For all of you users that are complaining about battery life, can I assume that you you have charged and discharged the battery at least 4 to 5 times and are still having battery life problems?

I highly doubt that to be the case since the phone is so new. The battery needs to be conditioned and should NEVER be let to go below 20 or 25 percent during the break in period, if you expect to have a battery that holds a decent charge.

Today I was out of the house for 9 hrs and all I did was text and was on a phone call for all of 20mins. I don't believe too much thought was placed into the battery life of this phone. For a phone this powerful, how do u put the same type battery in it you would any other average Smart phone device? The size of the screen alone consumes more power! IDK, an extended battery may be in worked in the budget in the near future.
