones are not something that the average user is going to be able to use for several days without charging like most dumb phones, or two days with whatever they call the semi smart phone wannabe's now.

HOWEVER, I find no excuse for shipping a phone in a state that without far more than basic phone knowledge can not be left in stand-by mode for 6 hours, let alone struggle through a basic 10 hour day without seeing a charger!
Rarely do I have a day that involves more than 20 min of talk time, 10-30 regular txt messages, sometimes 5-10 pic/vid messages. No excuse for a phone not being able to make it through that kind of lightweight daily work...


Obviously changing network mode to anyone on the internet is trivial, but ask yourself how many people know wtf gms or cdma is that will buy this phone!
