Re: Epic as MP3 player- Hows the battery life

Im one of those iphone haters but I have to give it props for being rated at 40 hours of music playback (not sure if it holds up to that though)

The Iphone 4 has a 1200mah battery whereas the Epic has a 1500 mah, but for some reason I don't think the Epic could compete with the 40 hours..

Any experiences? thoughts?
I've never seen audio playback comparison's but the video playback comparison chart I saw was that the iPhone4 claimed 10 hours of video playback (theoretical) and that the Galaxy S was 7.5 hours of ACTUAL playback.

So I think if you used the same ratio for music, it would be 40 hours for the iPhone and 30 hours for the Galaxy S.

The difference of course is that widgets change the battery life dramatically, so it will be different for each user depending on the number of widgets being run.
