i agree with imnuts and mstevens. your battery not holding charge may have just been a bad battery. but based on what you said, you also have to think about how much use time your phone gets from you. because i know when i just got my tp2, by barely using it the first week or so, i was lucky to have a battery life of 24 hours. like i said, that was with very minimal use. but of course, over time, i've installed a few cabs and apps here and there. and my phone is also now getting a whole lot of play time from me. so when my phone has full charge in the morning, after lunch, i'll be down to 30%-20% battery charge.

before saying it's a phone defect, you have to make sure you tweak the settings so battery consumption is as minimal as you can get it.
