I believe the battery manufacturers have failed to take into account the constant use these devices have compared to older phones. It seems a lot of the apps require internet connectivity which drains the battery.

I supposed it is acceptible that the Arrive is not a 4G phone, otherwise I'd have to charge it twice a day!
apps don't run I. the background and drain battery like they do on Android unless u have them set to run under the lock screen. and the thing about LI-ION battery technology is the more capacity u want the bigger they will be. then u will be complaining about how bulky the device is. until there's a better and more efficient battery technology this is how its gonna be.
