I dont think you can get 4 days while using wifi none stop, even on a blackberry....but overall backberry is much lighter, less services running, more locked down, weaker processors and none touch screen(unless its a storm or a torch)..hence less battery usage

Thing about emails and blackberry is it uses GPRS or 1x push which works similar to text messages..if you use an email that utilizes 3g for push or pull it will sue up a lot more energy.


I have heard people getting 84 hours or so battery life with Galaxy S phones though...
