EVO Battery Drain Issue?!

I don't know if this was posted here before or not, but this link was in my RSS Feeds on my TP2.

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columni...aig27_ST_N.htm



What's up with that?

Re: EVO Battery Drain Issue?!

What's up with what? Is there anything here that hasn't been reported on exhaustively already?

Re: EVO Battery Drain Issue?!

posted in other 'reviews' as well. most common answer is its due to the phone constantly searching for 4g when there is no 4g around. (a feature that can be turned off) and as others have pointed out, probably because the batteries are not 'conditioned' yet.

i dunno. i'll wait to make my own assessment.
