Re: HTC bringing VGA displays to sprint: Raphnel and Diamond

My assumption is that the new processor's die-shrink is being taken into account with the new battery life. A smaller processor improves power usage, oftentimes to extreme levels. Granted, the new processor is also a little faster, but still, it should run on less energy than the old one. But a VGA screen should draw more power, arguably, due to the extra processing required to handle it.

My guess is with general improvements they've managed to get this phone to have life similar to what the stock batteries for the Mogul do. Which, from experience, was dreadful, and why I had to get the 3200mAh battery. So odds are it'll be the same scenario here, where we'll all need to upgrade as soon as Seidio finishes the battery.
