Battery life
 
I looked but didn't see a topic on this. Sorry if I missed it.

I pull mine off the charger around 6:30am and it's usually just about dead by 5pm. At first I played with it a lot trying to get used to it but now I just use it moderately and it seems as though the battery life is the same.

what kind of battery life are you all getting on it? I saw a few reviews online that said it had excellent battery life and last all day with heavy use. Mine won't last 5 hrs with heavy use

I've been really surprised by the battery life. My TP2 was awful, so I was hesitant about how well this would work.

But I can say confidently that I can get a full 24 hours out of mine. That's with texting, GPS, using the FM Radio, as well as e-mails and internet browsing. The only real thing that kills my battery is when I play the XBOXLive games such as ilomilo.

I take it off about 6am and I don't get the pop up warning its about to die until about 11pm or so. That with listening to zune for 7 or so hours at work, texting, and playing impossible shoota for like 10 minutes.

My weather and email sync once an hour.

Battery life is excellent on my end. I went about two days the other day with moderate usage. I'm extremely happy with battery life. This is with a fresh out the package Evo battery, when conditioned via three full life cycle. Life cycle=fully++ discarded and fully charged.

I have excellent battery life with moderate use. However, for some reason when I have a texting conversation going on..I pretty much watch my battery bar drop as often as I send a new message.

Sounds like all of you have pretty good battery life. Maybe I just got a bad battery? Should I see if Sprint will replace it?

if possible factory reset and have a sprint corp store order a new battery. try an htc evo battery, there no official benefits.

Actually I take what I said earlier back, i'm not too sure what to think of my battery life so far. I've had a few good days but mostly bad. Today for instance is bad because I'm sitting at around 50% and I really haven't done much but demo the phone to a few people. I'm thinking it's gotta be bad service in my area? It's typically 1-2 bars where I live. Sometimes I can feel my phone getting warm in pocket (no it's not something else, i already checked!) for no reason. I updated PRL. I soft reset regularly because I'm paranoid about apps being open in the background and draining my battery. I see no difference in battery life between my tp2 battery and arrive battery. I performed a hard reset a few days ago. How is your service where you live?

I didn't think about service. My service sucks in my neighborhood but is great at work, which is where the majority of my time is spent. I took my phone off the charger today around 8:30am and I really haven't done much with it today and its at 50% now (2:15pm)
