Re: Touch Pro 2 battery?

I haven't received mine in the mail yet (T-mobile employee so I can't get it in a store), but my customers I've sold one to have been fairly happy with it. One customer did report poor battery life, but I'm chalking that up to her playing with the phone incessantly since she got it. We'll wait and see how she does once she is just using it normally.

It's not uncommon for a brand new lithium type battery to take a few full charges before you start getting the full battery life you can expect, so give it a few days and see if it doesn't improve.

Also there is a such thing as a dud battery. If you don't manage to see an increase after a few days, you might have a defective battery.

Re: Touch Pro 2 battery?

My Opinion coming from a Titan is the battery life is amazing. I carried 3 batterys with me at all times when using the Titan.

I love my TP2...

Re: Touch Pro 2 battery?

I just got a tp2 3 days ago and i will say the battery life is amazing the tp1 would only get like 4 hours of web surfing till it died, this bad boy will last 12 or more straight hours of use, it got off the charger at 6pm yesterday and its now 12pm the next day with 40% left.... its definantly a major step up. even with a bigger screen it smashes the battery life of the tp1..
